Due to the controversial statements of its former judge Rosanna "Osang" Roces against teachers, the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB) has ordered a 20-day preventive suspension of ABS-CBN’s talent variety program "Showtime".
In the spirit of self-regulation, ABS-CBN removed Osang as a judge after she called teachers as merely "repeaters" in the January 7 live show (watch video below). But despite this, MTRCB still imposed a 20-day preventive suspension for the program.

A preventive suspension is issued to stop further violations, if there were any committed, or for the interest or welfare of the public. Thus, the network questions the need for said preventive suspension when Osang has already been removed from the program. The network is also reportedly filing an appeal to the courts to lift the suspension.
Showtime is a highly entertaining show watched by many Filipinos. It helps promote and showcase the creativity and talent of Kapamilyas nationwide, uplifts their spirit and provides opportunities to improve their lives.
Meanwhile, Showtime will be temporarily replaced by a new show titled "Magpasikat" where local celebrities will showcase their talents.
