David Archuleta doing a series for TV5?

I don't know how true this is but hey, it's in the TV station's official website (unless it was hacked). Anyway, American Idol alum David Archuleta is scheduled to arrive in Manila on Friday, January 13 to do a prime time series for local network TV5. According to the website, he'll be working with TV5 talents Jasmin Curtis Smith and Eula Caballero. [Update: It is true. Apparently, it was announced yesterday on TV5's showbiz talk show Paparazzi.]

TV5 surely is upping the ante in its persistent bid to get past its no. 3 spot in the ratings game. And might I say, it's doing so in an expensive fashion.

Archie's signing up may be huge for a local production but in the U.S., he hardly has a career anymore, especially after he was dropped by his label for poor sales of his last album. Another question is, I thought he was taking a two-year sabbatical from showbiz to serve as a Mormon missionary?

Oh well, let's see. At any rate, welcome to the Philippines, Archie! I guess you find that it's more fun in the Philippines, eh? I'm a David Cook fan, by the way.
