It’s Showtime‘s hashtag #WeFoundShowtime became the top trending topic online as netizens lauded the noontime show’s commitment to continue airing despite the ECQ reimplementation.
On Monday, August 9, It’s Showtime aired its live episode via Clark Freeport Zone in Pampanga as their Quezon City studio got shuttered by the lockdown measures.
On August 6, the National Capital Region (NCR) got placed in ECQ that required stricter measures on businesses, transportation, and movement of people to prevent the spread of the deadly COVID-19 Delta variant.
Before revealing the show’s live broadcast–the mainstays dropped hints of their whereabouts through their social media accounts via #FindingShowtime.
It prompted the netizens to guess where the hosts and production will conduct their live broadcast.
It was only revealed on Monday when It’s Showtime host Vice Ganda announced that they are holding daily live episodes from Pampanga.
On behalf of It’s Showtime, Vice Ganda then thanked Sec. Karlo Nograles, co-chair of the national task force on COVID-19, and Vince Dizon, Bases Conversion and Development Authority president and CEO; ensuring the safety of their production.
“Naririto kami para maituloy-tuloy namin ang pagseserbisyo sa inyo nang live, dahil alam namin na lalo pa’t ECQ sa NCR, kailangang-kailangan pagaanin namin ang inyong kalooban, at pangitiin at aliwin at libangin namin kayo, para mabawasan kahit paano ang inyong mga pangamba at bigat sa pakiramdam,” said Vice Ganda.
It’s Showtime aired its usual segment Reina ng Tahanan as well as Madlang Pi-Poll.
With the hashtag #WeFoundShowtime, netizens then expressed their good wishes for the noontime show as they embark on a new environment to be able to continue their service for the people.
People commended It’s Showtime‘s commitment to bringing a live episode for its viewers despite the restrictions of the pandemic.

Seeing how passionate and determined ABS CBN is in making the madlang people happy, that they're willing to transfer to another place just to do live shows for It's Showtime speaks volumes. They really really deserve a franchise. Kaya, #IbalikAngABSCBN! ❤️#WeFoundShowtime
