It’s a revamped version of “Face 2 Face” that Karla Estrada on TV5 starting May 1.
Evolving with the changing times, this 2023 reboot will have elements that were not in the original that first aired in 2010 and was hosted by Amy Perez. At the show’s press con at the TV5 Studios on Reliance St. in Mandaluyong, TV5 president Guido Zaballero said Monday that unlike in the first “Face 2 Face,” actual resolution of the issues will be shown.
It is the hope of the people behind the program, added Zaballero, to help fix issues that may have ultimately help unclog the justice system in the country.
Face 2 Face gives a fresh take on the popular talk show’s format with its new mantra, “Isyu ay harapin, huwag palakihin” as it features real people with real problems and finds the best possible resolution to their conflicts.
Ready to help resolve these issues are the show’s resident Trio Tagapayo — “Dr. Love” Bro. Jun Banaag representing the clergy, Atty. Lorna Kapunan giving legal advice, and Dr. Camille Garcia sharing her perspectives as a psychologist. This new Face 2 Face covers a wide range of topics, from family relationships to personal struggles and triumphs, all with a goal of inspiring empathy and understanding between the conflicting parties.
With Mama Karla’s motherly compassion and Alex Calleja’s quick wit, they make an interesting tandem whose teamwork can help diffuse tension in the studio. It will definitely be worth seeing them in action as the new hosts of Face 2 Face.
“Face 2 Face,” the “barangay hall on air,” will premieres this May 1 on TV5 and on One PH. It will air from Monday to Friday at 11 a.m. on TV5, and 8 p.m. on One PH.
