/ 02:25 PM January 07, 2016

Filipino netizens did not waste their time thinking up witty titles about some shows that they want to see on online streaming site Netflix as it can now be accessed in the Philippines.

Using the hashtag #NetflixPHShows, netizens played with the titles of American and local shows to come up with their funny and witty titles of shows which may not even see the light of day.

Some poked fun on celebrities, politicians–such as Senator Grace Poe, Vice President Jejomar Binay, and Senator Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr.–and even lyrics of hit songs to make their own Netflix shows.
