Ogie Alcasid's TV5 Contract Expires, Will He Return to GMA or Transfer to ABS-CBN?

<br /> OPM Icon Ogie Alcasid is soon to be freed from TV5 as his contract expires in August 18.<br /> <br /> Since Alcasid's contract with the said network is non-exclusive, this allows him to guest to rival networks ABS-CBN and GMA Network. The singer appeared twice on ASAP this year and is part of MMK 25th Anniversary Commemorative album called "MMK Life Songs". Having this said, will he transfer to ABS-CBN as a certified Kapamilya?<br /> <br /> However, Ogie was seen yesterday in Eat Bulaga's "Lola's Playlist" as one of the judges. Though Eat Bulaga is managed by APT Entertainment, it is being aired on GMA Network, thus many will speculate that he'll be returning to his former mother network.<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Atyuxj5hpG0/V6_YVo-xG_I/AAAAAAAAHpo/ZbcNXYA-Xrcw3iz0wdSazRBxPREzUWg8QCK4B/s1600/Ogie%2BAlcasid%2BAyokong%2BTumanda.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Ogie Alcasid Ayokong Tumanda" border="0" height="640" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Atyuxj5hpG0/V6_YVo-xG_I/AAAAAAAAHpo/ZbcNXYA-Xrcw3iz0wdSazRBxPREzUWg8QCK4B/s640/Ogie%2BAlcasid%2BAyokong%2BTumanda.jpg" width="444" /></a></div> <br /> <br /> In a press conference for his upcoming birthday concert "Ayokong Tumanda" at the Music Museum this coming August 26 and 27, the singer said, <i>"The truth is my contract [with TV5] is expiring August 18. Thankful ako sa network ko at hindi nila ako nire-restrict. Let’s face it, wala naman kaming show ngayon. Wala kaming ibang content kung saan ako pwede lumabas so naiintindihan naman nila ‘yon." </i><br /> <br /> Alcasid added, <i>"I still have to talk to my manager kung saan ba pupunta? Ang focus ko ngayon tapusin muna ang concert tapos saka na lang mag-isip one-by-one, kasi nagpatong-patong. Anything is possible. Pero ang feeling ko sa three years being with TV5 we weren’t able to accomplish what we were supposed to accomplish. So kung iiwan ko lang ‘yun na ganoon there’s big part of me na sige baka kaya pa naman. However, kung hindi na kaya, kung wala na, then it’s time to move on. I don’t want to base my position on anything else but where am I needed most at this point".</i><br /> <i><br /></i> How about you? Will you prefer Alcasid to be a Kapamilya or just return to GMA and be a Kapuso once again?<br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
