Showbiz News Ngayon (SNN), ABS-CBN's daily primetime showbiz oriented talk-show, will have its last airing on September 9 as revealed by ABS-CBN executives Bong Osorio and Roxy Liquigan.
The show's hosts Boy Abunda and Bianca Gonzales will be seen on a two separate TV programs - Abunda to join the station's late night news program "Bandila" as one of the anchors, while, Gonzales will be returning as one of the hosts for weekend showbiz talk-show "Entertainment Live!".
The move, according to ABS-CBN insider, has nothing to do with the show's poor ratings but more of a programming move to solidify the primetime block of Kapamilya network and to put the news program in an earlier timeslot.
In an interview with Marie Lozano aired on Bandila last night, September 1, Abunda said, "Hindi naman po natin iniwan ang SNN, may traces pa rin ng SNN dito sa Bandila. Pinagbuklod lamang, pinalawak, pinalakas."
"At ito ay ginagawa natin dahil mas gusto nating ibahagi ang mas maraming balita sa ating mga manonood. It's exciting. Sabay-sabay tayo sa excitement." he added.
Meanwhile, ABS-CBN releases an official statement regarding the new lineup of Bandila through its Head of Corporate Communications group Mr. Bong Osorio:
