It's Showtime (formerly known as Showtime and Magpasikat) is a Philippine noontime variety show that premiered on October 24, 2009, on ABS-CBN. The show broadcasts from the ABS-CBN Studios at the ABS-CBN Broadcasting Center in Quezon City. The show airs weekdays from 12:00 pm to 3:00 pm, and Saturdays from 12:00 pm to 3:00 pm, and is presented mainly by Vice Ganda, Vhong Navarro, Anne Curtis, Billy Crawford, Karylle, Amy Perez, Nadine Lustre and James Reid. The show is also broadcast worldwide through The Filipino Channel.

It's Showtime is the second live entertainment program in the Philippines to be broadcast with a true high-definition picture, after ASAP, sports programs and various shows. It's Showtime also belongs to ABS-CBN's elite list of longest running daily noontime variety shows that aired for five years or more, after Student Canteen (1958-1965), Eat Bulaga! (1989–1995), MTB (1998–2005) and Wowowee (2005–2010).

On October 24, 2009, Showtime premiered as a morning program, airing before the network's noontime shows, and served as the replacement for Pilipinas, Game Ka Na Ba? following its successful 8-year run. The original cast consisted of Vhong Navarro, Anne Curtis, Kim Atienza, Jugs Jugueta and Teddy Corpuz, and Vice Ganda as the permanent judge. During the third season, the show added previously evicted judges Billy Crawford and Karylle as hosts.
