Piolo, Pepe, & Pia in the Wacky Love Triangle of ‘My Papa Pi’

“My Papa Pi,” the new show that will bring joy and good vibes to Filipinos, is finally airing this Saturday (March 19) featuring the “hopefuls” of Mapag-asa Street led by Piolo Pascual, Pepe Herrera, and Pia Wurtzbach.

Follow the story of twins Pipoy (Piolo) and Popoy (Pepe) and Tere (Pia), the woman that completes the love triangle starting tomorrow, 7 pm on Kapamilya Channel, A2Z, Kapamilya Online Live on Facebook and YouTube, iWantTFC, and TFC.

“My name is Pipoy Papa. Kambal ko si Pepe Herrera. Meron kaming tumbungan kaming kambal tapos meron akong anak si Mikay, na mahal na mahal ko. Marami kaming pangarap sa buhay kaso sa kasamaang palad may nangyari sa kambal ko and I had to do something para matuloy ‘yung legacy namin na tumbungan,” said Piolo about his character.

In the teaser released by Star Creatives Television recently, it was revealed that Pipoy and Popoy, who are total opposites, will become one after the sudden demise of the latter. Will Tere and their neighbors at Mapag-asa Street find out about their secret?

Meanwhile, “My Papa Pi” Cathy Garcia-Molina told viewers that apart from Piolo, Pepe, and Pia, they will surely love the other characters in their sweetcom played by Joross Gamboa, Katya Santos, Hyubs Azarcon, Anthony Jennings, Daniela Stranner, Frenchie Dy, Alora Sasam, Allyson Mcbride, Anthony Andres, Quincy Villanueva, Haiza Madrid, and Madam Inutz.

“Hindi lang naman si Piolo at si Pepe at si Pia ang bida dito. But the entire community, the hopefuls. So they are as important as them. It’s going to be entertaining for all of you,” shared Direk Cathy.

Just like the people in fictional Mapag-asa Street, the cast and crew of “My Papa Pi” have bonded well after being in lock-in taping for months, wherein a set resembling a real community famous for tumbungan was built.

Before the show’s debut on Saturday, the “My Papa Pi” family, led by its stars, will watch the premiere episode together this Friday (March 18) with some physically attending while some will be in zoom. Netizens were also given a chance to watch the first episode online, 48 hours in advance yesterday (March 17) via iWantTFC.

HBO GO’s Fiercest Female Characters Redefine ‘Girl Power’

From Effie White with her amazing voice and personality that arrested everyone in the room in Dreamgirls (2006) to Imperator Furiosa with her willingness to put her life on the line to free the Five Wives in Mad Max: Fury Road (2015), aren’t we all glad to have strong female role models across pop culture to inspire young ladies growing up?

With more women at the helm of productions in recent years, more of these girl power-focused tropes have come to life — with their stories of individuality, resilience, strength, and womanhood front and center.

HBO GO celebrates Women’s Month by spotlighting some of these heroines and their inspiring journeys. From Gossip Girl’s misunderstood queen bee to Batwoman’s self-effacing medic, meet strong, relatable women and discover their stories only on HBO GO — powered by PLDT Home’s fastest connections. For only P149 a month or P299 for three months, access HBO GO’s library of award-winning series and blockbusters conveniently charged to your monthly bill!

Gossip Girl’s Julien Calloway

She’s as moneyed as an Upper East Sider as she’s influential as an Instagram celeb. With her shaved head and supermodel bod, Julien (Jordan Alexander) rocks as the new Queen Bee of Constance in this Gossip Girl reboot. Make no mistake, though: While usually nice, JC uses her Serena van der Woodsen-esque charm and Blair Waldorf-trademarked sense of authority to her advantage. In the recently concluded first season, she shows off a backbone of steel — defying her father’s wishes to connect with her half-sister Zoya and then confronting him about his sexual abuse allegations. In contrast to the OG GG queensthough, Julien exhibits more accountability. In one episode, right at Zoya’s birthday party, she realizes she has gone too far in bullying her sister that she asks everyone in the crowd to record her unexpected “I’m a bully” admission.

And Just Like That…’s Seema Patel

As the overdue follow-up series to the iconic Sex and the City, And Just Like That… proves that women can hold their own — no matter the decade or phase in life.

The show may have its original leads in Carrie, Miranda, and Charlotte, but no one translates this message more than 50-something realtor Seema (Sarita Choudhury). A new addition to the series, Seema is a breath of fresh air — playing a major role in showing the recently-widowed Carrie that there is still more to life after Mr. Big’s death. She even helps her find a new apartment! Unabashed and opinionated, Seema points out Carrie’s mistakes including this one insensitive — albeit unintentional — remark on her love life and age.

Stream And Just Like That… now on HBO GO

KIMI’s Angela Childs

Trauma affects people in different ways — Angela (Zoë Kravitz), a sexual assault victim too scarred to step out of her Seattle loft, knows.

Angela works from home as a data monitor for Amygdala, a tech firm whose products include a smart speaker that uses human monitoring to improve its search algorithm called Kimi (think Amazon’s Alexa). It’s the perfect job for her until she hears a terrifying voice recording that has her suspect someone is being assaulted.

Angela reports the incident to her superiors, but none believe her — an experience she knows too well after being disbelieved for her own assault. In this new scenario, she finally musters the courage to check out what’s beyond her front door and gather enough evidence to make a case.
