Antonio Pablo Tuviera (born February 6, 1952), more simply known as Tony Tuviera or by his nickname Mr. T, is a Filipino media producer and businessman. He served as the president and CEO of Television and Production Exponents Inc. (TAPE Inc.), the production company behind the noontime show Eat Bulaga! which he co-founded in 1981 with fellow businessman Romeo Jalosjos Sr. as well as the show's original hosts Tito Sotto, Vic Sotto, and Joey de Leon.^[2]

Tuviera attended high school at the Colegio de San Juan de Letran in the 1960's.^[3]

In March 2023, the new management of TAPE Inc. forced Tuviera to retire as the president and CEO and Romeo Jalosjos Jr. was named as his replacement. Tuviera still has ownership of the company as of June 2023 according to Tito Sotto.^[4] The original Eat Bulaga! hosts came into a dispute with the new management which would eventually lead to their exit from TAPE Inc. (but not leaving the show itself) at the end of May.
