“It’s Showtime” made a spectacular comeback and debuted strongly on its new and earlier timeslot at 11:30 am on weekdays with exhilarating new segments, “It’s Showdown” and “Funanghalian,” that trended on social media last Monday, October 30.

Netizens expressed their delightedness in seeing the ABS-CBN’s hit noontime show return to its classic roots and featuring the amazing talents of Filipinos in dancing in “It’s Showdown,” while having a dose of laughter with the banters of hosts in “Funanghalian.”

In “It’s Showdown,” two groups will face each other in ‘Hatawan-on- one’ and ‘Dance Showdown’ to impress the judges.

In the first round, each group will choose one representative to do a dance-off in the Dance Arena, while in the second round, both groups will showcase their prepared pieces. In the event of a tie, the hosts will pick one member from each group that will do a solo showdown.

On its maiden episode, AMK Rock Nation was declared the winner after they garnered a total score of 4.2 points from judges World of Dance country director Vimi Rivera, Star Magic head choreographer Mickey Perz at “ASAP’s” Queen of the Dancefloor Kim Chiu.
