Luis, Billy to host ABS-CBN's new show "Panahon Ko 'To"

After hosting the successful first season of "Pilipinas Got Talent," Luis Manzano and Billy Crawford will work together again for an upcoming game show of the Kapamilya network entitled "Panahon Ko 'To," an all-original Filipino trivia show.

The unique chemistry of the young men when it comes to hosting opened the door for the new hosting job.

"Bihira naman kasi usually sa TV sa mga hosting. It's either nakikita mo na solo or babae at lalaki. Bihira ka makahanap ng partner na ultimong kulitan niyo at saluhan niyo ay nandoon," Manzano said.

According to the hosts, the new game show is really different from other game shows ever produced by the Kapamilya network.

"It's an original game show. It covers eras from 1960s to 2000," Crawford said.
Manzano said that the game show will have group contestants whose members have different ages.

"Very versatile. [Para] sa buong pamilya at mga barkada din. [It's] reminiscing the old times at saka historical din," Crawford added.
"Para sa amin nakakatuwa kasi it brings back the memories," Manzano said.
