Showtime had been suspended for 20 days by MTRCB but its replacement Magpasikat managed to keep the momentum with its first episode last Tuesday, January 11, 2009 based on AGB-Nielsen Mega Manila ratings.

Magpasikat is basically a quite reformatted Showtime with the same hosts Anne Curtis, Vhong Navarro, Kuya Kim Atienza, and Vice Ganda. What’s remarkable about it is that it was put together overnight, in just around 12 hours from suspension. Yes, the overall format did not go far from the original showtime, its performance in the ratings game did not, either. Magpasikat managed to score 16.9%, highest in its timeslot.
