Patuloy na mapapanood sa GMA-7 ang "Eat Bulaga" matapos na pumirma muli ng kontrata ang mga dabarkads sa Kapuso station.
Dumalo sa virtual contract signing sina GMA Network CEO Atty. Felipe Gozon, President and COO Gilberto Duavit Jr., GMA EVP and CFO Felipe S. Yalong, GMA Chairman Annette Gozon-Valdez, at TAPE Inc. President and CEO Mr. Antonio “Tony” Tuviera.
Kabilang sa EB dabarkads na dumalo rin sa virtual contract signing sina Senador Tito Sotto, Bossing Vic Sotto, Joey De Leon, Wally Bayola, Jose Manalo, Ryan Agoncillo, Pauleen Luna Sotto, Ryza Mae Dizzon, Jimmy Santos, Allan K., at Alden Richards.
"We, in GMA, are honored to be chosen once again by TAPE to be the home TV station of Eat Bulaga, a very popular TV program," ayon kay Atty. Gozen.
"Many have tried to beat Eat Bulaga, the longest running number one tv program in the Philippines," patuloy niya.
Sabi pa ni Atty. Gozon, "being the number one noontime TV program, it is only logical that Eat Bulaga is shown on GMA-7, a number one TV station in the Philippines."
"And so we are looking forward to many more years of mutually beneficial and rewarding partnership with TAPE in airing Eat Bulaga in GMA-7," dagdag niya.
Samantala, inihayag naman ni Mr. Duavit na, "It is a great privilege and a great honor and a source of great happiness for all of us na tayo’y magkakasama at patuloy pa rin na magsasama-sama."
"Kaming lahat ay tagahanga ninyo and it is always a distinct pleasure to have a partnership that has lasted for so long and that continues to even strengthen, deepen, and prove to be even stronger," dagdag niya.
Ayon naman kay Ms. Annette, "Kung may forever mukhang ito na ito. Thank you Eat Bulaga for the trust."
Ikinalugod din at nagpasalamat si Mr. Tuviera sa panibagong kasunduan sa GMA-7.
"You gave us a reason to continue our vision on television," saad niya.
Nagpapasalamat din sina Tito, Vic, at Joey sa 27 taong nang pagiging Kapuso ng dabarkads. —FRJ, GMA News.
