NO TO FRANCHISES POLICY ng GMA7 - what went wrong?

[VE_RI_TAS]

Statement ng ABC-5 sa 'Philippine Idol'

Author: People's Tonight

“WE wanted Philippine Idol on our own terms or not at all. Fremantle has apparently found what they think is a better deal. We were only willing to buy Idol, and not any other programs packaged with it, or other Frermantle formats.

“Also, we told Fremantle that based on our learnings from season one, we wanted some modifications, like in the audition process, production and interactivity. We thought Fremantle had agreed to these.

“Talks with Fremantle may have slowed down when Mr. (Tonyboy) Cojuangco was taken ill and had to go back and forth to the U. S. for medical treatment. That must have been the time another party came in. We're glad, though, that Mr. Cojuangco is fine now. “GMA-7 was in a position to make a better offer. It's a giant. We're just Jack trying to climb the beanstalk. Also, where we wanted only American Idol and Philippine Idol, GMA agreed to pick up a number of other formats aside from Celebrity Duets, which must have been the foot in the door to Fremantle.

“We grant that it was a business decision on the part of Fremantle. The Philippines has become a lucrative market for format franchising since Pearson/Fremantle targetted Asia for its expansion drive late nineties and early 2000. It is to be expected that suppliers will go for the better deal.

“Note that ABC-5 was one of the firsts, if not the first to buy formats. We're just being true to what has been our role in the TV industry from the start. To break new ground. To set new trends. To be the innovator. From Tropang Trumpo to Philippine Idol.

“We must be doing something right because GMA which, until recently, had strongly said NO TO FRANCHISES, turned around and went after Philippine Idol.

“In a statement issued in June, 2006, apparently with reference to Pinoy Big Brother and Philippine Idol, GMA said among others: 'We don't need to buy a foreign franchise and get other people's ideas. '

“So, now there's a new battle front for the two giants: Franchises. ABS-CBN has Endemol, so GMA has to have its counterpart. And who else but Fremantle and the jewel in the crown — IDOL.

“If it's true GMA plans to obliterate Philippine Idol 1, too bad for Mau (Marcelo) who has huge talent. But ABC-5 will always have the distinction of having FIRST brought American Idol and Philippine Idol to the Philippines, of having mounted a highly successful, world-class production which was roundly praised even by Fremantle. For covetous local TV, it became the MUST-HAVE SHOW.

“So, we lost Philippine Idol. Excuse us while we look for new ground to break for local television. ”

GMA-7 Acquires Exclusive Rights to Shaider's Philippine Remake

GMA-7 ripped-off Smallville's storyline for their Captain Barbell show, then denied that they had copied the costumes of Sailor Moon for their Super Twins series. They even tried to pass the Asian Treasures lead stars as Indianna Jones and Lara Croft.

So after being tired of ripping off, GMA-7 ate their words of not buying licenses or franchise rights abroad and bought Lupin III. Quoting Ms. Wilma Galvante from an Inquirer interview,

"... In this scenario where foreign franchises are gearing up for battle, GMA 7 says it has opted to bat for homegrown talent search shows.

Wilma Galvante, GMA 7 senior vice president for entertainment TV, says the network “doesn’t need to buy [a foreign franchise and] to get other people’s ideas.”

She is referring to the licensing fees that other networks have to pay to produce and air local versions of foreign material.

Unlike foreign franchises, Galvante points out, their homegrown shows make their own rules.

“I don’t have to follow any bible of franchise owners,” she says, referring to the program clones. “For example, along the way, we can factor in other features.”

After Lupin, GMA-7 has now acquired the exclusive rights to the Japanese Metal Hero, Shaider. And they are set to remake the Japanese metal hero to the Philippine market... oh lord...

GMA-7 acquires exclusive rights to "Shaider"
Dinno Erece
Tuesday, May 8, 2007

Shaider, or Uchuu Keiji Shaider (English translation: Space Sheriff Shaider), is a Japanese live action series that originally ran in Asahi TV Japan noong 1984. Sa Pilipinas, it was first broadcast and dubbed in Filipino sa IBC-13 noong 1992 ,then re-telecast sa GMA-7 noong 2003. It's last syndicated run was in Hero TV, cartoon channel of ABS-CBN, two years ago. It had 48 original episodes.

Tulad ng isa pang popular Japanese work na Lupin, nakuha rin ng GMA-7 ang rights ng Shaider. Isa isa ito sa mga susunod na primetime shows ng Kapuso Network.

Dominic Zapata is set to direct the Philippine version of Shaider after his Super Twins stint.

Ang StarStruck 3 Ultimate Sole Survivor na si Marky Cielo ang nakatakdang gumanap sa papel na Shaider. Ang StarStruck 4 Ultimate Female Survivor namang si Kris Bernal ang napipisil na gumanap na Annie.

Si Jay Manalo naman ang gaganap sa main villain na si Commander Kom. He will have five female assistants—four of which will be Bianca King, Isabel Oli, Arci Muñoz, and Iwa Moto.

Ang Shaider din ang magiging follow-up primetime show ni Raymart Santiago after Narito Ang Puso Ko with Jolina Magdangal.

Sa original version ng Shaider, ang main character bilang Shaider/Dai Sawamura ay ginampanan ni Hiroshi Tsuburaya. Sa Philippine version nito ay ginawang Alexis del Mundo ang pangalan ng alter-ego ni Shaider. Si Annie naman ay ginampanan ni Naomi Morinaga. Namatay si Hiroshi noong July 24, 2001 sa edad na 37 dahil sa liver cancer.

Balitang ang Shaider ang papalit sa Asian Treasures nina Angel Locsin and Robin Padilla na magtatapos next month.

I wonder what version would look like the remake, the original or the Pinoy version. Call this crab mentality but accept the fact, GMA-7's track record with special effects aren't even that good compared to decades of Japanese special effects. And expect Shaider to fell in love with Annie and all the love-couple-suckyness you would expect from GMA-7's writers.

I can't imagine how Shaider's Vavilos would look like.

Ohh the horror!

Yuweh, stay away from this thread!

[kapamilya rulz]

BOOM!!!

hahahahaha

[VE_RI_TAS]

at nanahimik ang lahat..nag iisip pa ba kung ano ba talaga ang nangyari?

[Angel_Calamares]

“There is no hard feeling between Fremantle Media and ABC 5,” according to Ms. Terra Dafon, ABC-5’s Corporate Affairs Head sa pagkakalipat ng Philippine Idol sa GMA-7.From ABC-5 side, kinumpirma ni Ms. Daffon na wala na nga ang Idol franchise sa kanilang station. Naibigay na ang rights ng second season nito sa GMA-7.

Tinawagan ng PEP (Philippine Entertainment Portal) ang ABC-5 to get their side in the matter and what happened between the first season and the hiatus of Philippine Idol. “First of all, Fremantle commended us for putting up a world-class show during the first season,” paumpisa ni Ms. Daffon. “Year to year basis ang pagbili ng rights. For the second season, we started negotiating by giving our side of the offer, some suggestions and modifications for the next season like sa voting procedure, some format changes.

“Now, ang mga U.S. suppliers of show, madalas ang offer by package. With a backing of a prime show [like the Idol franchise], they try to package other not so fast-selling products [programs].

“I really have no idea who offered what,” patuloy ni Ms. Daffon. “Maybe Fremantle offered a package sa GMA and the station bought the whole package including some shows, or maybe GMA gave a better offer. So the next thing we knew, we don’t have the right of the second season anymore.

“Ang package sa amin noon together with the franchise was the American Idol show itself which we broadcast. Maybe GMA also bought this one plus other shows. No, there is no hard feeling between us and Fremantle and we have nothing against GMA. It’s business after all.

“Kaya lang, may naalala ako noon na sinabi ng GMA pati ang ABS, that they don’t buy franchise, only homegrown shows. Kami, it has been part of our programming to buy canned shows and franchise so we started it. Now, ABS has Endemol and GMA will have the Idol franchise,” saad pa ng ABC-5 Corporate Affairs Head.

Hindi naman alam ni Ms. Daffon kung magagamit ng GMA-7 ang titulong Philippine Idol dahil ang ABC-5 daw ang may-ari nito.

“I have to get back to you on this, I want to talk to our lawyers first about the usage of the title. You cannot copyright Philippines naman. Ewan ko, that is something that hasn’t cross my mind—about the title,” pahayag pa ni Ms. Daffon sa PEP.

Wala raw sa position si Ms. Daffon to say yes or no kung puwedeng ibigay ang titulo sa GMA-7. Hindi niya rin alam kung pati nga ang American Idol ay nabili na rin ng Kapuso network as part of the package, pero wala ito sa list of programs nila for next year.

GMA-7’s SIDE. Samantala, kinumpirma rin ng SVP for Entertainment TV ng GMA-7 na si Ms. Wilma Galvante ang paglipat ng Philippine Idol sa Kapuso Network. Tinanong siya ng ilang entertainment press sa presscon ng Zaido kung totoo nga ang balita na sa GMA-7 na mapapanood ang second season ng Philippine Idol at umamin siya agad.

Ayon pa kay Ms. Galvante, package deal ang pagkuha nila ng Philippine franchise ng Idol, kasama ang iba pang shows ng Fremantle Media, kasama na ang Celebrity Duets na napapanood na ngayon sa GMA-7 hosted by Regine Velasquez and Ogie Alcasid. Ang American Idol judge na si Simon Cowell ang producer ng U.S. version ng Celebrity Duets.

Samantala, nabalitaan din ng PEP na kasabay ng paglipat ng Philippine Idol sa GMA-7 ay ang posibilidad na pumirma na rin ng exclusive contract ang first winner na si Mau Marcelo at ang finalist na si Jan Nieto sa Kapuso network. Ang isa pang finalist na si Gian Magdangal ay nasa GMA-7 bilang isa sa regular performers ng SOP.

Ang Idol franchise ay nagsimula sa Great Britain, na may titulong Pop Idol. Nagkaroon ito ng spin-offs sa mahigit tatlumpung bansa, kabilang na ang U.S. (with American Idol) at ang Pilipinas.

The first season of Philippine Idol was hosted by Ryan Agoncillo, with Ryan Cayabyab, Pilita Corrales, and Francis M. acting as judges. Wala pang balita kung sino ang maghu-host ng second season sa GMA-7 at kung sinu-sino ang magiging hurado.

Sa pamamagitan ng website ng Fremantle ay napag-alaman ng PEP na ang iba pang sikat na programa ng naturang TV company worldwide ay Poker Face, Distraction, The Price Is Right, The X Factor, Family Feud, at Got Talent. Nagkaroon ng Philippine franchise ang The Price Is Right at Family Feud na ipinalabas noon sa ABC-5.
