THE original “Eat Bulaga” trio of former senate president Vicente “Tito” Sotto 3rd, Vic Sotto, and Joey De Leon have moved networks.

An announcement by Mediaquest Holdings Inc. on Wednesday, June 7 confirmed the move of the trio from GMA to TV5 and the group’s other platforms.

“The Mediaquest Group has entered into an agreement with Tito, Vic, and Joey and the Dabarkads to produce content for TV5 and other Mediaquest platforms,” the announcement read.

The trio left the noontime variety show Eat Bulaga last week, after 44 years due to a dispute with producers TAPE Inc. On Monday, June 5, the noontime show presented new hosts led by Paolo Contis. n
