Cristy Per Minute on ABS-CBN

[edit]

Cristy Fermin was one of the hosts of the top-rating Sunday talk show Showbiz Lingo (later reformatted as Showbiz Lingo Plus). When ABS-CBN executives saw her expertise in exploiting the latest showbiz news, they decided to put up a daily afternoon show that the masses would also look forward to aside from Showbiz Lingo. Cristy Per Minute was conceptualized by ABS-CBN and aired its first episode on January 30, 1995. In here, Cristy interviewed famous showbiz personalities about various issues, dished out her own opinions and even letting the viewers have their own view about the intrigues and headlines.[1] Every Friday, the show also had its Grand Fans Day to honor and recognize celebrities who gained popularity and at the peak of their careers.

The show was co-hosted by Ogie Diaz and John Lapus, who were working with Fermin in the top-rated Sunday talk show Showbiz Lingo. Their job on the show is to guide the viewers about the latest topics through voting and texting, wherein they have to answer a poll question and through their own segments. The question is about the celebrity that guested on the show.[2] Along with Diaz and Lapus, Gia Garchitorena was also joined in as co-host of the show, all 3 were hired by then-Supervising producer Deo Endrinal.[3]

Cristy Per Minute had a tremendous run for quite some time that it had broken the monotony of the afternoon programming that was traditionally reserved for afternoon drama programs. Due to their immense popularity at the 1:30 pm time slot, their rival program Eat Bulaga! created a 10-minute showbiz segment "Aminin!" as a pre-emptive move. But Cristy Per Minute would later on sustain their high ratings when their sister program 'Sang Linggo nAPO Sila came up with "'Wag Isnabin" as a response. On February 8, 1999, the show had to move on its new timeslot at 3:00 pm when ABS-CBN decided to produce afternoon dramas again on the noontime block starting with Marinella. On January 7, 2000, the show aired its final episode after an almost successful 5-year run on the network.[citation needed]

Elmer Reyes and Arniel Serato later joined the show, a few months after the program's pilot episode. Romel Chika is the present her co-host. The radio show dishes out the latest showbiz news that are happening in the country and in abroad.[4]
