On February 16, Kapuso star Teejay Marquez highlighted the continuously increasing TV ratings of their GMA Afternoon Prime series Makiling.
At the media conference for their upcoming film After All, which LionhearTV covered, Marquez happily appreciated the audience’s response to their Kapuso revenge series.
“Nakakatuwa kasi nalaman talaga natin na iba ‘yung mga Filipino pagdating sa revenge serye. Sobrang inaabangan na nila– sa hapon pa ‘to, tsaka ‘yung timeslot namin dito mahirap talaga mag-rate, kasi ano ‘to eh, kalagitnaan.”
He then hinted at the increasingly tense scenes, especially with the four-week extension of Makiling.
“Sobrang thankful kami na may mga viewers na kami at tumataas ng tumataas ang rating namin. Tsaka paganda ng paganda ‘yung show kaya abangan ninyo po ‘yung show kasi ito na ‘yung paghihiganti ni Almira. Kaya talagang feeling ko tuwang-tuwa lahat ng prod pati ‘yung mga artist ng malaman namin na ma-extend kami.”
He also underscored the campier scene now that Almira, Elle Villanueva’s character, has returned to take her revenge against the Crazy 5.
“Extended lahat siguro. Paghihiganti, extended. Pagpapahirap at lahat ng drama tsaka lahat ng mga– hindi natin alam kung ang mae-extend ba ‘yung paghihiganti, so aabangan namin sa mga lalabas na script kung sino ba ang i-extend. Kami ba or ‘yung pagpapahirap sa amin ni Almira. Baka bumalik sa amin ‘yung karma.”
He also thanked their supporters and fans for the four-week extension of their GMA Afternoon Prime series.
“Salamat po sa mga nanonood ng Makiling, extended po kami ng four weeks.”
As for their upcoming romantic-drama film, ‘After All’ stars Beauty Gonzalez, Kelvin Miranda, and Teejay Marquez with Devon Seron, Katrina Llegado, Juan Carlos Galano, Tart Carlos, Kiko Ipapo, and Riana Pangandian.
