Live from Broadcast City: Uniwide Sales' Battle of the Brains!


***
Q: Where is the Broadcast City located?
A: Capitol Hills, Diliman, Quezon City
***




I know you know that background music and that familiar voice-over... It's Uniwide Sales' Battle of the Brains.. and now your host, Mr. David Celdran! Too bad the show went off air due to sponsorship issues. Excluding the quiz show on Student Canteen, Battle of the Brains is the only quiz show of its kind. No fuss, like Jeopardy. The LG Quiz show was a far outcry - just fancy, not enough substance.



Yeah, that's me alright with my schoolmates,sisters and David Celdran,the host of the defunt Battle of the Brains, after winning the 2nd weekly eliminations for April 1994 . How come the big networks don't wanna produce game shows like this anymore? For those of you who watched that game show, do you ever recall that huge timer during the bonus round? Hehe. Winning the gameshow was my first paycheck , 1,030 pesos (we got around 4k). I remember buying Sterling Snoopy notebooks (or was it Catleya?), Pilot pens (was never a fan of Tombow,such a cheap imitation) and a fancy pop-up pencil case.

We lost to Bennedictine Abbey in the monthlies, but they totally deserved that since they ended up competing in the Grands. And you thought I was just good with jologs movies and songs!!! :p

Kuya Germs, this blogsite is for you.

Yes, Pinoys who will say "ewww, that's jologs" are definitely welcome to browse, for I know you got what it takes survive all the ka-cheapan contained herein.

This is Pinoy Jologs in its purest form.

I bet people who know my love affair with anything jologs - Cinema One, PBO, Body Dancer and Rico Mambo, will not be surprised that I chose Kuya Germs to represent this jologs blog. He is the epitome of Pinoy Jologs, and I mean that in a good way!!! Special thanks,too, to Caloy, who discovered my jologs talent. Hehe :) He has put up an IRC Undernet channel - nostalgiamanila and acts as a stage mother for nostalgiamanila.blogspot.com, but his approach is more classy and nostalgic, mine is plain and simple jologs!

I am a self-proclaimed Pinoy pop trivia queen. My sister,Raina, is one,too! Superfren Momel, Juggie, Momon, Rhoda - we are all part of the jologs family. Together we create a world where Maricel Soriano and Tito Vic and Joey are icons. And yes again, there is a difference between classic and jologs trivia - for I'll just turn my back and ignore you if you ask me for Gloria Romero's first movie. Pinoy jologs trivia is more like those teeny-weeny details that we love to hate with anything showbiz. Still don't get what I mean????

What is the unofficial theme song of Connie Reyes On Camera?

The answer: It's My Turn by Diana Ross


Yun lang, Happy Reading!!! :)
