Arcane is based on the popular multiplayer online battle arena game League of Legends, was developed and released by Riot Games in 2009.
The Arcane season 1 was constructed by co-creators Christian Linke and Alex Yee and was produced by the French animation studio Fortiche in partnership with Riot Games. Both Fortiche Studios and Riot Games will remain as the producer of the series. Voice Actors of season 1 will be returning; Hailee Steinfeld as Vi, Ella Purnell as Jinx, Katie Leung as Caitlyn, and probably a rest of the voice-cast.
Lead by Paolo Contis and Isko Moreno, the show’s Jan 6 episode started by acknowledging the court decision and that the production company (TAPE inc.) and network (GMA) would follow court’s ruling even though TAPE plans to file an appeal.
TVJ on the other hand, started their show by singing the “Eat Bulaga” theme song while wearing red t-shirt with the show’s name on,
TVJ, meanwhile, celebrated their victory by singing the “Eat Bulaga” theme song while wearing t-shirts that bore the show’s name on today’s episode of their noontime show on TV5.
“Eto ang totoo. Eto ang tinadhana. Eto ang tunay na ‘Eat Bulaga,'” said Vic Sotto before they officially start the show.
TAPE changing the name of their noontime show to “Tahanang Pinakamasaya” will give everyone in the company including the show’s hosts a fresh start and at the same time removing the elephant in the room of using the Eat Bulaga name.
In a video posted on different social media platform, Tito Sotto, Vic Sotto, and Joey de Leon announced that the trio won the legal battle against the Television and Production Exponents (TAPE) Inc. over the trademark ownership of the “Eat Bulaga” name.
Tito Sotto, who is reading the dispositive portion of the ruling, explained that Marikina City Regional Trial Court (RTC) Branch 273 has ruled in favor of the trio regarding the copyright infringement and unfair competition case they had filed against the company back in June last year.
Here’s text of what Tito Sotto read from the ruling;
Wherefore, judgment is hereby rendered in favor of the plaintiffs (TVJ) against the defendants (TAPE and GMA Network)
Permanently enjoining defendants Television and Production Exponents (TAPE) Inc. and GMA Network Inc. from;
1 – Using the trademarks “EB” and “Eat bulaga”, including all the logos associated with the subject parts in its shows, programs, projects or promotions.
2 – Using the EAT BULAGA jingles/ song or any part thereof in its shows, programs, projects or promotions.
3 – Airing and broadcasting a playback of any and all recorded episodes of the EAT BULAGA show prior to 31st May 2023, its segment or any portion thereof in all channels and platforms.
Here the full video of TVJ’s announcement;
The ruling comes after the Intellectual Property Office of the Philippines (IPOPHL) cancels that trademarks registration of TAPE Inc. for ‘Eat Bulaga’ and ‘EB’.
In an article published on GMA News website, TAPE counsel Atty. Maggie Garduque commented on ruling;
“Yes, I already saw the decision dated Dec 22, 2023 but released by the court this January.”
“Initial reaction, among others, we were surprised that the court ruled on trademark and trademark infringement when the case pending in court is copyright infringement. We will definitely file an appeal to this decision,” Garduque said.
“There is nothing in the decision which states that since there is injunction issued to tape, TVJ can now use the trademark EB and Eat Bulaga especially that the trademark ownership is still under appeal before the IPO,” he added.

Sony just release another trailer of the Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse and this one is a doozy.
If in the first trailer, we do not know why all those “Spider-People”, including Spider-Man 2099, are attacking Mile Morales and Gwen Stacy, and now we got the answer or at least the idea on why they’re after Miles Morales.
As explained by Miguel O’Hara a.k.a. Spider-Man 2099, Morales can never be a full-fledged Spider-man because he never experience the tragedy of choosing to save the “one person he loves versus saving the entire universe,” which everyone of the Spider-People have experienced. This is where things got interesting, since Miles Morales refuse to accept this fate as a Spider-man, this is what prompted the rest of the Spider-People to go after him.
It is still unclear who the main villain of the film and the main plot line but whatever it is, it looks like Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is going to be a great film.
Miles Morales returns for the next chapter of the Oscar®-winning Spider-Verse saga, Spider-Man™: Across the Spider-Verse. After reuniting with Gwen Stacy, Brooklyn’s full-time, friendly neighborhood Spider-Man is catapulted across the Multiverse, where he encounters a team of Spider-People charged with protecting its very existence. But when the heroes clash on how to handle a new threat, Miles finds himself pitted against the other Spiders and must redefine what it means to be a hero so he can save the people he loves most.
Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is directed by Joaquim Dos Santos, Kemp Powers and Justin K. Thompson. Screenplay by Phil Lord & Christopher Miller and David Callaham. Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse will be in theaters June 2, 2023.
