Headwriter Darla Sauler has addressed the concerns of viewers regarding the frequent replay of episodes of the ABS-CBN Sunday variety show ‘ASAP Natin ‘To.’
On X (formerly Twitter) last Sunday, a fan who had just tuned in complained about the replays.
Darla Sauler promptly responded, providing an explanation for the repeated episodes, saying, “Wala po kaming franchise. As i have said again and again. Walang budget. Magreplay or no more ASAP at all. You see, for everyone else tapos na ang issue ng nawala franchise. But for us, never ending.”

She also added, “Yes po. As much as we want na no replays para may sweldo rin mga tao, at maglive audience na. Hindi pa po kaya. ☹️”

The ABS-CBN shutdown had a significant impact on the network’s ability to produce new shows. The company was compelled to lay off numerous employees, including many from the creative department, resulting in a reduced workforce available for developing and producing new content.
Despite these challenges, ABS-CBN has rebounded and is now producing a diverse range of shows. It remains a prominent force in the Philippine media landscape, delivering high-quality content that continues to captivate millions of Filipino viewers.
