Soap Opera in the U.S., Telenovela in Latin America, Lakorn in Thailand, Sinetron in Indonesia, Phim Bo in Vietnam & Dorama in Japan...

in the Philippines we call it Teleserye!

Teleserye is the local name of produced soap operas in the Philippines,derived from the terms "tele" short for television and serye, ("series"). They can have different sub-genres; they could be melodramatic, fantasy themed (fantaserye), action (actionserye),musical (music-serye), or they could be be derived from movies(sineserye).

Teleseryes are produced by the two main Philippine TV networks ABS-CBN, which is Philippine's largest producer and exporter of Teleseryes and,GMA Network,by the independent company TAPE Inc. and by the movie producer VIVA Entertainment.

I'm glad that the Phils is exceling very much with this matter. I used to never like it because the quality was bad. Maybe after I watch new ones my perspective will change.

“Cindy-rella” begins in the fairy tale world, where Prince William (John James Uy) is celebrating his 21st birthday. His uncle invites all the ladies in the kingdom to a ball, hoping to find a wife for his nephew. Among those invited is the pretty, kindhearted Cindy-rella (Kim), but on the night of the ball, her evil stepsisters and stepmother tear her clothes and lock her in the basement.

Cindy-ella's fairy godmother comes to the rescue and enables her to go to the ball in a fancy dress and carriage. But she warns that Cindy-ella should be home by midnight or she'll be caught back in her usual filthy clothes.

The story goes on until after the prince chooses Cindy as his dancing partner. Her wicked family grows envious and throws her into a well, which links the fairytale world and the real world. The poor lass comes into the real world unconscious; fortunately, she is saved by a modern-day prince charming, Albert (Gerald).

He falls in love with her, so he helps Cindy-rella survive in the real world. But can they be together when they belong to different worlds? Will Cindy choose Albert, a normal human being, over a dashing prince in the fairytale realm? Will there be a happy ending for Cindy-ella?

The said series is a remake of the animated series Princess Sarah, produced by Nippon Animation, based on Frances Hodgson Burnett's novel, A Little Princess.

Sarah Crewe studies in a boarding school for rich girls. Although motherless, Sarah is rich in love showered by her father, Capt. Christopher Crewe. But one day her father has to leave for an expedition… and is lost and presumed dead.

The sufferings of Sarah begin, the heretofore princess-like child works as a maid in the boarding school headed by the cruel Ms. Minchin. But with her pure heart and kindness, Sarah emerges not only as the princess of diamonds, but princess of hearts, as well.

yes, actually.. maybe because gma's target are the masses.. know what, i sometimes feel embarrassed whenever they use some kind of "high quality effects" they call..because even the first ever superman film did better.. i'm not critcizing "our" own works..but i wish they try doing their stuffs a lot better.. im not an expert but surely i know what's good from "not that good"..

i think they're now showing Marina somewhere...

let's face it...

every time these networks come up with something new, it always ends up in the gutter.

(but i do like watching marian river in a two-piece swimsuit and katrina halili in the black darna costume)

Encatadia is good for me although at first it felt like I was watching LOTR but nevertheless it showed a fresh genre in TV. I think it's even the first TV series that show cased the Filipino alphabet and writing we call ALIBATA.

It can be seen in Episode 1. I just don't know if you can find it somewhere.

[gergoz]

Bobby is a Culinary Arts graduate and the chef of their restaurant. John is a Law graduate who has already taken, and unfortunately, failed the Bar Exams twice so he needs to take it again. Jen happens to be the sweet, caring, and loving sister of John.

Bobby will do everything just to get John’s attention and Jen will not stop until she gets Bobby’s heart. She would always give gifts and bake something for Bobby. Little did they know that they are consulting the same article in a magazine about capturing someone’s heart.

I must say, the script was very good and there were no fillers. The characters were established in the first scenes. The story develops gradually and ended with a cliffhanger that no one could have guessed.

With regards to the actors, Joross is the man! He has no pretensions in portraying a gay role. Cathy and Victor were great too. The three leads have nice chemistry and the camera just loves them.

Although inspired by the movie “Threesome”, the story of Without You is totally different as the three characters are deeply connected with each other. Victor and Bob have feelings for each other, Cathy has feelings for Bob, Victor loves his sister Cathy and he doesn’t want her to get hurt. In the midst of all complications, the characters accidentally find love.



On the first day that he saw him, Bobby (Joross Gamboa) already fell in love with John (Victor Basa). But the problem is Jen (Alex Gonzaga) is in love with Bobby, and the bigger problem is that Jen is the sister of John!
