It’s officially goodbye for a popular daily noontime show as the television network that launched it decided to replace it starting this Saturday.

In an official statement, ABS-CBN said that “Pilipinas Win Na Win would take the place of “Wowowee.”

“Ang Pilipinas Win Na Win ay papalit sa Wowowee [Pilipinas Win Na Win will replace Wowowee],” the network said.

It described the new program as a “game and variety show that would give Filipinos happiness and hope wherever they may be,” the network said.

It added that former “Wowowee” host Willie Revillame has been informed of the development through his manager.

"Si Willie Revillame, sa pamamagitan ng kanyang manager, ay nasabihan na tungkol sa pagbabagong ito,” ABS-CBN said.

It said that Revillame has also been informed of the new program that would be given to him to be announced at the right time.

The new show will have action star Robin Padilla and Kris Aquino as its hosts, along with former mainstays of “Wowowee” Mariel Rodriguez, Valerie Concepcion and comedian Pokwang.

Padilla became a temporary host of “Wowowee” for a week following Revillame’s abrupt leave from the show after a much publicized dispute with showbiz radio commentator Jobert Sucaldito.
