| It's Showtime It's Your Lucky Day | |
Magpasikat (lit. 'Show-Off') is the annual talent competition segment of the Philippine television variety show It's Showtime, where the hosts and other cast members compete against each other. A week-long anniversary special, it is usually held either a week before the show's anniversary date, October 24, or during the week itself (although the 2021 to 2023 editions were held in November).[1]
The duo Jugs Jugueta and Teddy Corpuz hold the most number of Magpasikat wins with six, followed by Karylle with five wins, and Jhong Hilario and Kim Chiu with four wins.[2]
Background
[edit]Magpasikat was first held on October 23, 2010, as an anniversary special. Since then, it has become a week-long annual tradition. However, the 2020 and 2021 editions were held in one day due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[3]
Magpasikat was also the name of a placeholder show that replaced Showtime in January 2010, when the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board suspended the latter due to an errant remark made by guest judge Rosanna Roces towards teachers. The show had the same format as Showtime, except for the competing groups being composed of celebrities, and only aired for a few days until the suspension was blocked following a temporary restraining order.[4][5]
Format
[edit]Except on certain occasions, the It's Showtime cast members and staff are usually divided into five teams by drawing lots. The same method is also used to decide the order of performances. The first team would perform on Monday, the second team on Tuesday, and so on until Friday, with the results being announced by the voice of Big Brother, panel of judges or the ABS-CBN COO for broadcast Cory Vidanes on Saturday. The performances are evaluated by a special panel of hurados (judges). The team with the highest average score will receive the highest cash prize for their chosen beneficiary. The second- to fifth-placing teams will also receive consolation prizes.[1][2]

| Team Anne-Tyang Amy with BidaMan (October 22, Tuesday) | Anne Curtis and Amy Perez's performance was an ode to It’s Showtime’s tumultuous success in the past decade, as it represents their journey as a blossoming variety show, the challenges and setbacks they went through, how they stood up and moved on together from their downfalls, and being stronger than ever as they mark the newest chapter of their lives personally and professionally together, just like a tree. It opened with Tyang Amy, who was wearing a glittery brown body suit depicting roots, amazingly showing off her acrobatic skills, including a difficult headstand, while the children’s choir were singing The Chainsmokers and Coldplay’s "Something Just Like This". Next, the BidaMan finalists danced to Queen’s "The Show Must Go On" half-naked. A few of them performed stunts when they stuck themselves onto the large metal scaffold while it was being flipped by the other BidaMan members. Curtis then astounded the audience as she seamlessly did death-defying wheel gymnastics alongside BidaMan grand winner Jin Macapagal and a professional Australian gymnast. Their performance ended with Anne sitting inside a spinning spherical framework while belting out “Forever Young”, with Tyang Amy and other team members hanging beneath it, as it was being lifted. | 3rd Place Average Score: 9.0 | Video | [52][49] |
| Team Karylle-Ryan with TNT singers (October 23, Wednesday) | Karylle and Ryan Bang, along with the Tawag ng Tanghalan singers, gave a futuristic musical presentation that incorporates a mix of various music genres, from theatrical and ballad to pop and rap. It commenced with a narration of Bang's “sob story”, from being “friend-zoned” by his celebrity crushes and being brokenhearted numerous times to his yearning to be with his dad again—via a short K-drama-inspired video. A short skit by Karylle and Bang ensued, wherein the former talked about their love-hate relationship as friends by belting out her original composition for him. The audience is then visually transported into a 2029 Korean adaptation of It's Showtime, where the Tawag ng Tanghalan alumni, joined by Korean dancer Dasuri Choi, perform hit K-pop songs including Blackpink's "Kill This Love" and "Ddu-Du Ddu-Du", and BTS' "Boy with Luv". Bang's shining moment came when he emerged to the stage dressed like a true K-pop idol and danced to BTS’ "Idol". He then delivered a speech in Korean and gave a Tagalog rap performance that narrated his unforgettable experiences in the Philippines. Team Karylle-Ryan's number concluded with the inspiring original composition "Pabuhat". | 4th Place Average Score: 8.8 | Video | [53][49] |
| Team Jhong-Jugs-Teddy with Jackie, Ion, and Sanrio (October 24, Thursday) | Jhong Hilario, Jugs Jugueta, and Teddy Corpuz's team took a trip down memory lane through their impressive and colorful throwback-themed production number. Their presentation paid tribute to the '80s era through the concept, costumes, props, and acts they incorporated into it and also brought back some of the fondest moments they shared on the noontime program. The performance started with a pre-recorded comedy skit that introduced a live performance on-stage titled “80’s Showtime”, wherein everything they uttered and sang sounded gibberish, reminiscent of their 2014 Magpasikat performance with Karylle. Hilario, along with Sanrio, Ion, and Jackie, were the performers of this Kaloka-like-inspired segment as they impersonated '80s icons Michael Jackson, Boy George, Randy Santiago, and Madonna, respectively. This was followed by a live continuation of the comedy skit with former It's Showtime cast members dressed as popular '80s figures: Kim Atienza (as "Indiana Jones"), Eric “Eruption” Tai (as Hulk Hogan), Billy Crawford (as Gabby Concepcion), and Coleen Garcia (as Sharon Cuneta). Then after, the reversed version of their bewildering opening number was then played on screen, showing that they actually were performing the hits of the aforementioned music icons. The group concluded their set by performing their rework on It’s Showtime’s theme song and a mash-up of some of the '80s hits with surprise appearances by actress Carmi Martin and Randy Santiago. | 5th Place Average Score: 8.0 | Video | [54][49] |
| Team Vhong-Mariel with Hashtags (October 25, Friday) | Vhong Navarro, Mariel Rodriguez-Padilla, and the Hashtags brought the audience to the future with an astonishing and heart-fluttering production number. It showcased truly remarkable futuristic exhibitions that signified how technology had tremendously improved 30 years from now and enabled them to provide a post-modern way to spread happiness through “mandroids”, or humanoid robots. Rodriguez-Padilla played the leader of these "mandroids", who then introduced Mandroid VN-01, played by Navarro. A memorable part of the production number was when VN-01 "transformed" into a human who tried to entertain his It’s Showtime family, who were imagined to be in their senior years at that time. This was followed by a series of dance performances by Navarro, the Hashtags, Dawn Chang, and Pilipinas Got Talent Season 5 champion Power Duo. A pre-recorded video of an "elderly" Vhong was flashed on screen, delivering a poignant message to his It’s Showtime family as a life-size projected image of each cast member of the program appeared. The showcase ended when their older counterparts and the other members of the ensemble enclosed Navarro in a huge group hug that formed a heart. | 2nd Place Average Score: 9.4 | Video | [55][49] |

The theme of self-love further took center stage as Vice spun in the air and belted out Lady Gaga’s "Hair". The performance showcased his inspirational "hair story", which aimed to share his foremost advocacy of supporting people who have alopecia areata and of imparting self-love towards everyone who has the said condition or is struggling to embrace their true selves.

| Team Karylle-Jhong-Ion | Karylle, Jhong Hilario, and Ion Perez's production number showed how strong and resourceful Filipinos are when faced with challenges and problems in life. It showed how livelihoods were affected because of the pandemic, while still exhibiting the undying resilience of Filipinos. With the help of child stars Aaron “Yorme” Sunga and Scarlet Snow Belo in an introductory online class skit, their team gave a glimpse of the colorful culture as they depicted the lives of ordinary Filipinos: Mang Jhong, a cheerful jeepney driver; Aling Karylle, a talented balut vendor; and Mang Ion, a romantic ice cream vendor. In a festive production number, Mang Jhong and Mang Ion danced to "Beep, Beep" and "Mamang Sorbetero", respectively, while Aling Karylle sang "Balut, Penoy". They also incorporated Filipino folk dances like cariñosa, maglalatik, and tinikling into their number. The mood then shifted to gloom as a montage of pandemic-related news flashed on the screens. The characters lamented on how the current situation has terribly affected them, but at the same time, they exhibited the undying resilience of us Filipinos, who are not only able to find something to still be happy about during these trying times, but are also able to find other ways to provide for their families. During the soliloquies, Alex Calleja, Vice Ganda, and Mahal had voice cameos as the jeepney, the ice cream cart, and a hatched duckling, respectively. KaladKaren then made a special appearance as the host of the fictional program "May Paraan", presenting how the three characters stood up from being toppled down by the pandemic and used their skills and resources in order to move forward in life. The presentation ended with an inspiring performance of the original composition "Aahon". Zsa Zsa Padilla also made a surprise appearance in a closing skit as the teacher of Scarlet and Yorme. | Grand Champion (tie) | Video | [62][63] |
| Team Jugs-Teddy-Ryan | Jugs Jugueta, Teddy Corpuz, and Ryan Bang imparted a very moving message that even though this pandemic has caused live performances to temporarily halt, music will never stop. They gave an epic concert treat as they mounted a "Battle of the Bands"-themed number dubbed "Project 11: Tuloy Ang Tugtugan". However, instead of having their respective bands on the show, the trio had themselves as bandmates by projecting pre-recorded videos of them in various appearances as they took on the different positions in a band. Anne Curtis made a special appearance as the emcee in a series of pre-recorded videos, introducing each band. The first to perform was "School of Jugs", who performed The Itchyworms’ "Gusto Ko Lamang Sa Buhay", followed by "Teddy University", who played Rocksteddy’s "Superhero" and the "Ryan Band" who amused with the song "Abang-abang". They then rocked the stage as they moved on to the epic band showdown, wherein the three of them sang an uplifting yet headbanging original composition along with pre-recorded appearances from Curtis and various music artists: Apl.de.ap of Black Eyed Peas, Andrea Manzano of This Band, I Belong to the Zoo, Zel Bautista of December Avenue, Jeff Bolivar of Soapdish, Kitchie Nadal, Ebe Dancel, and Raymund Marasigan. In the middle of the performance, Bang also played the flute. | Grand Champion (tie) | Video | [64] |
| Team Vhong-Amy-Jackie | Vhong Navarro, Amy Perez, and Jackie Gonzaga pay tribute to Filipino teachers who were passionate about their craft and didn't give up despite the challenging times. The performance commenced with the trio continuously walking along a consistently changing backdrop while wearing personal protective equipment. They then introduced themselves one-by-one as the three inspiring teachers who showed admirable passion not just in their profession but towards their students as well. First was Vhong, who depicted Teacher Velcher Castillo, a high school teacher from Isabela who's known for giving away crayons to his students after receiving a heartbreaking note from one of them. Next was Jackie, who portrayed Teacher Iam, the dedicated pre-school teacher who's doing her best to conquer the challenges of this pandemic. And lastly, Tyang Amy, who pierced our hearts as Teacher Lovely, the teacher who does not only have to face the challenges of distance learning, but also provide for the needs of her ill child. After rending our hearts with those true-to-life stories, the three emerged on the stage wearing shirts with "Sti11 2gether A2Z" emblazoned on them and performed a dance number. Several teachers from different parts of the country joined them virtually as pre-recorded videos of them dancing were shown | Grand Champion (tie) | Video | [65][66] |
| Team Vice-Kim | Vice Ganda and Kim Chiu relayed a very relevant message to everyone about grieving and depression. Vice Ganda performed various songs while Kim did an interpretive dance. As Vice and his alter-ego Viceral pierced our souls with their rendition of Linkin Park’s "In the End" and Madonna’s "Frozen", Kim, who was wearing an embellished cream dress, was seen dancing with full emotions on a huge sandbox. Cladded in a glittery all-black ensemble with a studded mesh face cover and long train with the word "grief" emblazoned on it, the former surely was the representation of negative emotions. On the next gap, Kim was seen dancing in a seemingly confined space, while Vice was singing the slowed-down version of Kylie Minogue’s "Can't Get You Out of My Head". She then went on to throw red paint on the transparent film. As they went inside two separate boxes, a pre-taped video of them separately submerged in the water flashed on the screen, signifying their reawakening. The two stepped out of their box with a costume change to white ensembles, representing renewed hope. The performance ended with Vice belting out Lady Gaga’s "Million Reasons" as Kim and the other dancers finished their interpretative dance. | Grand Champion (tie) | Video | [67][68] |

Female athletes were seen doing their routines on the stage where the huge letter standees that spelled “G-I-N-T” and a huge metal ring adjacent to it were erected. Tyang Amy entered and danced while on the ring as the tune of Rivermaya’s "Liwanag Sa Dilim" blared, while Kim astounded us with her dance interpretation of SB19’s "Go Up" along with other dancers. Anne Curtis also provided guest voice-over before Kim took the stage. Karylle then emerged to the stage in an immaculate white gown with cape as she sang her self-composed song titled "Kababaihan", which aims to pay homage to women athletes and show their support to them and all Pinays. As her performance approaches its end, her gown literally glowed into different colors, which resembled fireworks. After girl group 4th Impact performed Sarah Geronimo’s "Tayo", Kim and Amy went back onstage to dance again, with Kim showcasing her skills in playing the drums, which also ended their performance. | Grand Champion Average Score: 9.42 | Video | [70][73][74] |
| Team Vhong-Ogie | Vhong Navarro and Ogie Alcasid impressed viewers with their Squid Game-inspired performance showcasing the importance of traditional Filipino games weaved into songs and dances. The performance commenced with a skit wherein they both played dual roles – Ogie as the mother and the son, while Vhong was the father and the other son. As they refused to listen to their parents’, their gadgets suddenly malfunctioned and their setup shook, and they were transported to a game field by a then-anonymous gamemaster, who told them, “kaka-computer n’yo ‘yan!” The gamemaster welcomed them to “SKID Games”, wherein they had to play a series of Pinoy street games and they were divided into two teams: Team Bibo headed by Vhong and Team Perfect by Ogie. Team Bibo was the first one to play, with Vhong and his Street Boys co-members playing piko projected on the floor as they danced to Gary Valenciano’s "Awit at Laro". Team Perfect, on the other hand, was assigned to play hide-and-seek, wherein he and his teammates Lara Maigue, Jeremy Glinoga, and Tawag ng Tanghalan alumni Reiven Umali and Sam Mangubat, as well as their surprise guest Regine Velasquez-Alcasid, sang a parody version of Moira Dela Torre’s "Tagu-taguan" as they moved around the makeshift walls. Both teams were then seen having fun playing “patintero” at the ABS-CBN rooftop, which was succeeded by the performance of El Gamma Penumbra as the gamemaster explained how playing games is parallel to life. Ebe Dancel surprisingly emerged onstage singing "Lipad" as Vhong and Ogie were seen floating mid-air while hanging on their respective kites. In the end, it was revealed that the game master was Jhong Hilario, who, along with the “parents” reminded everyone, particularly the younger generations, how important it is to keep these street games alive amid the continuous changing times. | 3rd Place (tie) | Video | [75][76] |
| Team Jugs-Teddy-Ion | Jugs Jugueta, Teddy Corpuz, and Ion Perez turned their performance into a Madlang Pi-Poll segment, letting the audience decide what they would do. They created a short action-comedy film and sought the help of the madlang people as their characters went on odd and ridiculous adventures. And they're able to successfully do it the interactive way, just like how it's done in said It’s Showtime segment. As they perplexedly searched for their stolen eggs and birds, gamemaster Joey Marquez, who they called "Tsong-Its", he dared them to take on various challenges by having to choose between two options with the help of the judges, hosts, and the virtual audiences. Their adventure started upon agreeing to pick and take the red ball. From wearing casual clothes in their opening skit, they channeled The Matrix as they were cladded in all-black ensembles and entered the stage while riding on a hoverboard, scooter, and motorcycle. They then had to submerge themselves in mud to regain the red egg and fight the wicked goons to get their green egg. The trio also had to sustain gunshots and overcome their fear of snake in order to take back their blue egg. After triumphantly retrieving their missing eggs, they performed the Parokya ni Edgar song "Don't Touch My Birdie" as online personalities Pamela Kaye and Glenn Krishnan, with It’s Showtime dancer Neri Lopera, emerged on the stage wearing angel wings and handed them one chicken each. | 3rd Place (tie) | Video | [77][78] |
| Team Vice-Ryan-Jackie | Vice Ganda, Ryan Bang, and Jackie Gonzaga reminded viewers to spend time with their loved ones and gave some of them who lost loved ones a chance to say goodbye. At the onset, Ryan and Jackie were seen arguing regarding their supposed rehearsal for their number. Vice Ganda stopped them and told them that they should exert their best in everything they do in order to also deliver a great performance to the viewers. Ryan and Jackie went on to groove to A-ha’s "Take On Me", with popular online personalities Pipay and Whamos taking turns with them as they go in and out of the makeshift wall with doors and windows they used as a backdrop. Vice then had entertained with his standup comedy opposite an XB Gensan member, and sang a duet version of "Take On Me" with Darren Espanto. Youtuber Ivana Alawi then made a surprise appearance as she played Vice's counterpart. The mood eventually shifted to solemn and gloom in the second part of their skit, wherein Jackie and Ryan were both able to showcase their dramatic chops, hinting that something bad happened to Vice. Jackie quickly went out of the studio and rushed to another to impress with an emotive interpretative dance to Fra Lippo Lippi’s "Beauty and Madness" that made use of special effects. Singer Kyla then emerged onstage singing Josh Groban’s "To Where You Are", while Ryan exhibited his skills in playing the piano. Vice Ganda, through a voice-over, revealed the theme of their performance, giving the audience time to grieve for lost loved ones amid the health crisis. This was followed by Vice Ganda’s soulful rendition of Charlie Puth and Wiz Khalifa’s "See You Again" along with Tatalon Choir on the rooftop of ABS-CBN. A montage of several people was also shown as they wrote their farewell messages to their dearly departed family members and relatives on white balloons, which they eventually released to the skies as they surrounded Vice while he was singing. | 2nd Place | Video | [79][80] |

They were in their silk sleepwear and were surrounded by plenty of glimmering lights, happily dancing and playing, when suddenly, a tornado came and took the little girl away. As she began looking for her, Anne was only able to retrieve the glowing star that she gave to her as a gift. In pursuit of finding her daughter, Anne went on a whimsical adventure. Her first stop was in Planet Neona guarded by Jackie, who mesmerized audinece with her breathtaking aerial silk dance while cladded in a multicolor neon body suit and flower crown that symbolizes a butterfly. However, Anne wasn’t able to find her child there. She then proceeded to Planeta Deserta, which was manned by Ion who performed acrobatic moves on a steel scaffolding while appearing fierce in his all-black ensemble. Still unable to find her child, Anne went on to travel the rest of the galaxy. She ran and did acrobatic routines mid-air while suspended in harness, with the staircase scene wherein she let herself freely fall as one of the most noteworthy parts of the show. As she gained consciousness after her exhausting quest, she found herself in the darkest world in the universe where she was also able to retrieve the glowing star. Now cladded in a white gown, Anne made the whole room shimmer when she raised the star and finally found her daughter. This ensued to their heartwarming reunion, with Anne crying as she once again sang "A Sky Full of Stars". Ion, Jackie, and the other dancers went back onstage and danced along with them.

Aptly called "RockPasikat", the live production number commenced with Kim and a group of dancers hauntingly dancing to Classical music from singer Elaine Duran.

The mini-concert was then joined by more special guests: hitmaker Adie, rapper Kritiko, ex-Kulay member Radha Cuadrado, Color It Red vocalist Cooky Chua, and singer Jason Dy. Jugs, Teddy, and Kim once again took on the makeshift revolving stage, which the dancers turned for the three to execute their backward stage dive and to include the audience in the frame. | 5th Place Average Score: 8.63 | Video | [89][90] |
| Team Vice-Amy (November 17, Thursday) | Vice Ganda and Amy Perez delivered a powerful message that they incorporated in every part of their breathtaking production. It started with a synchronized dance number courtesy of the talented A-Team dancers. A montage of people doing blue-collar jobs was then flashed on the screen, with Vice expressing through voiceover that they dedicate their presentation to those people who are mainly using their hands at work. Tyang Amy was the first one to appear onstage, showing off her dancing skills in a black embellished dress. Along with the dancers, they did routines that resembled sewing and measuring lengths, representing tailors. After a quick costume change, Amy began to dance ballroom in her glittery red frock with their guest star Enchong Dee. After Tyang Amy's splendid dance number, Vice then dominated the stage in his black and gold avant-garde number. The segment, which represents manicurists, began with someone putting glitters on Vice's studded gold fingernails and was then joined by the dancers in gold costumes, who were able to perfectly execute their coordinated hand routines and successfully created an illusion behind him as he sang "Unholy" by Sam Smith and Kim Petras. Singer KZ Tandingan joined him onstage, also dressed in a black and gold outfit as well as gold nails on their fingers. They also paid tribute to construction workers by having some of the dancers act like them, which served as an introduction to Tyang Amy's second dance number, wherein she and the dancers executed a synchronized hand and hip-hop routines while in their heavy-duty suits. Vice returned to the stage, but this time in a black-and-white ensemble with an enormous headdress. He was accompanied by differently-abled dancers in wheelchairs. The rest of dancers rejoined them to perform another harmonious arm routines. As the upbeat music subsided, a deafening silence permeated the studio for 50 seconds as Jasmine Gabriel spoke to the audience through sign language. In a dance routine, everyone onstage went on to do sign languages that convey "put your hand on me", "applause", and "I love you". Tyang Amy and Enchong returned to the stage and continued dancing, as well as KZ who belted out a portion of their final song. | 2nd Place Average Score: 9.23 | Video | [91][92] |
| Team Karylle-Ogie (November 18, Friday) | Karylle and Ogie Alcasid brought an amusing and colorful retro-inspired musical titled "Dito Sa Puso Ko", which featured the timeless and legendary music of Ogie himself. The trio of Nonong Ballinan, Jerald Napoles, and Benj Manalo in multicolored ensembles enthusiastically welcomed the audience to "4ever Mall", the setting of this wonderful extravaganza that was totally popping in colors. It started off with a perky performance of "NakakaLokal" by Mandy, played by Karylle, along with the back-up dancers who were in vibrant retro outfits. Ogie then emerged onstage with a guitar, wearing a black and white costume, and an enormous wig that resembled his character Norman's glum and bland life after the love of his life ghosted him. The trio introduced him as a musician who lost his hope and found it difficult to rise up from his misfortune, so people started calling him "Norman The Loser". As they encouraged him to start finding his lost love, Norman serenaded everyone with his classic hit "Mahal Kita Walang Iba". That indeed captured the heart of the ever-animated Mandy, who spoke to him about happy ending and forever even though he got his heart broken a lot of times. Benj, Jerald, and Nonong tried to help by hollering his past flames, with Regine Velasquez-Alcasid as the first one to heed the call. Cladded in a green dress, pink thigh-high boots, and white wig, she belted out "Hanggang Ngayon" as her character still harbors feelings towards Norman despite being “friend-zoned” by him. Just when she thought that the time had finally come for them, he told her that he loves her as a friend. The second girl to respond to their call was Jolina Magdangal-Escueta, who was in a bright red and yellow dress and sang a lively version of "Nandito Ako", as her way of reminding him that she's there for him "as a friend". As they summoned the woman who loved Norman for the third time, Melai Cantiveros-Francisco suddenly appeared behind the hurados who were sitting then among the live audiences. Norman and dancers performed blues and jazz versions of "Kailangan Ko’y Ikaw", which was followed by Melai's performance of the Magandang Buhay theme song along with Jolina and Regine. Bituin Escalante then emerged onstage in a funky get-up, and was introduced as the woman who loved him, too, but circumstances were against them. She and Norman sang a mash-up of "Bakit Ngayon Ka Lang" and "Pangako". After the duet, Mandy advised him that he must always give his all when it comes in love and proceeded to sing an original composition about letting yourself to fall in love. A woman's voice was then heard on 4ever Mall's PA system, searching for Norman. It appeared to be Zsa Zsa Padilla, whose character Zaza is Norman's long-lost love and Mandy's mother. In a grand twist of fate, Mandy was revealed to be their daughter. The three wicked stepsisters of Zaza, portrayed by Miss Q and A alumni led by comedian Brenda Mage, then arrived and expressed how they object to their relationship, even after more than two decades of taking her away from him. But this time, Zaza is determined to give their relationship a second chance as she still loves, and performed “Sa Kanya”. With the help of the people from 4ever Mall who drove them away, they were able to get their happy ending. Norman reprised "Mahal Kita Walang Iba", but this time with his family. Benj, Jerald, and Nonong once again went back onstage to remind everyone that "forever" and "happy ending" cannot only be found between two people, but also among family, friends, community, and countrymen. The production capped off with the entire cast performing "Dito Sa Puso Ko", as he switched to a multicolored costume. They also reprised "NakakaLokal" as the cast members took their bows. | 3rd Place Average Score: 9.18 | Video | [93][94] |

This edition marked Darren Espanto's debut on the competition after joining the show as a regular host in March 2024. However he has appeared as guest performer for Team Vice-Ryan-Jackie in the 2021 edition, and has been one of the hurados in the 2022 edition. This year's competition also marked the return of Magpasikat week being held in October after the past three editions were held in November; and was also the first Magpasikat to air on both ALLTV and GMA.[130] This year's judges were television and film director Rory Quintos, actress and beauty queen Alice Dixson, actor Donny Pangilinan, actress Gabbi Garcia, and former ABS-CBN president and Pilipinas Got Talent judge Freddie M. Garcia.
The grand prize for this year's competition is ₱300,000 for the champions' chosen beneficiary, while the prize for the second and third-placing groups are ₱200,000 and ₱100,000, respectively. At the end of the week, Team Ogie-Kim-MC-Lassy emerged as winners. The team's victory marked Kim Chiu's fourth win overall, tying with Jhong Hilario for the third most Magpasikat wins, and the first win for Ogie Alcasid and the comedy duo of MC "Muah" Calaquian and Lassy Marquez. Meanwhile, Team Jhong-Jackie-Cianne and Team Anne-Jugs-Teddy were declared as second and third placers, respectively. For the first time, the teams Vice-Karylle-Ryan and Vhong-Ion-Darren-Amy finished fourth and fifth, respectively; however, neither group received consolation prizes.[131]
