Lunch Out Loud is a Philippine noontime variety show broadcast on TV5 which premiered on October 19, 2020. The program, which airs Mondays through Saturdays from 12:00 NN to 2:00 PM, (with an encore telecast on Cignal's exclusive channel Colours Mondays through Saturdays from 5:00 to 7:00 PM). is presented by notable ABS-CBN talents and social media influencers, namely Billy Crawford, Alex Gonzaga, Bayani Agbayani, K Brosas, KC Montero, Wacky Kiray, Jeff Tam, Laboching and Mark Averilla (aka Macoy Dubs).[1] Lunch Out Loud is one of the numerous programs produced by Brightlight Productions, the production outfit of former Rep. Albee Benitez, and is produced by veteran television director and former Star Magic head Johnny Manahan.[2][3] The newest noontime show on Philippine television (and of TV5 since Wowowillie) marks the temporary return of Gonzaga and Agbayani to the Kapatid Network (however, unlike in the previous years, this is indirectly due to a blocktime agreement between Brightlight Productions and TV5) after several years away.[4]
