'Bubble Gang' teases Senator Tolpu, Cong. Kikoy spoof characters

It's not just Cornee Dismaya who viewers will be seeing soon in "Bubble Gang!" 

According to Nelson Canlas' report in "24 Oras" Wednesday, more spoof characters are set to be introduced in the iconic comedy show.

This includes "Senator Tolpu," played by Paolo Contis, who will be joining Ciala and Cornee Dismaya in the next hearing on Sunday's episode. 

Ciala and Cornee Dismaya are a play on Sarah and Pacifico "Curlee" Dismaya, who are among the contractors involved in the probe into anomalous government flood control projects. 

Michael V. earlier spoofed Sarah in "Bubble Gang's" first sketch of its Ciala Dismaya parody, which aired on September 14. 

Meanwhile, viewers will also get to see the character of "Cong. Kikoy," played by Kokoy De Santos, in the show soon. 

In the report, Kokoy's character can be seen wearing a suit and glasses as he takes a video of himself singing and meowing, an unmistakable reference to Cavite 4th District Representative Cong. Kiko Barzaga. 

"Naniniwala ako sa freedom of speech kaya gagawin ko kung anong gusto kong gawin," his character says. 

According to "Bubble Gang," there will be three sketches on Ciala Dismaya, all written by Michael V. himself. 

In a previous interview with GMA News Online, Bitoy said that with the flood control issue among the most talked about topics in the Philippines now, there is a clamor for the character of Ciala Dismaya.

He added that his platform and sketches are ways to raise awareness on current events.

"Feeling ko, kung makakatulong 'to sa pag-create ng awareness sa mga totoong nangyayari, sa issue na nangyayari sa bansa natin, e 'di sige. By all memes."

"Bubble Gang" airs on Sundays at 6:10 p.m. on GMA Network.
