The Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB) has denied the motion of reconsideration filed by the ABS-CBN’s “It’s Showtime” after the noontime show was slapped with a 12-day suspension.
The said suspension stemmed from an alleged indecent incident during the show’s “Isip Bata” segment last July 2023.
MTRCB released the following statement:
“The Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB) released a resolution dated 28 September 2023, denying the Motions for Reconsideration (MR) filed by GMA Network, Inc. and ABS-CBN Corporation.
Said MRs sought relief from the Board’s ruling dated August 17, 2023, regarding the July 25, 2023 episode of the live noontime television program “It’s Showtime!” Specifically, during the show’s “Isip Bata” segment, in which hosts Ryan Bang, Vice Ganda and Ion Perez allegedly acted indecently or inappropriately in the presence of children, which is alleged to have violated Chapter IV Section 2 (b) (1) of the 2004 Implementing Rules and Regulations of the Presidential Decree No. 1986.
In view of which, the Board’s Decision dated 17 August 2023 is affirmed.”
