FOLLOWING the success of its counter-programming strategy in its
‘Weekend Do It Better’ programs and ‘Everyday, All The Way’ primetime block,
TV5 continues to do away with traditional television programming this 2014 and
dares to be different with its own variety of program offerings for the whole
family.
The Kapatid network begins the year with a bang with its daily programs
that are both surprising and out-of-the-box.
Coming from the success of the
daily primetime serye Madam Chairman, Megastar Sharon Cuneta will carry on to
the daily tawaserye My Pirated Family. In this series, Sharon will play
a one-of-a-kind street-smart woman who cons her way to the world of the rich
and famous by putting together a fake family.
Aside from My Pirated Family, Megastar Sharon Cuneta will have her
first-ever drama anthology entitled Minamahal.
Further, the network will
also have a Philippine adaptation of two hit Korean dramas, Baker King
and My Fair Lady.
TV5 also dares to offer more than the daily 30-minute teleseryes through
providing hour-long dramas that promise to be bold, intriguing and
game-changing every Thursday night. Starting this January, Marvin Agustin, Neri
Naig, Bianca King and Martin Escudero will star in Obsession, a
controversial, cutting-edge medical drama about a woman who undergoes extensive
cosmetic surgery to win back the heart of the man she’s obsessively in love
with.
Meanwhile, highly-acclaimed actress and Kapatid primetime princess Jasmine
Curtis Smith stars in a self-titled drama series as a fictional version of
herself. In the series, Jasmine encounters a mysterious stalker who becomes
obsessed with every detail about her.
Second quarter of 2014 will also be thrilling as TV5 brings the local
adaptation of the US hit series Pretty Little Liars to Philippine
primetime. Topbilled by TV5 homegrown talents Sophie Albert, Chanel Morales,
Stephanie Rowe and introducing Daniel Lee, a group of friends mourn over the
death of the leader of their clique, hoping that their secrets go to the grave
with her.
The Kapatid network also dares to change Tuesday television programming
by offering a new take on its mini-series. Eula Caballero plays a struggling
lady taxi driver in the fast and furious romantic comedy, One Of The Boys.
Alwyn Uytingco topbills Beki Boxer where he portrays the role of Maneng,
a gay boy who has boxing skills that could make him a famous champion boxer. Derek Ramsay and Aga Muhlach team up for the first time in the drama series My
Brother’s Keeper where they play brothers who get caught in a sibling
rivalry of epic proportions.
A whole new season of reality, game, talk and talent shows also comes to
TV5 with more surprises, shake-ups and much more at stake. Aga’s successful
game show Let’s Ask Pilipinas gets extended for another season, along
with Gelli de Belen and Tintin Bersola-Babao’s social reality talk show Face
The People. Well-loved TV5 programs such as The Million Peso Money Drop
and Talentadong Pinoy, to name a few, will also make a comeback to the
Kapatid network. The network will also launch exciting new game shows, some
adaptations from hit foreign game shows and some Kapatid originals. Lucy
Torres-Gomez will once again claim her reign on the dance floor as she hosts Celebrity
Dance Battle.
The biggest race on Philippine television also returns to TV5 with Derek
Ramsay hosting The Amazing Race Philippines: Biyaheng Asya. With a
multi-million budget and bigger prizes at stake, the show will once again put
together 11 teams who will race hard and race fast for two million pesos.
In addition to all these exciting shows, TV5 will officially launch
sixteen (16) original made-for-television movies starring cinemas’ biggest and
most iconic stars. Never-before-seen films and ensembles, as well as
much-awaited reunions of unforgettable match-ups like Tirso Cruz III and the
one and only Superstar Nora Aunor, come together in Studio 5’s 2014 Original
Collection.
News5, the news and information arm of TV5, will also launch a series of
documentaries exploring the vast wealth of the Philippine islands and the
problems we encounter in managing such wealth. From our land resources, water
resources to our human resources, Yaman ng Bayan will show viewers
the richness of our natural resources, stressing the importance of tapping
these natural wealth responsibly.
Seasoned journalists led by News5 chief Luchi
Cruz Valdez, Head of News5 Operations DJ Sta. Ana, Head of News5 programming
Patrick Paez and InterAksyon.com Editor-in-Chief Roby Alampay will also host
their first-hand documentaries on iDokyu.
With this remarkable line-up of new shows for the coming year, the
Kapatid network breaks the habit of traditional TV to satisfy the modern
viewer’s craving for fresh and vibrant entertainment programming. Indeed, those
who dare to be different this 2014 should make the switch to the only station
that dares to make a difference, TV5.
