Meanwhile, GMA Network’s pioneering documentary program “I-Witness” triumphed as Best Documentary Program.
Award-winning and well-loved family sitcom “Pepito Manaloto,” bannered by Michael V., won as Best Comedy Program.

In the radio category, GMA Network’s flagship AM radio station Super Radyo DZBB took home several awards as well. Enriquez won as this year’s Best News Program Host.
