A 'Kilig-Filled' Finale of "The One That Got Away" Airs Tonight!

3:57 AM by Runner RockyNo comments

After 90 nights of bringing good vibes to televiewers, GMA 7’s The One That Got Away is all set to deliver a kilig-filled finale tomorrow, (May 18), on GMA Telebabad.

The sexy rom-com series is undeniably a hit among netizens and Kapuso viewers who have consistently followed the extraordinary and crazy lives of Rhian Ramos as “Zoe”, Max Collins as “Darcy” and Kapuso Premier Actress Lovi Poe as “Alex” who formed an unlikely but strong friendship after discovering that in different times in their lives, they were romantically linked with the same guy “Liam” played by Dennis Trillo during different times in their lives.

Lovi reveals it’s an honor for her to play the role of Alex and she will miss working with her co-stars most especially Dennis. “He is very tahimik but very giving. Pag kaeksena mo siya, wow nagshi-shift siya. Ang galing. I’m very happy kasi first time namin ni Dennis na magkaroon ng TV project. Everything is fresh and brand new.”

The Kapuso Premier Actress will definitely treasure this show since they’ve grown as a family on set. “I will also miss everyone’s craziness sa set which is a good thing. Sila Zoe and Darcy especially sila Direk Mark (Sicat Dela Cruz), makukulit lahat talaga.”

Max shares she’s happy she got to work with an amazing cast. “The friendship and the “family” we created on set are really special. We have a great bond and chemistry that’s hard to find in show business.”

She also has many memorable moments portraying the role of Darcy including “our fight scenes because they were pretty wild and fun to do. We were all like kids just playing around.”

Rhian enjoyed portraying her character very much. She’s glad that people loved her character, Zoe, as much as she did. “Sobrang enjoy ako. Sinasabi ko nga sa sarili ko, “Girl, kelan ka pa makakakuha ng ganito, enjoyin mo na siya!” Kasi characters like Zoe don’t just drop on your lap all the time.”

She definitely loved doing the soap because it’s very light and she had a great time working with everyone. “I’m really happy and flattered and natutuwa ako na naeenjoy ng mga tao kasi this is a very different kind of show, medyo experimental siya for us to do. Pero nung tinanggap nila parang, “Ah okay, ready na pala yung audience for this.” Nakakatuwa kasi mas nakaka inspire na maging creative kasi nga out-of-the-box siya, kung saan-saan mo siya pwedeng dalhin,” she said.

Dennis shares that the love and support of the fans and viewers have been their source of strength and inspiration since their pilot airing. “Masarap ang pakiramdam na marami ang nakapanood at hindi nabalewala ang pagod namin. Masaya kami kasi going strong ang The One That Got Away. Nakakatuwa kasi kahit nasa ibang bansa ako, “Liam”, ang tawag sa akin, “he said.

Meanwhile, check out the behind-the-scene video below:

The One That Got Away has a stellar cast including Kapuso heartthrobs Ivan Dorschner, Migo Adecer and Jason Abalos.

Meghan Markle’s Character in the TV Series "Suits" Stands her Ground for Gender Equality

12:52 PM by Runner RockyNo comments

All eyes are on Prince Harry and American actress Meghan Markle as they prepare to tie the knot on May 19. The Big Day will be another sensation in the history of British royal weddings not only because the bride-to-be is a commoner or because the couple is having lemon elderflower instead of the customary fruitcake. Rather, Markle says she is delivering a speech at the reception—a privilege often reserved to the most important men of the event: the groom, the father of the bride, and the best man.

A staunch advocate of gender equality, Markle has never been shy about her views despite knowing that she is marrying into British Royalty, which isn’t allowed to speak publicly about politics. Royal watchers may find her defiance of protocol shocking, yet fans of the actress aren’t strangers to her strong personality and feminism in her fictional role as Rachel Zane in television legal drama Suits.

Here are just a few times Markle as Rachel Zane has stood up for herself in a sea of ambitious and powerful men:

Not Daddy’s Little Girl

The daughter of a skilled lawyer and law firm name partner, Robert Zane, Rachel would rather support herself financially through hard work than take advantage of her father’s wealth.

Too Smart for a Paralegal

Rachel may be a paralegal for almost six years, but she is not afraid to show that she’s a lot better than most associates in the firm. Just having her own office is proof that her abilities are recognized by the bosses.

No Easy Target

There’s no excuse for men to flirt with a woman they fancy in a professional setting. Rachel makes sure she sends the message clearly like when she called out Mike Ross (Patrick J. Adams) during his orientation for hitting on her and ogling the whole time. She even keeps a drawer of staplers to keep tabs on how many men have flirted with her at work.

Femme Fatale

If she does want to reciprocate a man’s interests, Rachel can be very bold and might even make the first move.

Curious about Meghan Markle’s stint on television? Suits airs starting 17 May 2018, 7:55 PM on Blue Ant Entertainment. Blue Ant Entertainment is available on SKYcable channels 53 (SD) and 196 (HD), SKYdirect channel 35, Destiny Cable channel 53, and Cablelink channels 37 (SD) and 313 (HD).

Jennylyn Mercado and Tom Rodriguez Team Up for the First Time, Cast Members of 'The Cure' Reveal

1:24 AM by Runner RockyNo comments

True to its mission of showcasing compelling and world-class entertainment, GMA Network brings its loyal Kapuso viewers another ground-breaking concept with its upcoming primetime series, The Cure, beginning April 30.

The Cure’s premise is set on an experimental drug that kills cancer cells. However, its side effect causes a deeper problem—the mutation of a dangerous and highly contagious virus called the Monkey Virus Disease or MVD wherein anyone infected begins to have seizures and becomes rabid and violent. Soon, law and order is non-existent as the disease spreads not only in the city, but also throughout the entire country. Now more than ever, it is crucial to find the very thing that would save everyone—a cure.

The series is under the helm of esteemed director Mark A. Reyes who is excited for the viewers to witness a new genre in primetime. “It’s very exciting, a story of survival—survival of humans, survival of family, survival of two people in love, it’s a bigger picture. It’s fresh, it’s new, and the whole essence of a suspense-drama is here. I knew from the start it was going to be big,” he shares. “I’m approaching this cinematically; I’m using film cameras for our taping." To make the series more interesting, Direk Mark said they incorporated a gorilla to the storyline and used Animatronics.

Ultimate Star Jennylyn Mercado and multi-talented actor Tom Rodriguez headline the series as Charity and Gregory Salvador, a happily married couple. Charity used to be a registered nurse, but she left her job to focus on her husband and only daughter, Hope. Greg is the family provider, working as a Clinical Research Associate in an international pharmaceutical laboratory. They both live a peaceful life, until Greg’s mother is diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer.

Playing equally vital roles are respected and multi-awarded TV and movie actress Jaclyn Jose as Dr. Evangeline Lazaro, head of the Research and Development Team in the same pharmaceutical company Greg works at and the one who discovered the experimental drug that created a nationwide epidemic; homegrown Kapuso actor Mark Herras as Darius, a one-track mind man who is ruthless, strong, skilled in physical combat, and relentless in getting what he wants; award-winning Kapuso actress LJ Reyes as Katrina, the company’s Clinical Research Associate and Greg’s friend from college who is secretly in love with him; and with the special participation of versatile Kapuso actor Ken Chan as Josh, the only son of Dr. Lazaro. He is a top doctor who would rather serve the poor than private hospitals.

Completing the powerhouse ensemble are Jay Manalo as Fernan, the pharmaceutical’s fearless lead security officer who forms a survivor colony in the midst of the epidemic; Irma Adlawan as Agnes, Greg’s mother and the first patient to be infected by MVD; Ronnie Henares as Eduardo, a selfish and cruel board member of the pharmaceutical company; Glenda Garcia as Lorna, Charity’s mother who never really cared for her until they reunite during the outbreak; Diva Montelaba as Suzy, a video blogger who disseminated the news about the stolen experimental drug which mutates into a horrifying virus; Arra San Agustin as Anna, a smart and dedicated doctor like her boyfriend, Josh; Leanne Bautista as Hope, Charity and Greg’s jolly and intelligent daughter.

Set in a world succumbing to the worst, The Cure is an action-suspense drama which shows that our daily battles are worth fighting, as long as we are fighting for our loved ones and our family.

Behind the series is the creative team composed of creative director Roy Iglesias, creative head RJ Nuevas, creative consultant Denoy Navarro Punio, headwriter Richard Cruz, writers Luningning Ribay, Glaiza Ramirez and Lobert Villela and brainstormers Tina Velasco and Pam Miras.

The Cure is created by the GMA Entertainment Content Group under the supervision of Senior Vice President for ECG Lilybeth G. Rasonable, Vice President for Drama Redgie A. Magno, Assistant Vice President for Drama Cheryl Ching-Sy, Senior Program Manager Cathy O. Perez and Executive Producer Winnie Reyes.

This is yet KathhNiel’s first Vivo mall tour. Since their reveal at the Vivo V7+ launch September last year, the duo has been busy championing the brand actively through social media and print.

KathNiel’s upcoming mall tour is only one of Vivo Philippines’ efforts to bring their latest flagship smartphone, the Vivo V9 closer to the audience. The Vivo V9 is an artificial intelligence (AI) selfie camera with a 16 MP+5 MP dual-camera setup. Much like its predecessors, the V7 and V7+, the V9 also rocks a 24 MP selfie camera that comes with features like AI Face Beauty Natural Light, Studio Light, and Monochrome background which brings selfie-taking with the new Vivo smartphone several notches higher in the quality scale. Selfie-fans will also benefit in the ample phone display of the Vivo V9 as it could improve the overall composition of every photograph taken, with enhanced clarity and definition.

This handset is powered by an octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 626 SoC and boasts of a full view 6.3-inch screen with a 19:9 aspect ratio. The V9 also has reduced side bezels to a mere 1.75mm, giving users great viewing experience because of its higher screen-to-body ratio of almost 90%. 04/19/2018 (TV Series Craze)

No Lies About Lying in Blue Ant Entertainment's Series

3:13 AM by Runner RockyNo comments

In the time of widespread “fake news,” it’s easy to think of lying as bad and damaging. After all, parents and schools teach children honesty as part of moral upbringing. Acts of fraud, misdirection, and manipulationby politicians and corporations are also called outon the news under the banner of justice. One example is financier Bernard Madoff who ran a Ponzi scheme for years in the United States that stole almost $65 billion from thousands of investors.

History nevertheless offers examples of deception used for reasons beyond evil. One is the fictitious illness “Syndrome K,” invented by the Fatebenefratelli Hospital in Rome to shelter Jews during Nazi persecution.

Of course there are less serious examples of harmlessdeceit. Just think of stand-up comedians coming up with a bogus story for the sake of humor. Screenwriter David Misch recalls a talk where a critic quotes Louis C.K. to make a point on the authenticity of comedy: “I went to a bar the other night. Where isn’t important, because I’m lying.”

If deception isn’t necessarily malicious, what is it?

The Ubiquity of Lying

Dr. Timothy R. Levine, Professor and Chair of Communication Studies at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, says in a National Geographicarticle by authorYudhijitBhattacharjee, “We all lie, but not all lies are the same. People lie and tell the truth to achieve a goal: ‘We lie if honesty won’t work’.”

Like the three instances above, people lie with different intentions. Bhattacharjee’s article summarizes these based on findings by researchers: self-promotionto take advantage, improve image, or make others laugh; self-protection to cover up a mistake or escape responsibility; impact to help others, uphold social rules, or cause harm;and no apparent reason, as in the case of pathological liars and people with unknown motives, even to oneself.

More surprising is the frequency of lying. According to a survey conducted in the United Kingdom by Richard Wiseman, Professor of the Public Understanding of Psychology at the University of Hertfordshire, most adults tell two important lies every day and that one-third of their conversations have some form of dishonesty. People also fail to detect four in five of these lies. The results further showthat more than 80 percent have lied to gain employment, while over 60 percent have cheated on their partner at least once. Only eight percent claim never to have lied.

Ingrained in Humanity

Whether it’s a harmless fib or a full-blown fraud, deceptiontakes a certain level of complex thinking. Naomi Stewartin an essay for online magazine I, Sciencesuggests that lying comes naturally to organisms with higher brain functions, such as human beings, since it takes advanced neural processing to weave a false story and remember its details.

Psychologist Kang Lee from the University of Toronto observes this kind of cognitive complexity in children. In an experiment that asks children not to peek at a hidden toy while the experimenter is away, 30 percent of the two-year-old participants have lied, while the number increases to 50 percent among the three-year-olds and 80 percent among the eight-year-olds. Even how the kids have given themselves away shows the increasing sophistication of lying as age goes up. For instance, participants aged three and four simply say what the hidden toy is, while those who are six make an effort toinvent an elaborate reason toexplain why they know the answer.

The study gives insight to how lying is linked to cognitive development. This link has also led some researchers to believe that dishonestyis a product of evolution with the emergence of more sophisticated thinking and language.Unlike primitive primatesthat rely on strength to survive, human beings are empowered by bigger brains and language to seek other ways to get what they need, such as through trickery.

“Lying is so easy compared to other ways of gaining power,” says Sissela Bok, an ethicist at the Harvard University. “It’s much easier to lie in order to get somebody’s money or wealth than to hit them over the head or rob a bank.”

Catching a Liar

Still, some forms of deception are worth calling out, as in the case of Bernard Madoff. However, not many of us are adept at distinguishing lies from the truth, which may be the reason why fake news has gotten a strong foothold on social media.

A basic understanding of lying can help expose deceivers.

Supernatural Gets Animated in Scooby-Doo’s Crossover Episode “Scoobynatural”

2:35 AM by Runner RockyNo comments

Two beloved worlds collide in the upcoming episode of Supernatural when Sam (Jared Padalecki), Dean (Jensen Ackles) and Castiel (Misha Collins) are transported into the animated world of Scooby-Doo where they join forces with the Scooby gang to solve a ghostly mystery.

The cast of Supernatural shared their excitement about the soon-to-be iconic episode during the recent Comic-Con.

“Everyone’s super excited about the Scooby-Doo episode,” said Jensen Ackles. “I don’t want to give away too much but there is a little live action at the beginning of the episode and that gets us into Scooby-land. I am pretty stoked about it. When we finished voicing the animation, we were like ‘Let’s do another one. That was awesome!’ We’d never been so eager to work before in our lives.”

“Doing the voiceover for Scooby-Doo was awesome. It was a real ‘pinch me’ moment. Frankly, it was one of the moments when I felt – Man, I love this show. It’s so cool that we get to crazy stuff. Embedded within a Supernatural episode, we will have an entire Scooby-Doo episode where our characters are animated. We’re thrust into the Scooby-Doo universe. It’s fantastic.” Misha Collins said.

This highly-anticipated episode of Supernatural premieres on AXN 27 April, Friday at 10:40pm.
