Author Topic: ‘Batibot’ returns after 2 decades (Read 10145 times)

I wonder who they'll replace Pong Pagong with? Hindi ba at nung last few years ng Batibot, they "retired" his character and replaced it with a similar-looking one, after the license from Sesame Street (which owned the rights to Pong Pagong) expired and was no longer renewed by the Philippine producers? Remember, Batibot started as "Sesame", featuring clips from the U.S. show interspersed with the local show's.

God, I'm old.

Nung natapos ang Batibot, naging experimental si Bodjie Pascua sa mga stage at film roles niya. I am sure he will be picky (to maintain a wholesome image) from now on.

Unless the Pinoy producers find a way (and the moolah) to buy the copyright to Pong Pagong and Kiko Matsing character's from Sesame Street USA, there's absolutely no way the current gen of Pinoy kids will be seeing those two on Batibot.

They have the moolah. It's just that they prefer spending it on Willie.
