Noontime Show is the second studio album by the Filipino rock band The Itchyworms, released by Universal Records Philippines on October 11, 2005. A concept album, it mocks traditions of the Philippine mainstream entertainment industry, parodying long-standing elements of Philippine soap operas ("Soap o Pera"), power couples or love teams ("Love Team"), game shows ("Balde o Salapi"), love-advice radio shows ("Mister Love"), etc.[1][2]
Critical reception
In a review for The Philippine Star, Baby A. Gil wrote: "Songs in Noontime Show are amusing, irreverent and has a lot to say about the Filipino noontime variety show on television. Think production numbers, contests, love teams, etc., etc. . . . I admit they can be sarcastic at times and the songs might not sit well with some people. But it is hard to come across albums that effectively combine nice melodies and social commentary in one package, so we might as well enjoy this one."[1]
Music bogger Tabachoi wrote in his blog Tito Hits ni Tabachoi: "Maikukumpara ko ang Noontime Show sa Fruitcake ng Eraserheads, ang kauna-unahang Pinoy rock concept album na narinig ko. Maraming characters, maraming point of view. Pero ang pinagkaiba nito, ang Fruitcake, nag-revolve sa isang story. Ang Noontime Show, nag-revolve sa isang mensahe." (I can compare Noontime Show to Eraserheads' Fruitcake, the first Pinoy rock concept album I ever heard. Many characters, many points of view. But the difference is, Fruitcake revolves around a story. Noontime Show revolves around a message.).[3]
