In a statement, ABS-CBN expressed how grateful they were for his hard work and dedication. 

“Today (October 1), Kim Atienza bid goodbye to the viewers of TV Patrol after many years of delivering the nightly weather news. No doubt, Kuya Kim has become an iconic name on Philippine television just like his predecessor in our primetime newscast, the late Ernie Baron. For 17 years, he shared knowledge and wonder to our viewers, as well as the many young Filipinos who grew up watching and learning from him in Matanglawin.”

“We thank him for his dedication, passion, and most of all, service to the Filipino people. All the best, Kuya Kim! Forever Kapamilya,” the network added. 

In a phone interview with Manila Bulletin, Kuya Kim confirmed that he is set to host three shows in GMA-7, an offer that was too good to pass up. He stated that he will be joining Mars Pa More, a daily entertainment trivia show, and will be making his debut on the prime-time news program24 Oras on the week of Oct. 4.
