With Billy Joe Crawford and Xian Lim, TV5’s Newest Game Shows You Shouldn’t Miss
Indulge in heart-stopping thrill and laughter as the newest game shows liven up your home screens
TV5 ushers the beginning of the Summer Season with two fresh and exciting additions to its game show roster: The Wall Philippines and 1000 Heartbeats - Pintig Pinoy, produced by VIVA Entertainment, are set to be released just a week apart. The Kapatid Network offers a respite by adding to their impressive line-up of entertainment programs - infusing novelty and variety in their programming.
After being lauded as the Best Male Variety Show Host for TV5’s noontime program Lunch Out Loud, Billy Joe Crawford embarks on a new hosting feat as the face of The Wall Philippines, his third running show under the Kapatid network.
The Wall is like a giant pachinko game with a twist. The mechanics are simple: get a correct answer to get a GREEN ball, miss a question, and get a RED ball; green adds to the total pot money while red deducts. The game is played by two players with a close familiarity, with the first episodes featuring blood-related contestants. The pair works as a team to bank as much money they can by answering a series of questions. After the third round is a decision round, where drama and hilarity ensues.
Each of the contestants will be alloted 1000 heartbeats as its equivalent of a time limit to answer a set of questions. With the help of a monitoring equipment, the players’ heart rates will be recorded throughout the game, upon which the game is declared over once all 1000 heartbeats are registered. Conversely, the way to win the cash prize is by keeping their cool under pressure in all seven rounds.
Both shows exhibit a surge of critical thinking and titillation because of their strategy-reliant nature, with The Wall Philippines being more inclined to strengthen relationships 1000 Heartbeats gauging one’s grace and endurance under pressure.
The Wall Philippines is set to premiere on Saturday, March 13 at 6PM on TV5.
1000 Heartbeats-Pintig Pinoy will air its pilot episode the succeeding week, on Sunday, March 21 at 8PM.
Viewers can access both TV5 via the Cignal Play app. Download for FREE for Android and iOS users.

Watch the Next Big Star on TV5
(MANILA, Philippines) – The search for the next big star was marked by the return of Born To Be A Star which premiered last 30 January featuring a fresh set of talents and new judges that will make you look forward to watching the show on weekends.
Produced by VIVA Entertainment for Cignal TV and TV5, the latest reality talent search puts a spotlight on aspiring and talented individuals from across the Philippines. At stake is a P1 million cash prize and a recording and management contract under VIVA Entertainment.
The singing reality show is hosted by breakthrough singer-actress Kim Molina and multi-talented actor Matteo Guidicelli, who both worked together as judge detectives in the recently concluded program Masked Singer Pilipinas. The show also boasts of star-studded panel of judges (“Star Judges”) who will be deliberating the contestant’s progress throughout the show: Philippine Rap Legend Andrew E, Asia’s Vocal Supreme Katrina Velarde, OST Princess and former Born To Be A Star finalist Janine Tenoso, G-Force founder and choreographer Teacher Georcelle Sy, and multi-talented singer Sam Concepcion.
The audition process of the talent search is a lot different from the usual, given the current limitations brought about by the pandemic. Auditionees were asked to submit videos through Tiktok. Out of the hundreds who submitted, only 40 applicants were shortlisted for the TV try-outs. Contestants slayed the stage with their song and dance numbers to get three or more stars from the Star Judges so they can make it to the next round.
The journey of each contestant to achieve the dream of becoming a star will not be a walk in the park. From 40 auditionees, only 21 of them will move on to the training camp where the program’s Star Mentors will be working with them to bring out their full star potential. The next two episodes of the show are a must-see as the remaining contenders will undergo a boot camp training session with Thyro, Wency Cornejo, and Daryl Ong -- dynamic talents known for their expertise in singing, songwriting, and artistic performance. The mentors will be imparting their share of experiences and lessons learned to the finalists vying for the top title of being the next big thing in Philippine show business -- made even more desirable with the promise of new project opportunities and a sweet 1M cash prize.
Who’s going to shine brighter and stand out from the rest? Follow the aspiring stars of Born To Be A Star every Saturday, 7 PM on TV5 and a catch-up airing every Sunday, 8 PM on Viva Entertainment’s SARI-SARI Channel on Cignal TV CH. 03. Also available on SatLite CH. 30 and on Cignal Play on Android and iOS and cignalplay.com.
