Tito Sotto, Vic Sotto, and Joey De Leon, who are 74, 69, and 76 years old respectively, are not slowing down as they will lead the relaunching of ‘Eat Bulaga’ on July 1, to be aired on their new home network TV5.
The move to TV5 happened after the “Legit Dabarkads” had a conflict with TAPE Inc., which produced their show on GMA. Amid the controversy, some critics have told Tito, Vic, and Joey to retire already due to their advanced age.
