More fun and adventure in ‘Tropang Potchi’ Season 7

Continuing its mission of imparting traditional Filipino values to its viewers, Tropang Potchi opens its seventh season with more exciting episodes and new segments every Saturday morning.



Besides a more techie and child-friendly hangout place, viewers will expect a big change in the program as Tropang Potchi features reality-adventure segments.

Season 7 is dubbed as the show’s biggest and most ambitious season to date. Viewers are in for a treat because the favorite morning barkada will bring their fans to scenic places in the Philippines such as Ilocos Norte, Batangas, Subic, Bais, Pampanga, Tanay, and Laguna. More adventure to look forward to as they tour the audience to their out-of-town escapades.

Aside from these, one of the highlights of the newest season is Tropang Potchi’s “Potchilikula”, a film festival featuring kid filmmakers. Watch how these kids make use of their skills and imagination in this project. The films of the chosen finalists will be featured in the program from December 22 to January 5.

To start off the Christmas season, Tropang Potchi goes to the Higantes Festival in Angono, Rizal. The spirit of Christmas will surely be felt as Julian (Julian Trono), together with his Ninang Maey (Maey Bautista) reminds viewers the importance of appreciating gifts as thoughtful gestures and not as material possessions in their episode on December 1.

Tropang Potchi Season 7 airs every Saturday morning on GMA7.
