As the country’s longest-running comedy program celebrates its 20th anniversary this year, GMA Network Inc. teams up with Summit Books to treat its loyal fans to an inside look at the iconic show whose mission has always been clear: to make the Filipino laugh.
I Am Bubble Gang: The Bubble Gang 20th Anniversary Commemorative Comedy Chronicles details the show’s bold beginnings and subsequent evolution, the many cast members and guest stars that have graced its set, the creators and writers who work their magic behind the scenes, and the most memorable moments that have tickled audiences throughout the show’s run.
Pictures of pioneering cast members Michael V., Ogie Alcasid, and company through the years and quotes from insiders who know the show best fill the pages of I Am Bubble Gang, making it a definite must-have for every person who grew up cracking up to the cast’s crazy antics week after week.
In his foreword, GMA Network chairman and CEO Felipe L. Gozon sums up Bubble Gang’s success as both a comedy show and a cultural force: “Comedy is serious business and it takes a lot of hard work, sheer determination, and an uncanny understanding of the Filipino's funny bone for a performer, much less an entire program, to stand the test of time. And two decades of sketches, gags, skits, and some of the funniest characters ever seen on TV make Bubble Gang a force to reckon with in the fickle world of comedy."
As part of the show’s anniversary celebration, Summit Books and GMA Network Inc. also earlier released The Bubble Bible by Bitoy, a collection of Michael V.’s 12 most famous characters on Bubble Gang.
I Am Bubble Gang is now available in bookstores and newsstands nationwide for P450. The Bubble Bible by Bitoy is also now available for P250.
