The country’s longest-running and multi-awarded gag show, GMA Network’s Bubble Gang treats viewers with a two-part superhero telemovie special for its 24th anniversary entitled “The ScAvengers” airing on November 15 and 22.
Michael V., whose monumental contributions for Bubble Gang lead to the show’s unwavering success, playfully shared what loyal viewers and fresh audiences alike should look forward to in the anniversary special,”Medyo baliw at ambisyosong project ito. Sa totoo lang, laro lang ‘yung gusto namin and yet gusto namin ipakita na kahit kami naglalaro, ‘yung quality hindi mawawala. So this time around, it’s a visual treat na talagang sa teaser pa lang gugulatin namin kayo.”
“We have new audience every single day and episode. It’s like our duty and also our pleasure to create something for these new audiences, sa mga bagong sumusuporta at sumusubaybay. At the same time, we are maintaining ‘yung mga suki na namin,” he added.
The ScAvengers, which is a word play on Marvel Studio’s eponymous characters, the Avengers, revolves around an outcast group of homeless people who scavenge for a living and find extraordinary scraps which fell from the outer space. Little do they know that these garbage possess superpowers that will transform them from outcasts to their barangay’s greatest superheroes collectively called as The ScAvengers.
