GMA-7's Mel and Joey is set to go off air before the end of this month. This announcement from the management came a surprise especially to host Mel Tiangco, when they were informed that their taping last July 6 was their last. It brought tears to the staff of the show which has aired in GMA-7 for the past seven years.
Joey de Leon, the co-host of Mel Tiangco, became a part of the show last 2004 when Jay Sonza left to run for Senator. From Mel and Jay, it became Mel and Joey.
In fairness, the show has a high rating and it has wondered many why the show will be axed. GMA-7 has not yet issued a statement on this one.
Mel and Joey will still be on air this July 17 and 24 before it ends its seven years of being a part of our Sunday TV habit. GMA-7 is planning a talent show will replace Mel and Joey and to respond to ABS-CBN's "Pilipinas Got Talent" and TV5's "Talentadong Pinoy."

Quite surprised and sad with this since there are still a lot of adverts during the show. I guess it's because of the need to compete with the other networks.
Yes, since they had to compete with the changing genre. TV5 has Talentadong Pinoy and ABS-CBN has Pilipinas Got Talent.
