I watched the premiere of “Manny Many Prizes” aired on GMA7 a while ago. It was hosted by none other than the pound-for-pound king Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao together with Paolo Contis, Gladys Guevarra, Onyok Velasco, Rhiann Ramos and Isabelle Daza.

This is another show that offers big monetary opportunities to the Filipino people. As I watched the show, it seemed that it is aired just to provide money to our less fortunate brothers and sisters. And Manny Pacquiao is the perfect person to distribute lots of cash to their studio audiences.

The premiere show was held live at the AFP Theatre in Quezon City. I guess that there are more or less a thousand audiences at the venue. And all of the audiences will go home as winners. All of them will receive prizes as well.

The games are so simple. It started with the balloons which has corresponding cash prize. Then there was also Manny's pick which depended on the ticket numbers. The chosen number will be given 25,000. The videoke-sort of contest was also fun. There was a competition of a barangayan team wherein a member of the winning team was give a franchise of a food cart business.

What struck me most was the selection of 5 audiences who will have the chance to win a house and lot. All they had to do was to dance for their life. The selected five winners will go through a question-and-answer portion. Whoever loses will receive 30,000 consolation prize. I was really amazed with the prize. Their consolation prize is equivalent to the jackpot prizes of other game shows. The remaining contestant wasn't able to win, however, Pacman decided to give him the house and lot prize. The elderly man contestant lives in Payatas. He is so deserving to have a new residence.

All in all, the show is entertaining. Though, it is obvious that Manny is so conscious in hosting. Well, we can't blame him. This is is first game show and it is aired live.

The show provides light to the dim situation of the Filipino people. It provides a huge glimpse of hope to those who lost faith in themselves and in humanity. This is a show not only for entertainment nor for money, but for giving fulfillment to other people.

Kudos to GMA7, to Manny and his co-hosts for the job well done!
