Ryan Agoncillo mulls transfer from TV5 to GMA

Is actor and television host Ryan Agoncillo transferring from TV5 to GMA?
From the looks of it, there is indication that the husband of Judy Ann Santos may yet indeed move to the network where his wife is also being rumored to be transferring.
Ryan made the hint as TV5 decided to end its top-rated talent search, “Talentadong Pinoy,” which the actor hosts.
Ryan controlled his emotion when asked how he feels about the end of his five-year-old show in which TV5 also made a mark.
Ironically, TV5’s InterAksyon, through Edwin P. Sallan, reported on the possible departure of its talent on its website.

Ryan made the statement during a press conference that introduced the show’s seven Hall of Famers who will compete for the title of Ultimate Talentado on August 18, at the Cuneta Astrodome.
In a rare display of emotion that saw him momentarily pause while trying to fight off tears, the usually cheerful and mild-mannered Ryan could no longer hide his disappointment over the Kapatid network’s decision to cancel the show that has lorded over its weekend primetime slots, reported Wedwin Sallan.
Ryan recalled the beginnings of “Talentadong Pinoy” when it struggled in the ratings in its first eight months before finally gaining momentum with audiences. He described the show’s finale dubbed as “Talentadong Pinoy Worldwide Battle Royale” as “the end of an era” and a “bittersweet moment” for him and the show’s staff.
“My contract with TV5 actually expired this January, but I decided to stay on as a freelancer because I loved the show and me and the staff want to do the best shows we can every week,” the multi-awarded TV host and part-time actor revealed.
Ryan has been rumored to be transferring to GMA Network where he is already part of its long-running noontime show, “Eat Bulaga” since 2009.
But Ryan made it clear that he has nott decided on his future and has not met anyone regarding what he intends to do next adding that he was leaving such matters to his manager, Noel Ferrer.
“By Monday the day after our finale, I might be in a better position to answer your questions about my future. But for now, my concern as a professional is to make sure our team presents a very good show this coming Sunday,” he assured in the press conference.
TV5 head of creative and entertainment production Perci Intalan, who was also in the press conference, told reporters that while “Talentadong Pinoy” is “bowing out for now”, there is always a chance for TV5 to bring the show back.
Perci also announced that shows like “Wow Mali!” and “Who Wants To Be A Millionaire” will return on the air soon.
Ryan, however, was non-commital when asked if he will also return as host of the show should TV5 decide to bring it back in the future, insisting that he will only start thinking of his future after the show’s finale.
Focusing on his show’s finale Battle Royale, Ryan promised to end the five-year run of “Talentadong Pinoy” with a big bang as it features seven talented Hall of Famers starting with magician slash illusionist Laserman from Malabon, Chinese yo-yo master Spyro Marco from Nueva Ecija, the hip-hop dance squad Nocturnal Dance Company from Quezon City and the contortionist group, Larvae from Davao.
Rounding up the Hall of Famers are talented singers Sor Apao from Iligan City, Rina Forbes from Makati and Haina from as far back as Qatar in the Middle East.
Aside from these amazing talented acts, the Battle Royale Finale will also be graced by celebrity Talent Scouts Judy Ann Santos, John Lapus, Direk Joey Reyes, Joey de Leon and Kapatid stars Edu Manzano, Aga Muhlach, Derek Ramsay, and the one and only Megastar Ms. Sharon Cuneta.
Edwin Sallan also reported that Ryan is saving his best for last as he intends to keep the promise he made during his surprise birthday celebration on the show last April. Yes, he will perform a very special number with the Manoeuveres, the top-notch all male dance group of which he was once a member.
