Local television shows tend to circle around romantic relationships more than anything else. When it comes to entertainment (even in the small screen), it’s best to invest in quality and not quantity.įilipinos love their hugot stories and third-party dramas, but this love is a little overexploited. And while it doesn’t inherently mean anything bad, it could be reason for a few things: Less quality work, overworked people and a stretched out plot. Here in the Philippines, a new episode comes out every night. In the US, a new episode comes out every week. How are we supposed to tell Filipino stories when we can’t properly depict Filipinos? And action scenes- gasp-mess with you hair. Girls who come from the provinces tend not to have alabaster skin and city boys know enough not to wear crisp white sneakers when they’re made to farm. Rich people do not wear gowns to dinner with full faces of makeup and CEOs do not wear suits to work every single day. And- oh my god-love triangles, mistresses and langit lupa love stories. Having a mustache probably means you’re the antagonist. Rich means really rich and only driving around in luxury cars. Ugly means glasses, unruly hair and less-than-ideal skin.
