Michael V. aka Bitoy Reveals Reaching Out to Axed Cast Members of Bubble Gang

Bubble Gang revamps? Here’s a statement from Bitoy

MICHAEL V. – The comedian who’s also known as Bitoy revealed that he reached out to the axed members of Bubble Gang.

Bubble Gang is considered the longest-running gag show in the Philippines. It debuted on October 20, 1995 and still airing on GMA-7’s Friday night timeslot.

One of the pioneering casts of the show is no less than Michael V.

However, the management of the show decided to revamp Bubble Gang. This means some cast members need to be axed.

Among the stars who were laid off are the following: Mikoy Morales, Denise Barbacena, Liezel Lopez, Arra San Agustin, Lovely Abella, Ashley Rivera, Diego Llorico, Myka Flores, and Antonio Aquitania.

Although it might be temporary, Michael V. shared that he reached out to axed cast members of the show.

In a Zoom press conference, he said: “Ako, I felt the need to explain to them somehow, give them an insight kung bakit siguro nagkaroon ng ganoong dahilan.”

“Unang-una para hindi talaga sumama yung loob nila, and, at the same time, para ma-inspire sila na hindi naman ito yung pagtatapos talaga,” he added.

Starting May 27, 2022, the show will revamp.

Chariz Solomon, Betong Sumaya, Sef Cadayona, Valeen Montenegro, Archie Alemania, Analyn Barro, Faye Lorenzo, Kokoy de Santos, and Paolo Contis are the retained cast members of Bubble Gang.

The show which is now directed by former Kapamilya director Frasco Mortiz will introduce new cast members such as Tuesday Vargas, Faith Da Silva, Dasuri Choi, and Kim de Leon.
