GMA 7 to launch new free-TV channel QTV
Saturday
Oct 29, 2005
GMA 7, one of the Philppines’ larger television networks, is set to launch QTV (QualityTV) on November 11, 2005. Channel 11 is operated by ZOE Broadcasting Network, Inc. (chaired by Bro. Eddie Villanueva), which is to lease its full airtime to GMA.
From Wikipedia:
In the early part of 2005, Citynet, a subsidiary of GMA Network
and ZOE-TV entered an agreement for Citynet leasing the entire TV
airtime block of Channel 11 in exchange of a upgrading the facilities
of ZOE and a ZOE-TV program on GMA-7 every Monday midnight after its
Sunday primetime TV block.Come November 11, 2005, QTV Channel 11 will join the league of
free-TV channels as it goes full blast. QTV-11, GMA Network’s VHF
station, will air a colorful lineup geared mostly towards women and
women’s concerns.
Ka Edong writes a short review on Pinoy.tech.blog:
In all, I think QTV will have programs that are more thematically and
audience-focused. They’re finding another venue (another channel
altogether!) where they do not need to go by the proven formula for
success: international soap-operas (espanyol nobela, chinobela,
koreanobela, indinobela, crapnobela) or local fantasy-soaps.
Wow, Wikipedians are sure fast to put up news, even on the local front (here from the Philippines). I hope QTV would be the answer to the otherwise degrading moral standards of local free TV. With scandals left and right (especially on the showbiz front, and sometimes even in the news!), the Filipino audience deserves a fresh approach to free TV programming.
Kudos to GMA for this cool concept.

TO QTV CHANNEL 11; 1ST OF ALL BAKIT NIYO TRINANSFER SA SUNDAY SCHED ANG KOREANOVELA, TAPOS YUNG UNFORGETTABLE AFFECTION HINDI NIYO TINAPOS. GANYAN BA GAGAWINNIYO SA LAHAT NG PROGRAMNIYO WALANG TAPOS?? WALA KAYONG CONCERN SA VIEWERS NIYO KAHIT PA SABIHIN NA KONTI PA LANG. PAG HINDI NIYO YAN INAYOS, KAKALAT TALAGA ANG BAD DISPOSITION NIYO SA TAO.

GOD bless your network QTV! for your public services segments just like THE REUNIONS which helps the people connect to each other specially to those who had been separated for a very long time. I am one of the people who have a case like that my tita doesnt visit her homeland for almost 20 years. thats why I Pass in your site here, asking for your help. We are just a poor citizen of The island of mindanao, dito kasi nakapag asawa ang mama ko sa misamis oriental, pero ang totoong probinsya nang ina ko ay sa Zumarraga west. Samar . Kapatid po ng ina ko ang matagal nang hindi umuuwi sa Samar. hanggang sa ngayon hindi pa niya alam na patay na si lolo, at hinahanap siya nito ng lolo bago pa siya namatay noong march ng taong ito.
sinscerely yours,

all we have just known is My tiyahin , Anita versoza (HER name when she was not married) is currently living at the province of bulacan,. but its not easy for us to search her because manila is far away from our place, opol misamis oriental. I receive also information from my relatives in Zumarraga island , that she have her family now, once and last they visit zumarraga. all what we want is her presence and not of what she has now, I want to complete this mission because my lola was already too old, I don’t want, that she will pass in this world not feeling the presence of her daughters, dont want she will feel as what lolo felt, my lolo died searching for his daughters, (Tiya Anita and my mother) cause at that time we haven’t been in samar for a very long time since 1989 the last visit of my mother in samar, recently this may of this year I,d took back the communication from our family to my grandmother, by using my friendster searching my cousins since I knew what town they are set in, through FIND BY TOWN. And currently i still continue to search my tita for the sake of my clan.
