If you were a fan of any of these shows, if you grew up and have fond memories of all those stories and characters, then please say thanks (and a prayer) for my dad Buddy Tan. He would've turned 61 last January 28.
As a teen-ager, my dad started working as a DJ in a radio station in Bacolod. He worked his way up and eventually became General Manager of the TV stations BBC2, RPN9, and IBC 13. After that, he continued to be a "blocktimer", buying airtime and providing the networks with some of the TV shows listed above. Later on, he was the first to venture into broadcasting on the UHF band. He launched SBN 21, which he ran til his final years.
Brandie once pointed out, that even though my dad was rarely home, he taught us and kept us company with the TV shows he aired.
It's 12:26am and I'm still at work. If my dad were alive, I'm sure he'd still be at work as well. I guess doing OT does run in the family.
