History

On June 14, 2024, Willie Revillame confirmed that his new program, Wil To Win, would debut on TV5 that marked his return to the network after eleven years since Wil Time Bigtime (formerly Willing Willie). [1] The show produced by MQuest Ventures, which Revillame partnered with in April 2024. [2] A live television special, titled "WIL-come Back Party", was aired on Sunday, July 14 to celebrate the show's launch; [3] the special event was held at the New Frontier Theater. [4]

Regular programming commenced on July 15, every Mondays to Fridays from 17:00 to 18:30 (PST). [5] On July 29, 2024, the show extended its time slot from 16:30 to 18:30 (PST). [6] On September 16, the time slot reverted back to 17:00 (PST) after removing a segment. [7] In October, several female hosts had been removed from the show. [8]

On February 3, 2025, the show quietly began simulcasting on RPTV, but only when there are no live sporting events (e.g., PBA games) or special programming scheduled on the channel. On February 10, Revillame temporarily left the show to run for senator; Randy Santiago became the show's substitute host. The show subsequently reduced its airing time to an hour starting February 11. [9] It aired its final episode on April 25, 2025, entering a “season break.”

On July 3, 2025, it was announced via the Wil to Win Facebook page that Willie Revillame is set to come back to television, over two months after losing the 2025 Senate election. However, Wil to Win will be discontinued with Wowowin to be revived in its place. A separate series, Wilyonaryo will also be aired. [10]
