==== Cash Motto ====
==== Cash Motto ====
In the ''Cash Motto'' segment, a random studio audience member who sent in a motto, gets to play a game with winnings up to P1,000,000. He/she will have one minute to grab as much cash as they can get in an air tank. He/she should only grab the money in the air. He/she cannot take peso bills while it is on the tank itself. The contestant is provided a broom to loosen up the money, so more will fly in the air. The amount of money he/she gets is what they keep. If the total amount of money he/she grabbed reaches P40,000 or over, he/she will receive a Wowowee Videoke along with the money he/she grabbed. Another random studio audience member is also chosen after the segment. This second audience member does not get to play the game, but has to guess what the first audience member grabbed in the tank. The co-hosts usually give a hint on the range of what the member has won. The contestant has up to three guesses to guess how much he/she won. If the contestant gets the guess right, they win whatever the other player won. If they fail to guess, they still win P1,000 for playing. This game is played at least two times on weekdays, three times on Saturdays.


==== Hep, Hep, Hooray ====
==== Hep, Hep, Hooray ====
Ten random audience members get to play ''Hep, Hep, Hooray''. The game retired at the end of 2009, but quickly returned on January 4, 2010 due to more audience demand than its predecessor, ''Samson, Lion, and Delilah''.

In this segment of the show, the audience will be dancing to [[Willie Revillame]]'s hit song, "Kembot" (previously "Boom Tarat Tarat" and "Igiling Giling"). This opening song number is the theme tune for the choosing of the ten random audience members, the audience is warmed up for the public displays of talent, where Willie and his co-hosts will draw from the audience, from different sections including the TFC subscribers to dance the song in an entertaining way.

The objective of the game is to repeat the words "Hep" "Hep" "Hooray". A co-host puts the microphone in front of a contestants face and they are supposed to say "Hep Hep" while clapping their hands together below their waist, then another co-host will put the microphone to another contestant's face and they are to finish the cheer with saying "hooray" and raising their hands in the air. If a contestant makes a mistake, they are out of the game, but they win P1,000 and a gift pack from Rexona as a consolation prize. This is a last person standing game. The one who lasts the longest wins.

Since ''Cash Bukas'', the old bonus round for the game has moved on to ''Willie of ForTune'', new rules were written on its relaunch. The final person standing goes for the final round, where the contestant can duel against one of the three "Amazonas"- April (previously Jana), Lovely, and Aiko. During the duel, same rules apply repeating the words "Hep" "Hep" "Hooray". The contestant's goal is to beat the "Amazona" to win the jackpot, which always starts at P10,000. Every day the jackpot is not won, another P10,000 is added to the jackpot. In January 25, 2010, Jana was removed as an Amazona due to losing three times, therefore, April replaced her.


==== Willie of ForTune ====
==== Willie of ForTune ====
Six people selected earlier through "themed" auditions compete in pairs in rounds of ''Willie of ForTune''. This is where the in-house keyboardist plays a portion of a song, and the first person to name the song correctly wins one point. If the player can correctly sing the exact lyrics from that portion of the song, they will receive the second point. Two points are required to win the round and get to round two. In this round, the three remaining players go to a knock out question. One song will be played, and whoever can buzz in the correct song title first wins P10,000 and advances to the jackpot round, ''Cash Bukas''.

Every Saturday, celebrity teams of four play against each other. Same gameplay rules used in the weekday version exists. However, the team who gets to five points first wins, and goes straight to the jackpot round, ''Cash Bukas''.

==== Cash Bukas ====
In the ''Cash Bukas'' segment, the winner of ''Willie of FortTune'' (previously the player is taken from ''Hep, Hep, Hooray'') gets to play for four prizes. 10 trays are available for the player to select, while the player only selects three to play with. Next, the player must choose only one tray. The player is offered increasing amounts of cash until the player takes the offer, or keeps playing to open the tray. Starting in February 20, 2010, the game was sponsored by [[Safeguard]] with a new twist in the game, adding Sakit (''Hurt''). If a contestant does not choose "Sakit" from the three trays, a P10,000 bonus is awarded. The trays offered in the game follows:

* 1: P100,000
* 1: P500,000
* 1: Grand Negosyo (Sinski Maton & Hammerhead)
* 1: P1,000,000
* 1: Sakit (if not chosen, P10,000 bonus from [[Safeguard]])
* 6: Cheap Prizes (ex: sandals, salted egg, noisemakers, etc.)


==== Tic Tac to Win ====
==== Tic Tac to Win ====
''Tic Tac to Win'' is a game that premiered on January 1, 2010, with a similar format to past "end-games" in the show, like its predecessor, ''Want More, No More''. Beginning on February 6 of the same year, the game is only played recurring.

* '''Tumpak o Sablay (Correct or Fail)'''
A group of fifty contestants are asked a trivia question that was also asked by a random person in the streets (previously asked by celebrities until 1/7/10, but returned 1/30/10). The contestants must go to either side of the stage "Tumpak" (Correct) or "Sablay" (Fail) to guess if their answer is right or wrong for the question asked. Similar to ''Pera o Bayong'', the last person standing on the round gets to play for the jackpot round with P10,000 to keep.

* '''Jackpot Round'''
A total of twenty letters (A-T) with different prizes in different amounts will be across on a 5x4 board. The winner of the previous round will choose nine letters from the board, and will put the letters to their desire on a giant tic-tac-toe board.

Prizes go as follows:

*4: Brand new car
*4: House and lot
*4: P1,000,000

Eight letters have instant cash to keep for the contestant to win:

*4: P10,000
*3: P25,000
*1: P50,000

Their goal is to make a tic-tac-toe of one of the three prizes whether it is horizontal, vertical, or diagonal. If the tic-tac-toe is achieved, he/she wins whatever it was achieved, including the instant cash they won.

Year Game Name Game Description
2005-2008 "Bigtime" Pera O Bayong "Bigtime" Pera o Bayong was a game that was brought from Magandang Tanghali Bayan. The game first started in February 5, 2005. The game relaunched with "Bigtime" added at the name on October 6, 2008.

A group of 50 people are asked a question with three answer choices labeled A, B, or C. They must stand near the letter they preferred to choose. This is last man standing, so the game is continued until one is left. The final person wins PHP10,000 and goes on to the next half of the game. The final contestant, then makes a choice from 10 "bayongs" (bags), and then the hosts have several bargaining sessions where they offer the contestants a cash offer in exchange for the chosen bayong. If the player stays with the bayong, he or she wins whatever is inside it. The three grand prizes are PHP1,000,000, a house and lot, and the Bigtime Bayong containing PHP1,000,000, a house and lot, and a brand new car.

2005-2008 Bigat 10 Ten random audience members are chosen to play on round three of Willie of Fortune. Willie then chooses one of them (now two at a time) to come up on stage. Willie asks a question and if the contestant answers correctly, the Bigat 10's are eliminated for good. However, if the Bigat 10's answer correctly, the contestant wins P3,000 - that is subtracted from the total winnings from the contestant which was rewarded to him/her prior to the game.
2005 Act-U A contestant tried to guess what a celebrity guest was trying to act out. This game is similar to charades.
2005 Call A Kolokoy A Questune contestant and 2 other randomly selected audience members were asked questions, but the "buzzers" were located above them. If the Questune contestant won, the contestant advanced to the next round and won a prize, and the two audience contestants would get PhP 500. If one of the other contestants won, both won PhP 5,000. This game was later replaced by Isang Talon Isang Sagot.
2005 Sketch on the Rocks A contestant attempted to draw picture of a word selected out of a fishbowl while other contestants attempted to guess what it was, but the paper on the board constantly scrolled up. After 30 seconds, the drawer would move to the "rock board", where the player attempted to write out what the answer was, but the board shook making it more difficult. If the guessers could figure it out, the drawer won a the prize that he or she selected beforehand. If the guessers couldn't figure it out after 30 seconds on the "rock board" and after 5 more final seconds, the drawer did not win anything.
2005 Touch Ako The last contestant of Willie of ForTune goes for the last round. 10 TFC subscribers are placed inside a circle with a protective mask and velcro outfit. The goal for the contestant is to eliminate the 10 TFCs in under 60 seconds, using balls provided for the contestant which stick to the velcro, blindfolded. If the ball sticks to any of the TFC's outfit, he/she is eliminated from the pack. The TFCs however can move the circle anywhere on the stage, not off stage obviously. If the contestant eliminates all, he/she wins the showcase he/she has chosen to play for and the jackpot. If not, they lose the showcase.
2005-2006 Doblado Sigurado Played after Bigat 10, Doblado Sigurado offered a chance for the contestant to double their winnings. A box containing 5 chips (each one being black and white) would be passed around the audience, and the contestant would predict how many would come up White and how many would come up Black. If the prediction was right, the contestant's Bigat 10 winnings were doubled. If it wasn't, the player walked away with only PhP 10,000. This game was later replaced by Pasalog.
2005-2006 Wow! Wow! Win! sa Wowowee! All the home viewers must do is answer a question correctly, with the provided possible answer containing 5 letters or less. If the home contestant texts in and answers correctly, one random viewer will receive PHP25,000.
2005 Green Cross One of the Pera o Bayong contestants was randomly picked from the group, and won PHP5,000. In one of 3 bags was PHP20,000, and the player had to guess which one contained the prize. If the player picked correctly, he or she would win a total of PhP 25,000. The game was sponsored by Green Cross, a Filipino soap brand. This game has only been played once.
2005 Huli Kaw! This game involves getting random people off the streets to answer a trivial question. If the person answers the question correctly, he/she wins PHP5,000.
2005-2006 Isang Talon, Isang Sagot The 3 Questune contestants left standing advanced to this round, were asked trivia questions. If he/she knew, the contestant jumps to "buzz in". 5 points are required to advance to the Bigat 10 round. The game was later replaced by Sinong Kumanta Ng Kantang 'To?
2006-2008 Sinong Kumanta Ng Kantang To? Three contestants compete to buzz in and answer the artist of the song played. The first to 2 points wins. The game was later replaced by Tanong Ko, Sagutin Mo.
2006-2009 Pasalog In Pasalog, the contestant has a chance of winning different prizes provided by sponsors, including a progressive cash jackpot increasing every show if not won. Dice containing logos and symbols are placed into compartments in beach ball like spheres. The balls are then passed around the audience (or sometimes rolled around the stage if there is not enough time). When the pasalogs are returned, the compartments are opened. If the face of the dice facing up has a symbol or logo, the player wins the corresponding prize. Pasalog was originally played with a similar cube shaped container.

In part of the new set on March 31, 2008, Pasalog changed to three balls.Where in Mariposa at the left side, Milagring at the right side and Luningning at the middle. [1]

Ball One Ball Two Ball Three
3 P10,000 & 3 P20,000 3 X2 & 3 X5 1 Grand Negosyo, 1 X1, 3 ÷2, 1 X5
2007-2008 Guess the Presyo, Get the Premyo! Sponsored by Mega Sardines, is a game which debuted on the November 19, 2007 episode of Wowowee. 5 players picked from the studio audience are assigned numbers and have to attempt to arrange themselves in the correct order to the correct price of the day's prize in 90 seconds or less. The first digit of the price is always given. If the contestants get it right, they win the prize.
2007 Wilyonaryo This game became entangled in one of the more larger controversies associated with Wowowee when it debuted in August 2007. The 50 contestants who competed had to predict the result of surveys answered by audience members with remote controls. Some contestants were offered a chance to stay where they were, switch their guess, or walk away with a cash offer before the answer was revealed. After one contestant is left, he/she chooses 12 tablets in any order they'd like. Those tablets are then placed in a horizontal shelf with a chute on the bottom of each of them for the ball to enter. He/she is then given two labels written "P20,000" and is told to place those labels on the top of those tablets on where they think the ball will land on. On a giant pinball machine, the contestant drops a pinball and can bump on random money values of P1,000 through P5,000. The pinball with eventually land to the end of the chute, where the horizontal shelf containing the tablets are connected. Wherever the ball lands is the tablet you must play with; if that tablet, by the way, was labeled with that "P20,000" sticker, you win an extra P20,000 to your winnings, so your total winnings build up fast. Then, the gameplay begins to be similar to the jackpot round in Pera o Bayong. Prizes include House & Lot prize, PHP500,000, PHP1 Million and PHP2 Million--the top prize.
2007 iYugYugan Na! Five lucky contestants are chosen from the audience and is brought to center stage. While they show off their mediocre dancing to the song, Willie then randomly chooses any of the 5 to answer a very simple question. If the chosen contestant answers correctly and quickly, s/he is still in the game and awarded an extra PHP500. The lucky contestant is decided and is brought up the stairs and is given two die. Only one side of each of the two die contain that "YUG Jackpot" which it what the contestant MUST get. If only one of the die lands on the jackpot, he/she wins an extra PHP5,000. If both die land on the jackpot, the contestant breaks the bank! If none land on the jackpot however, he/she is awarded an extra PHP10,000 for playing.
2008 Coca-Cola 50 Million Family Panalo: Cash o Bukas? 10 players get to play, 5 on each side. The object of the game is to be the last person standing with a coke cap. Each person starts off with 5 Coca-Cola caps. They are asked questions and players must place the caps on the letter they think its right. For example, a player can put 2 caps on A, 2 caps on B, and 1 cap on C. They bring the platform up so the other players can see what they chose. Then, the correct answer caps are stayed on the platform, while the others fall down. The last person standing with a Coke cap advances to the jackpot round. The final contestant gets to play for the cash prize. There are 26 letters on the board, (A-Z, excluding X). The player must get all 15 Coca-Cola logos to win PHP1,000,000. Along the way, the player can get prizes like a portable DVD player, MP3 player, etc. They must avoid the strikes as much as possible. If the player gets 3 strikes, the game is over, and loses all the money, although they can still have the other prizes with them. However, a player can get the Coke smiley and eliminate a strike with PHP50,000 and year supply of Coca-Cola. However, there is still a chance they will get eliminated.
2009 Eight O'Clock A studio player gets to play for up to P200,000. A random member in the audience plays together, and both work together to get the top prize. There is a bunch of chips on the board and decide which to take one by one. Each chip show different prize amounts shown below. 5 chips for a certain prize amount is require to win it. Bonuses are randomly on the board, too. Each player gets the prize unsplit.
2009 Want More, No More This game replaced the former game Bigtime Pera O Bayong.
  • Elimination Round

A group of 50 people are asked a question and then given two choices to answer that question, "Oo" (Yes) or "Hindi" (No). Within a certain amount of time, the contestants must line up behind the sign labelled with their preferred answer. The co-hosts then reveal the correct answer, and those who queued behind the sign labelled with the wrong answer are eliminated; the contestants who chose the correct answer remain in the game. This is a last-person-standing game; the game process continues until one person is left remaining on the stage. The last-remaining contestant receives PHP10,000 then plays the Jackpot Round.

  • Jackpot Round

The contestant, who won the Elimination Round, plays for a chance to win one, two or all of the following major prizes the game has to offer: a Jeep, a House and Lot from Global Asiatique, and PHP1,000,000.

There are 25 "bayongs" on the stage, each labelled with letters from A-Z (excluding X), and each containing a case. Each case contains a logo, which will determine the amount of the contestant's winnings. Five cases display a silhouette of a jeep in a yellow circle, which each adds PHP10,000 to the contestant's winnings and increases the chances of winning the Jeep. Six cases have a silhouette of a house in a green circle which, as well, each adds PHP10,000 to the contestant's earnings and increases the chances of winning the House and Lot. Nine cases contain a bold, black number '2' (before it is labeled as '1' for 1 Million but now it is '2' for 2 Million)in a red circle, which, too, adds PHP10,000 to the contestant's money and increases the chances of winning the million Pesos. Contestants who play this round, however, have to be cautious, as there are four cases that contain a large 'X' in a red circle that will cripple the contestant's chances of taking home his or her earnings. If the contestant opens three of the cases with the large 'X' on it, he or she would lose the game and not be allowed to take home their earnings. There is one special case that bears the 'W' used in the logo for Wowowee that, if opened, guarantees that the contestant will take home PHP50,000, even if the contestant chooses three "bayongs" containing the cases with the large 'X' on it.

2009 May Regalo May Regalo is the jackpot round for the winner of Knock Out. This segment is very similar to Merrygalo from 2007. There are 16 presents to choose from. The top prize is P500,000.

5 circles
5 squares
5 stars
1 Random Grand Negosyo
1 Knorr Real Sarap

1 of each kind: P20,000
2 of a kind: P50,000
3 circles: P100,000
3 squares: P250,000
3 stars: P500,000

The contestant chooses three boxes, but may change the boxes at any time before opening if requested.

2010 Samson, Lion, and Delilah

This game is similar to the rock-paper-scissors hand game, but instead named after Bible characters Samson and Delilah. As in Hep, Hep, Hooray, 10 random players get to play the game. They had to dance to Willie's latest song, "Kembot Na".

  • Samson beats lion.
  • Lion beats Delilah.
  • Delilah beats Samson.

In round one, two players will be fighting each other. Since there are ten contestants, there will be five rounds. Whoever loses is already out of the game, but gets P1,000 and a Rexona gift pack. The five remaining contenders face off the celebrity champion, Pokwang.

In round two, the remaining five contestants competes against Pokwang, the celebrity champion. Everytime a contestant wins, P500 is won for themselves. If a contestant loses against Pokwang, the contestant still wins P2,000 and a Rexona gift pack for making it far. The contestants with continuing winning streak will continue until they lose, leaving with their winnings, plus P2,000 and a Rexona gift pack. When two contestants are left, a face-off (sudden death) will commence. Winner of the face-off will go against Pokwang for the jackpot of the day. The jackpot is always P10,000 plus another P10,000 each day the jackpot is not won.

Special shows

World tours

Wowowee has broadcast episodes from other locations in the Philippines, and has also went on World Tours to other countries such as the United States (San Francsico, New York City, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Reno, Chicago, Honolulu, Atlantic City, San Diego and Houston), Australia (Sydney), Guam, Canada (Winnipeg), and Dubai. [2].

In celebration of TFC's 15th anniversary and Wowowee's 4th anniversary, Wowowee has planned a grand world tour for 2009. Starting in Dubai, the tour will reach Italy, United States (San Francisco, (Seattle, Orlando and Las Vegas) and Canada (Toronto).

Alay sa Kapamilya

Alay sa Kapamilya was a program organized by ABS-CBN as an observation for the PhilSports Arena stampede victims. It preempted Wowowee for six days while the network decided over the fate of the variety show. The shows were a solemn tribute to the victims, featuring performances by ABS-CBN regulars. Eventually, ABS-CBN decided to temporarily cancel the variety show until its return on March 11, 2006.[3]

Honoring Overseas Filipino Workers

In several occasions, the show has paid tribute to Overseas Filipino Workers (OFW's) serving across the world. On the August 2, 2006 episode, Wowowee with cooperation with the Overseas Workers Welfare Administration (OWWA) produced a special edition saluting and featuring female OFW's who returned from Lebanon where a war was present in that country. They were all invited to attend and even participate in the show that day. The contestants during the first half that day were close friends of the OFWs, while an unspecified number of OFW's participated in "The Ultimate Pera O Bayong". All the winnings won in during the show were combined together and evenly distributed to all of the OFWs in the audience, with the grand total of winnings being PhP 1,390,000.[citation needed]

Armed Forces of the Philippines Join Wowowee

On September 1, 2007, about Five Hundred (500) soldiers came in full force to television noontime show Wowowee. Representatives from the Major Services, AFPWSSUS and Technical Services come to play and have fun during the show and take a crack at the grand prizes in different games.

Highlights of the event were the interviews with the loved ones of Marines who lost their lives in the fight against the Abu Sayaff Group/ MILF rebels in Basilan last July 10 and August 11, 2007. Tearfully, loved ones recounted their last communication with the fallen Marines. Host Willie Revillame also asked each of them for a short message and everybody was moved to tears during the emotion-filled moment. AFP, PIO Chief LTC Bartolome Bacarro held back his tears but could not help it, just like the rest. Emotions rose again when candles were lit for the Marines. [4]
