TV host Boy Abunda made the rounds online after netizens claimed that he’s making his showbiz return via a talk show on GMA Network.
On December 7, the Kapuso network posted a teaser about a ‘showbiz icon’ returning to the Network.
The photo showed a pink wing chair with the caption: “Handa na BA ang lahat para sa HOMECOMING ng isang SHOWBIZ Icon? 
Abangan ang kanyang pagbabalik sa GMA coming soon!”
Netizens then expressed their excitement as they claimed that King of Talk Tito Boy is making his comeback on the GMA network with a talk show.
GMA's IG post seems to allude to Boy Abunda's return to television on their network. We will see again the all-knowing Tito Boy on free television. We will witness once again his palpable grandeur that always overdhadows his guests!!!

On the other hand, some netizens were happy that Tito Boy left ABS-CBN. But some questioned GMA’s decision to accept Tito Boy.
HAHA This. For the likes of Boy Abunda, Karla E., may reasons bakit ‘di na sila ni-renew ng ABS at bakit ayaw na sa kanila ng Kapamilya. Tas kukunin ng GMA? Ano ‘to? HAHAHA
Pwede baaa kung manunulot or kukuha ng artista, yung sure na magiging asset ng network man lang sana. HAHA https://t.co/qFll5kVGQd

In an interview on November 14, Abunda shared that he’s torn between choosing ABS-CBN or the GMA Network. However, with GMA Network’s recent teaser, the TV host seemed to have made up his mind.
