It's Showtime was announced on October 7, 2009, when ABS-CBN registered the show's trademark and copyright. The show's trailer for the premiere was then released and it premiered as a talent competition program on October 24, 2009, under the name Showtime, airing Mondays to Saturdays before Wowowee, replacing Pilipinas, Game Ka Na Ba?, airing as lead-in for the network's noontime shows. The original hosts include Vhong Navarro, Anne Curtis, Kim Atienza, Jugs Jugueta and Teddy Corpuz, with Vice Ganda as the resident hurado (unevictable judge). In the third season, the show added former huradosBilly Crawford and Karylle as hosts.
In the first four seasons, Showtime's original competition format was that three groups, each made up of 2 to 25 members (with no age limit) perform a single performance, either a dance and/or song number. Before the performance, one group member is given 20 seconds to make an introduction before ending with the phrase "It's Showtime!". After the group's performance, the hurados, with the help of the studio audience, rate the group from 1 to 10. The group with the highest average score from the hurados wins the competition. The daily winner performs again to compete in the weekly finals. The winning weekly finalists advance to the monthly finals. The winning monthly finalists get the chance to complete in the grand finals. In the wildcard week, selected groups from the weekly and monthly finals are invited back to compete again for a slot in the grand finals.
Aside from the talent competition, Showtime also featured mini-segments that offers cash prizes to the studio audiences.
2010–present: As a noontime show
In October 2010, Showtime became a noontime show, serving as the lead-in program for Pilipinas Win Na Win which was pushed back to an early afternoon timeslot which lasted until February 11, 2011.[1]
On February 12, 2011, the program returned to its original timeslot to give way for Happy Yipee Yehey! and at the same day, Billy Crawford and Karylle joined the show.
On January 28, 2012, Showtime aired a special episode named "Thank you, Showtime" to end its two-year competition format with an impartial farewell.[2] It then went on hiatus as the program prepared to become a noontime show again for the second and current time to replace Happy Yipee Yehey!.[3][4] The drama series Mundo Man ay Magunaw and Kapamilya Blockbusters movie block took over the timeslot of Showtime from January 30 to February 3, 2012.

As part of the network's temporary programming changes, the program's timeslot was shortened on April 29, 2020. Subsequently, on May 5, 2020, It's Showtime, along with all other ABS-CBN programs, ceased broadcast operations.

2022–2023: TV5 simulcast
On July 6, 2022, according to a report from MJ Marfori of TV5's flagship newscast Frontline Pilipinas, it was announced that It's Showtime would have a back-to-back collaboration with TV5's noontime show Tropang LOL, formerly known as Lunch Out Loud.[54]Tropang LOL aired at 11 am until 12:45 pm, serving as a pre-programming to It's Showtime, which aired in a shortened timeslot from 12:45 pm to 3 pm.[55][56] This is the latest ABS-CBN-produced program to be simulcast on TV5 alongside ASAP Natin To, FPJ: Da King movie block, Magandang Buhay and ABS-CBN's Primetime Bida weeknight evening block.
On July 16, 2022, coinciding with their simulcast debut on TV5, the program refurbished its title card and opening theme song, as well as having a return to live studio audience after two years of suspension from March 9, 2020,[57] making the first variety show on Philippine TV to do so after two years. While Studio 3 was on undergoing renovations, the show temporarily utilized Studio 10, which is used for ASAP Natin 'To, until July 23 when they returned to its home studio two days later with a brand new club-themed set.[58]
On May 1, 2023, following the conclusion of Tropang LOL after nine months, It's Showtime returned to its original 12:00 noon timeslot with a three-hour airtime.[59] Not long after, TV5 announced its co-production venture with Tito Sotto, Vic Sotto, and Joey de Leon where they would air their noontime show later known under the placeholder title E.A.T. (now replaced by Eat Bulaga!) on the noontime slot previously occupied by It's Showtime. TV5 offered the 4:30 pm to 6:30 pm time slot to ABS-CBN for It's Showtime which the latter respectfully declined. ABS-CBN and TV5 then separately announced that It's Showtime would end its simulcast on TV5 on June 30.[60]
2023–2024: GTV simulcast
On June 20, 2023, ABS-CBN and GMA Network[k] announced on their respective social media accounts that It's Showtime would simulcast through GMA's sister network, GTV beginning on July 1.[61] A contract signing between the executives of ABS-CBN and GMA was held at SedaVertis North on June 28, with former guest co-hosts Iya Villania and Robi Domingo hosting the said event.[62] From September to November 2023, the simulcast of It's Showtime on GTV was temporarily limited to 2 hours every Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday as it made way for the network's live broadcast of NCAA Season 99.[63]
It's Showtime temporarily stopped its broadcast from October 13 to 27, 2023, to serve a 12-day suspension imposed by the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB). In its place, It's Your Lucky Day was aired. Upon its return on October 28, It's Showtime aired from 11:30 am to 2:30 pm every Monday to Friday and 12:00 noon to 3:00 pm every Saturday.[64] Its timeslot was later changed to 12:00 noon to 2:30 pm from Monday to Saturday. GTV's simulcast silently ended on December 31, 2024, as It's Showtime continues to air on the main GMA Network channel and AMBS-owned All TV.[65]
2024–present: GMA and ALLTV simulcast; return to former frequencies
On March 18, 2024, during the show's airing, a mysterious teaser popped out before commercial break stating: "Good News, Madlang People, Abangan!" (transl.Good News, Madlang People, Coming Soon!). Later on, ABS-CBN and It's Showtime's social media accounts posted a video featuring a reveal that would take place on air via Facebook and YouTube. Two days later, a media event where ABS-CBN and GMA Network signed a contract announced that It's Showtime would extend its simulcast to the latter's main channel, as well as on GMA Pinoy TV and Kapuso Stream.[66][67][68] The contract was signed at GMA Network Center Studio 7 that afternoon, with Villania and Domingo reprising their hosting roles from the previous contract signing event.[69] Because of this, the program's simulcast on Jeepney TV ended on April 5, 2024.
It's Showtime debuted on GMA Network on April 6, 2024, while retaining its simulcast on its sister channel GTV (until December 31, after one year and six months). It took over the timeslot of its former rival Tahanang Pinakamasaya, TAPE Inc.'s final noontime program on GMA during its 29-year run on the network. As a result, its opening theme reverted the pre-2020 lyrics but retained the additional lyrics after its move following its debut.
On February 27, 2025, ABS-CBN announced in a disclosure to the Philippine Stock Exchange that it would sell most of the Broadcast Center to Ayala Land for redevelopment, pending regulatory approval, where it will consolidate its operations along with its already built soundstages, post-production and production facility at the Horizon PEZA IT Park in San Jose del Monte, Bulacan and retaining 1.4 hectares (3.5 acres) of the property, the ELJ Communications Center.[73][74] The studio of It's Showtime was included in the sale.[75] The deal will take effect in December 2026.[76]

Show segments
As of July 21, 2025, the show currently airs three segments: MASAsagot Mo Ba?, Breaking Muse and Escort Mo, Show Mo and Tawag ng Tanghalan: Ika-9 na Taon.
Breaking Muse and Escort Mo, Show Mo air alternately on Mondays to Thursdays, with Breaking Muse airing every Monday and Wednesday, Escort Mo, Show Mo on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and a combined weekly finals on Friday.
Magpasikat (lit.'Show-Off') is the annual talent competition for all the hosts of It's Showtime. It is usually held either a week before the show's anniversary date, October 24, or during the week itself (although the 2021 to 2023 editions were held in November). The performances are evaluated by a special panel of hurados (judges).
MASAsagot Mo Ba?
MASAsagot Mo Ba? (with “masa” referring to the masses or working class, lit.'can you answer?') is a quiz segment that premiered on July 21, 2025, replacing Step... in the Name of Love. It features unusual questions about everyday objects, not typically found in quiz bee contests.
Two teams of three compete, answering in turns—first players go first, then second, then third. Players are seated on a jeepney-like set, complete with barkers and a driver, and they answer by pulling a string above their heads, similar to how jeepney passengers hold onto the rails while riding. Each correct answer earns one point, and the first team to score three points wins ₱20,000 and moves to the jackpot round. Losing teams receive a ₱10,000 consolation prize.
In the jackpot, each member answers a different question within 30 seconds. If the first player answers incorrectly, the team loses their chance to win the jackpot. For every correct answer, ₱10,000 is added to their pot. If all three answers are correct, an extra ₱50,000 is added, making the maximum possible pot ₱70,000. The final prize is shared with the studio audience.[87]
Breaking Muse and Escort Mo, Show Mo
Breaking Muse and Escort Mo, Show Mo are beauty pageant segments that premiered on June 30 and July 1, 2025, respectively, replacing Step... in the Name of Love. These segments parodies the tradition of muses and escorts in Filipino basketball leagues—individuals chosen to inspire and support their teams—and features civilian participants aged 18 to 30 who are "G.G.S.S" (gwapong-gwapo or gandang-ganda sa sarili), meaning highly confident in their appearance.[88]
Escort Mo, Show Mo was originally titled Escort of Appeals for its first nine episodes, with the new name taking effect on July 24, 2025 (episode 10 of the segment and episode 19 in total).
Tawag ng Tanghalan
Tawag ng Tanghalan is an amateur singing competition that aired on the ABS-CBN network from 1953 to 1972. It was first revived on March 8, 1987, and lasted until November 26, 1989. It was once again revived as a segment of the show on January 2, 2016, and has since produced fifteen seasons: nine regular seasons, two kids seasons, and four special seasons. Tawag ng Tanghalan is the show's longest-running segment, airing every day since its return in January 2016.
The ninth season, titled as Ika-9 na Taon, premiered on April 28, 2025, two days after the finale of All-Star Grand Resbak 2025.

Tumpakners
October 30, 2023 – January 5, 2024
In Tumpakners, the hosts are split into two groups, and each group must have a pair representative and that pair is given a category to match while being placed on the other's back. Once the hosts give their signal for the pair to answer, they must face each other and say their answers out loud. For instance, if a group's category is "sour soups," and the pairs of the current group in play say "sinigang" out loud, their answers are valid and the group will receive one point. Each group plays a turn at playing. The first team to score three points wins the game for the day and are tasked to award ₱10,000 to two pairs of the audience who is chosen at random, which are also tasked to play the game. In rare cases, the group with one point will be automatically declared winners for that day, and one pair will be selected to win the cash prize if the segment goes over time. Meanwhile, if both teams do not win, the hosts are required to award ₱5,000 to a random audience member. This segment was also used as the basis for the elimination round on the segment MeCHOOSE-MeCHOOSE.
MeCHOOSE-MeCHOOSE (stylized as meCHOOSE-meCHOOSE) is a game where a lucky player can win as much as ₱100,000 through chance and luck. It is the successor of RamPanalo. This segment debuted on November 18, 2023. This game is divided into two rounds: the elimination round and jackpot round.
Elimination Round: Selected hosts, including those from Showtime Online Ü, choose participants from a specific community for the game Tumpakners. Participants select envelopes containing the names of hosts and pair up, standing back-to-back. When signaled by the hosts, pairs face each other and respond to assigned categories. Correct answers make contestants eligible for the jackpot round, where the last remaining pair competes. If a contestant is eliminated, they still receive ₱1,000 for participating. This will go on until there is just one person left in the elimination round; that person will then move on to the jackpot round.
Jackpot Round: Similar to Eat Bulaga's "Laban o Bawi" segment, there are two sets of boxes: the first set consists of five boxes containing numbers 2, 4, 6, 8, or 10, representing the potential value the player can win. The second set contains four boxes with zeros, and the contestant must select one box from the first set to pair with the second set. After the selection, the five boxes are shuffled randomly at the back of the stage. Following the shuffle, the contestant's task is to position the chosen box they think contains the even numbers, whether it holds 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, or possibly zero, on the left side. Subsequently, all boxes are opened one by one, beginning from the far right to the left. For instance, if the box with the non-zero value '2' is on the far left side, while all four zeros are on the right, the contestant wins ₱20,000. The minimum prize the contestant can take home is ₱2, while the maximum is ₱100,000.
KaraoKids (a portmanteau of the words "karaoke" and "kids") is a game where players try to guess songs. Each day, four to five pairs of hosts will attempt to guess songs with the help of the kids from the group Batang Cute-Po, from the show's ongoing segment Isip Bata, as well as Mini Miss U grand winner Arianah Kelsey "Yes Girl" Lasam (known mononymously as "Kelsey") and finalists Enicka Xaria Orbe (known monomymously as "Enicka") and Briseis Ericka Quijano (known mononymously as "Briseis"), who will sing their assigned song while wearing headphones.
In the initial format, each pair will be tasked with selecting their kiddie partner from a fish bowl, and then guessing those songs while the kids sing their assigned song through headphones using a time-to-beat elimination; each pair will have two minutes to guess their assigned songs. The first pair establishes the time limit to be met by the second pair, and so on. If that pair is not defeated by the next pair, it will remain the current pair eligible to compete in the jackpot round. If there is a tie or more, the group that guessed their first song title the earliest will advance to the jackpot round. If there is a tie or more, the group with the earliest time to guess their first song title will proceed to the jackpot round, where the pair will receive ₱10,000. In the jackpot round, the winning pair can win up to ₱25,000 by correctly guessing their three assigned song titles. Each set has a range of prizes to be won, with the first song being easy and worth ₱5,000, the second being medium and worth ₱10,000, and the third being hard and worth ₱15,000. The pair will have two minutes to guess the song title; if they don't know it, they can pass and return to the song if there is still time. Take note that each song title will be sung by a different Batang Cute-Po member.
A new format was introduced featuring five pairs of hosts: each pair has one minute to guess songs performed by a KaraoKids member. Successfully identifying a song title earns the pair one point. The first pair to accumulate three points (decreased to two points from March 18, 2024, onwards) will advance to the jackpot round and will be given ₱10,000. In the jackpot round, the pair has a chance to win a grand prize of ₱50,000. The winning pair must guess three sets of song titles. Each set offers varying prize amounts, with the first song valued at ₱10,000. This song will be sung by a single KaraoKid member. The second song is worth ₱15,000, and it will be sung by two KaraoKids members. Lastly, the third song is valued at ₱25,000; it will be sung by all three KaraoKids members.
The pot won for the day be either randomly distributed to people with specific jobs (such as street sweepers, car mechanics, etc.) outside the studio, known as a "random act of kindness"; it will be assigned randomly to one host and broadcast on the next episode. Otherwise, the pot may be divided among a set number of people in the audience.
Showing Bulilit is based on both the kids' comedy show Goin' Bulilit and the former It's Showtime segment "Sine Mo 'To".
The game is divided into two rounds: in the first round, six pairs of hosts are tasked with guessing what movie, television series or theater play (either English or Filipino) the Showtime Kids are reenacting, with the host(s) providing a hint beforehand. The first pair to receive two points wins the round, receives an initial cash prize of ₱25,000, and advances to the jackpot round, where the winning pair must guess three original speakers of the kids' assigned monologues in one minute to win ₱50,000.
Bata-Bata Pick! (a portmanteau of the words "bata", meaning child and "bato bato pick", Filipino for rock paper scissors) is a segment similar to the previous segment "Mas Testing". In this segment, a group of players will compare two kids to see who performs best in a challenge given by the hosts. Each episode will feature three pairs playing together. There are two roles: the main player, who selects the kid they believe will excel in the challenge, and the alay (companion), who accompanies the player in case of punishment. After selecting the alay, the player chooses between two kids they think will perform the best in the challenge (e.g., flying a paper plane the farthest or singing "Happy Birthday" the longest). If both the player and the alay correctly guess the top-performing kid, they win ₱10,000 that will be given to the studio audience. If the pair guesses incorrectly, the alay will receive a punishment, and the prize will not be given to the studio audience. If there are no winning pairs for the day, the three losing pairs must donate ₱10,000 to the studio audience. Meanwhile, if all of the pairs escape punishment for the day, all hosts are eligible for that day's punishment.
Act Lang 'To! (lit.'This is just an act!') is a new game segment where a group of players must guess which one among three hosts is actually experiencing a specific challenge, such as sitting on a block of ice, stepping on a boot filled with slime, or holding a live cockroach. The game consists of three rounds, each featuring a different set of three pre-selected hosts facing unique challenges. During the challenge, all hosts must convincingly pretend they are the ones enduring the task, aiming to mislead the players. After the players make their guess, the hosts reveal the truth by declaring, "Act lang 'to!" if they were faking it. For every correct guess, ₱10,000 is added to the prize pot for the audience. If no money is earned, a fixed cash prize of ₱10,000 will be divided equally among a select group of audience members.
2015 (first iteration) January 27 – February 10, 2025 (second iteration)
Hulanino (a portmanteau of the Filipino words hula, meaning "guess," and anino, meaning "shadow") is a guessing game segment where the hosts — or originally, celebrity contestants — must determine what the shadow is trying to convey. This segment debuted in 2015 and originally featured celebrity guests as players.
In the game, two groups, each led by a team captain, compete to guess five actions provided by their team. Team members act out the actions behind a screen, using only their shadows, while one member is tasked with guessing. Each game lasts for two and a half minutes (three for the first episode), and for every correct answer, a cash prize of ₱5,000 is awarded to the studio audience, with a maximum prize of ₱25,000. The winning group is determined by the number of correct answers and the fastest time to guess their last word if both groups are tied. The introduction of new mechanics took place on February 5, 2025. A primary host and a Showtime Kids member will be assigned to each team. While the children guess what the hosts are acting out, the main host will describe what the other hosts are acting out. The shadow cannot be seen by the Showtime Kid.
2015 (first iteration) February 11 – April 5, 2025 (second iteration)
Ansabe (a play on the Filipino phrase "Ano'ng sabe?" or "What did you say?") is a guessing game where players attempt to guess a set of words based on mouth movements. The original hosts included Kim Atienza as Minister Kim Chi, Ryan Bang as Prince Bang Hyun Sung, and Jhong Hilario as Lee Min Jhong. Similar to Hulanino, this segment debuted in 2015 and originally featured celebrity guests as players.
In this iteration, all hosts, including the Showtime Kids, will be divided into three groups: Teams A, B, and C. Each group have a designated leader and a "BuliLip (Bulilit Lip) Reader", who will be responsible for guessing a set of five words. These words will be read individually by five team members. The "BuliLip Reader" and will be placed far from the other hosts. Each game lasts for two minutes. Every correct guess earns ₱5,000 for the studio audience. The winning group is determined by the highest number of correct answers, with the fastest time to guess the first word serving as the tiebreaker if two or all three groups are tied. Lastly, the group with the worst performance of the day receives a punishment.
Beginning February 13, 2025, the hosts were required to select two Showtime Kids at random, with the first assigned the "BuliLip Reader" and the second as their "Bulilit Member". They would still need to choose their sequence and set of words.
KidSONA: Songs of the Nation Address is a singing and guessing game show. The game is inspired by both the annual State of the Nation Address and the former FUNanghalian segment KaraoKids—of which KidSONA can be considered a sequel—as well as the American children's media franchise Kidsongs and the Japanese children's playpark brand Kidzooona. This segment is a part of the parlor game segment FUNanghalian.
It consists of two rounds, the first round where the teams to score two points each are declared winners (later reduced to one with the first team to reach two points proceeding to the jackpot round). Beginning May 8, 2025, a jackpot round is included immediately after, in which three selected kids recite their designated songs before the players make their final guesses.
The twist is that the Showtime Kids, dressed in formal attire, recite their song lyrics while standing behind a podium styled after the presidential address.
Step... in the Name of Love was a dating game segment aired from April 7 to July 19, 2025, replacing Ansabe.[94] It was replaced with MASAsagot Mo Ba?.
The segment was supposed to air on March 3, 2025, set to replace Showtime Sexy Babe 2025. Auditions for this segment began on February 26, and opened to aspiring contestants aged 18 and above who are single. Applicants must bring a companion and share their story about why they remain single to this day. This segment is the successor to the reality dating game show Expecially for You. This segment was initially shelved for unknown reasons and was replaced by the revival of Sine Mo 'To.
In Step... in the Name of Love, a contestant seeks to find a new date with the assistance of a companion. Each pair consists of a "matchmaker," who is the contestant aiming to find a new match, and their "Hype Bestie," a companion or best friend who guides them throughout the process. Three potential matches, usually of the opposite gender, are then introduced. After each round, the potential matches may either "step up" within four steps (the higher the step, the greater the interest) or "step down," indicating disinterest or a mismatch in criteria. If a potential match steps down to the "X" line, they are deemed a "mismatch" and are automatically disqualified from being matched with the contestant. If one of the matches steps on the highest line in the final step, he or she is automatically considered the matchmaker's match; however, if two or all three matches are on the same level of line after all rounds, the matchmaker must name his or her match.
Hide and Sing
Hide and Sing was a mystery game show in which a celebrity guest plays detective, attempting to determine which of three completely covered-up singers is the true celebrity singer. This segment debuted in October 2020 until May 2021. It returned on January 20, 2025, and ended on March 8, 2025.[43]
The game is played in two rounds: the first round, called "KanTaguan," where all the singers perform a single song together, and the second round, named "Tagong Kampeon," where each singer performs their individual song.

And the Breadwinner Is...
And the Breadwinner Is... was a game show that is similar to the segment TrabaHula and is named after the family comedy-drama film of the same name by Vice Ganda that also served as a promotion for the film, debuted on November 25, 2024, replacing Kalokalike: Face 4, and ended in January 2025.[105][106]
Kalokalike: Face 4
Season four of the impersonation talent show Kalokalike, dubbed as "Kalokalike: Face 4", premiered on September 2, 2024, and ran until November 23, 2024. This marked the return of the segment almost ten years since its last season in 2013. At the end of the season, Vyan Dela Cruz, who impersonated singer KZ Tandingan, was crowned the fourth "Ultimate Kalokalike", besting 15 other grand finalists.[107][108]
Kalokalike had already aired three seasons since its debut in 2013. The competition had three winners: Jonathan Garcia as actor Christopher de Leon, Jennifer Catayong (a.k.a. Nicki Morena) as rapper Nicki Minaj, and Daniel Aliermo (a.k.a. Daniela Diva) as It's Showtime host and comedian Vice Ganda.[109]
Throwbox
Throwbox was a game show that premiered on September 7, 2024. In "Throwbox," players have the opportunity to "go back in time" by answering trivia questions about different decades, ranging from the 1970s to the 2010s. The game consists of two parts: an elimination round and the main gameplay.[42]
In the elimination round, a group of ten players each selects one of ten colored boxes. The objective is to pick the correct box containing a star and confetti (later replaced by a picture of a specific It's Showtime host). The player who selects this box advances to the main round and instantly receives ₱10,000, while those who do not select the correct box receive ₱1,000 for participation.
Before the main game begins, the advancing player must set aside half of their ₱10,000 as savings and risk the other half as the initial stake. The hosts then introduce ten boxes, each featuring a question related to a specific year and a corresponding cash amount. For example, a box marked "1989" may be worth ₱15,000. The player is required to choose five out of the ten boxes. Each box contains a question with three multiple-choice answers. If the player answers correctly, the cash value of the box is added to their bank; if incorrect, the same amount is deducted.
After playing and answering questions from five boxes, the contestant has a chance to either double, triple, halve, or even lose their banked money in the "Super Box" round, which features a different question and year category. Before this round begins, the contestant must choose between two options: "Doble o Kalahati" (Double or Half) or "Triple o Sawi" (Triple or Nothing). In "Doble o Kalahati", a correct answer doubles the contestant's bank, while an incorrect answer reduces it by half. In "Triple o Sawi" a correct answer triples the bank, but an incorrect answer results in losing all the money. The "Super Box" question contains four multiple-choice answers.
Expecially for You
Expecially for You (stylized as "eXpecially for you" and "EXpecially for You") was a realitydating segment that premiered on December 4, 2023, and ended on September 21, 2024, replacing the dance competition segment It's Showdown. The segment's name is a pun on Kylie Minogue and Jason Donovan's song Especially for You, as well as the word "ex," which refers to a previous relationship.[110][111][39][112] In rare instances, if a searcher's ex isn't on the show, they may be joined by a close friend or relative. This segment was open to people of all genders aged 18 and up. Auditions were open to: any couple can audition for the show, but they must have broken up and be on good terms; and to audition as a searchee, any civilian who is single and "ready to mingle" regardless of gender can do so. The segment was replaced by Kalokalike: Face 4.
It's Showdown was a dance competition that premiered from October 30 to December 2, 2023, replacing Mini Miss U. The competition features the so-called "Classic Showtime" format: dance groups from around the Philippines battle and show off their dance skills in the "Showdance Arena" vying to become the segment's grand champion. It is open to all dance groups: all boys, all girls, all LGBTQ+, or mixed, and all ages 16 and up.[40] At the end of the competition, Fresno Style PH was crowned the grand champion, with United Alliance in second place, and AMK Rock Nation coming in third place.[113] The segment was replaced by Expecially for You.

Showtime debuted on its pre-noontime slot on October 24, 2009, with a 14.0% national TV rating based on Kantar Media Philippines, and then moved on the noontime slot from October 2010 to February 2011.[159] Its immense popularity ended the dominance of talk show SiS on its timeslot.[160] GMA Network replaced SiS with Diz Iz It!, a competition similar to Showtime, but it was cancelled after five months.
Showtime's first grand finals held in July 2010 received a 35% national TV rating, beating the 8.9% rating of Diz Iz It! and 13.7% of Eat Bulaga![161] The second grand finals held in December 2010 scored a 23.4% national TV rating against Eat Bulaga!'s 17.4%.[162] The third grand finals in May 2011 also delivered a rating of 21.3% versus Eat Bulaga!'s 17%.
Showtime again moved to the noontime slot for the second and current time on February 6, 2012, after one year and the show's one week hiatus (now using its current name It's Showtime), with a 13.6% national rating.[163] The episode received an overall 16.3% rating when the viewership numbers from Studio 23 were added. Initially placing behind Eat Bulaga!, the show's rating peaked to a 20.9% national rating during the finals of the "Bida Kapamilya" segment and its third anniversary week-long celebration.[164][165]
The finals of the Kalokalike segment in June 2013 garnered a 26.8% national TV rating, leaving Eat Bulaga! and Wowowillie with 13.2% and 2.8% ratings, respectively.[166] The finals of the segment's second iteration posted a 21.6% national TV rating, once again beating Eat Bulaga!'s 15.8% and Wowowillie's 2.6%.[167]
It's Showtime continued its dominance in the noontime slot with its fourth anniversary week special held from October 21–26, 2013.[168][169]
The program faced heavy competition in 2015 when the sixth anniversary special only scored a 10.2% national TV rating, four times behind Eat Bulaga's 40.1%. This is due to the Tamang Panahon special (and the build-up before that), which served as the climax of the then-popular Kalyeserye segment which featured AlDub.[170][171][172]
It's Showtime quickly regained its prominence on its time slot when Tawag ng Tanghalan launched in 2016. The program garnered a 33.6% national TV rating during the singing competition's first grand finals, over Eat Bulaga's 11.7%.[173]Tawag ng Tanghalan continued its winning streak during its second-season finale when it posted a national TV rating of 31% against Eat Bulaga's 9.5%.[174]It's Showtime topped the ratings game once again during the first grand finals of Miss Q and A segment on June 30, 2018, with a national TV rating of 28.4% versus Eat Bulaga's 11.1%.[175]
The second Miss Q and A grand finals posted a national TV rating of 27.4%, beating Eat Bulaga's 10.6%, Asawa Ko, Karibal Ko's 13.8%, and Tadhana's 11.3%.[176]
Tawag ng Tanghalan third-season finale posted a national TV rating of 25.8%, beating Eat Bulaga's 10.4% and Hanggang Sa Dulo Ng Buhay Ko's 9.5%.[177]
On January 27, 2024, Tawag ng Tanghalan seventh-season finale posted a national TV rating of 4.8% beating Eat Bulaga's 4.5% and Tahanang Pinakamasaya's 2.7%
On February 7, 2024, It's Showtime achieved a historic victory since the ABS-CBN shutdown with a rating of 4.4% once again beating Eat Bulaga's 3.9% and Tahanang Pinakamasaya's 3.1%.[178]
On March 1 and 2, 2024, It's Showtime once again made victories in the ratings with 4.6% and 5.1% respectively. Thus, beating both Eat Bulaga's 4.1% and 4.7% and the finale of Tahanang Pinakamasaya's 2.9% and 2.8%.
On their GMA Network debut last April 6, It's Showtime achieved 524,294 peak concurrent views online and historic rating victory since the ABS-CBN shutdown with an all-time high rating of 9.7% beating Eat Bulaga's 4.4%.[179]

Controversies
A series of statements by guest judge Rosanna Roces against certain groups during an episode in January 2010 attracted controversy for perceived insensitivity towards teachers. ABS-CBN relieved Roces of her jury duty as a form of self-regulation, but Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB) placed the program under a 20-day preventive suspension on January 11, 2010. A placeholder variety show titled Magpasikat was aired in lieu of Showtime; Magpasikat had essentially the same talent show format as Showtime except that the competing groups are composed of celebrities.[182][183] The suspension only lasted for six days after the Court of Appeals issued a 60-day temporary restraining order against the MTRCB's suspension. Showtime eventually returned on air on January 19, 2010.[184][185][186][187][188] In March 2010, MTRCB ordered a total one-month suspension of the program because of the incident, including the replacement program Magpasikat. The MTRCB also directed the filing of criminal charges against Florida Tan, ABS-CBN vice-president for programming, and other officers "responsible for the violation."[189]Bong Osorio, head of ABS-CBN's Corporate Communications said that the suspension was not yet final and that they were seeking appeal before the Office of the President.[190] The variety show later on won the case because the MTRCB had not presented new arguments that would justify a reversal of its previous resolution.[191][192]
The program's dating game segment Nasaan Ka, Mr. Pastillas? drew ire from netizens and women's group Gabriela for "pimping" Angelica Yap, popularly known as Pastillas Girl. The program responded to Gabriela's statement, saying that it is "hurtful and offensive to women like Angelica who has done nothing wrong but to share her story with the hope of getting another shot at love."[193] It also clarified the segment's intent of helping Yap find love and recover from a failed relationship. MTRCB summoned the show's executives to give a list of suggestions on how to improve the segment.[194]
On September 4, 2023, the MTRCB suspended the noontime show over an alleged obscene act by Vice Ganda and Ion Perez in a July 25 episode of the "Isip Bata" segment.[195][196] However, the show continues to air as their network filed a motion for reconsideration.[197] Atty. Juan Ponce Enrile, Chief Presidential Legal Counsel, criticized what he perceived as an immoral action on part of Vice and Ion.[198] On September 28, the MTRCB denied the motion for reconsideration filed by ABS-CBN and GMA Network, allowing the networks to appeal to the Office of the President within 15 days.[199] On October 6, both GMA and ABS-CBN decided not to appeal to the Office of the President, leaving the program suspended from October 14 to 27.[200] Another variety show, It's Your Lucky Day temporarily took It's Showtime's timeslot during the suspension period.[201]
Teacher Tony Dizon issued an apology after mistakenly stating that Gloria Macapagal Arroyo was the first female president of the Philippines instead of Corazon Aquino on the show's trivia segment Throwbox on September 19, 2024. Acknowledging the backlash and accusations of boastfulness after sharing his academic achievements, Dizon expressed surprise at the mistake, noting the pressure of performing live. In a Facebook video, he emphasized the importance of learning from mistakes and urged the public to understand the challenges of being in the spotlight. Dizon concluded by stating that while criticism is inevitable, how one responds defines their character. The segment later went on hiatus and eventually never returned in future episodes.[202][203]
On the February 28, 2025 episode of the beauty pageant competition Showtime Sexy Babe 2025, contestant Heart Aquino admitted having limited knowledge about the Commission on Elections (COMELEC) when asked for her message to the poll body, prompting concern from host Vice Ganda. At 20 years old, Aquino also revealed she has not yet voted, drawing public attention. In response, COMELEC Chairperson George Garcia announced that Aquino was invited to the COMELEC office in Manila for voter education. He emphasized that "many young Filipinos may also lack awareness of the poll body's role, and stated that it is COMELEC's duty to address this gap." Garcia expressed hope that educating Aquino could inspire others to become more informed voters. As a response to the incident, It's Showtime re-introduced its quiz segment called "Quiz V" on March 3, 2025, aiming to promote general knowledge and awareness among its audience.[204][205][206]
Isip Bata: The Album is a compilation album of eleven music tracks featuring the members of the kiddie group "Batang Cute-Po" (then called Showtime Kids) of the show's children's segment "Isip Bata", consisting of Argus Aspiras, Imogen Cantong, Princess Kathryn "Kulot" Caponpon, Jaze Capili, and Lucas Landicho was released on November 3, 2023.[209][210][211] The first five singles off the album (Totoy Bibbo, Clap Clap Clap, Dalandan Shake, Pamela, and Learn the 1, 2, 3) were first released on October 13, 2023.
