The "Kapatid" kingdom is buzzing! With TV5’s 2026 programming slate looking more "TodoMax" than ever, a persistent rumor has ignited the fandom: Is the Sunday 12NN musical variety show making a grand comeback?
For years, the Sunday noontime slot has been a battleground of icons. While TV5 has successfully anchored its weekdays with Eat Bulaga, fans are clamoring for a dedicated Sunday stage. If the whispers are true, we might be looking at a revolution in our weekend habit.
A Legacy of Sunday Staples: From PO5 to SNL
PO5 in 2010
This wouldn't be TV5's first rodeo in the high-stakes world of Sunday variety. Long-time viewers fondly remember PO5 (Party on Five), which brought a gritty, high-energy alternative to the traditional formats back in the day. More recently, the network made waves with Sunday Noontime Live (SNL), a polished, star-studded production that proved the Kapatid network could deliver world-class musical spectacles.
If a new show pushes through, it carries the DNA of these past favorites but with a fresh, 2026 twist.
The Powerhouse Lineup: Vivarkada and Beyond
If this musical variety push moves forward, the Vivarkada is expected to be the heart of the show. We’re talking about the electric chemistry of AshDres (Ashtine Olviga and Andres Muhlach) and the undeniable charm of RabGel (Rabin Angeles and Angela Muji).
The Vivarkada crew brings a fresh,
Gen-Z energy that has already proven its worth in sold-out fancons. Seeing them headline a weekly variety show would be the natural next step in their evolution as the country's next big superstars.
MQuest Music and the Singing Queens: The Vocal Backbone
It’s not just about the screen presence; it’s about the vocals. The inclusion of MQuest Music Artists—the rising stars of the network's music arm—suggests a show that prioritizes OPM excellence.
Adding weight to the musical prestige are the Singing Queens. Known for their powerhouse performances on Eat Bulaga, bringing them into a Sunday musical format would provide that "diva-level" sophistication the 12NN slot demands. Imagine the vocal battles and grand medleys!
The Big Question: Can TV5 reclaim the Sunday noontime throne? With this roster, the odds are looking better than ever.
