Host Willie Revillame is now living his dream with his variety show “Wowowin” airing everyday on GMA primetime for more than two weeks already.
The program is giving constant joy to its viewers but what most of the people don’t know is the fact that Willie once felt helpless and almost gave up in making the show happen.

On Willie’s renewal of contract with GMA Network last January 2016, he didn’t deny that he had a hard time shouldering all the expenses for the show back when it used to air every Sunday afternoon on GMA, admitting that he has no marketing arm.
“Nagpaalam na ako sa kanila eh, baka last Sunday na ako kasi I’m spending so much. Malaki na ‘yung nagagastos, medyo wala akong income, so medyo mabigat. One afternoon tumawag sa akin si Boss Joey Abacan. Sabi niya, ‘Hindi mo kami pwedeng iwan. Nag-usap na kami ni FLG, ni Mr. Duavit, gusto naming mag-stay ka dito. We will help you.'”
Moreover, Willie expressed gratitude to the Kapuso Network for believing in him,
“Mas okay sa akin ‘to. Iba na, mas gaganahan ka na talaga kasi hindi ko na masyado iniisip ‘yung bigat ng gastos. Sales and marketing nito sa GMA na, hindi na kami, hindi na ako. Sila na ‘yan.”
