About Season 2

Tab TV

Tab TV returns for a second season with edgier chats with specially selected guests. Hosted by Vernetta Lopez, the new season promises no-holds-barred discussions on issues ranging from aphrodisiacs to cyberspace addiction.

Get an insight into topical issues which have raised public debate such as organ trade. Some episodes will also play devil’s advocate on topics such as 'Why do youths still think it’s cool to smoke? Is Exorcism for real? Does it really chase away evil spirits? Why do some even think spirits exist?'

As in season one, there will also be Tab Sting – a 'hidden camera' segment where Tab TV does an experiment how people connected to the story, would naturally and normally behave.

And in Tab Chat, learn first-hand as to why certain people do the things they do. Listen in as a man who used his video phone to record himself having sex tell us what thrills him to do that. And why is a man who uses Tongkat Ali so convinced the natural plant gives him extra powers? See first-hand, up close, how a person who had tattooed nearly every part of his body look like and listen to why he did it.

Celebrities will also be invited to share their opinions on the issues discussed and they include Zoe Tay, Vincent Ng, Chew Chor Meng, Priscelia Chan, Amy Cheng and her husband Chandran, Singapore Idol Finalists, Gayle Nerva, Joakim Gomez, Paul Twohill, Jasmine Tye, Jay Lim and many more!
