ABS-CBN scored another primetime hit on Philippine TV with its modern retelling of the classic love story between Angelo and Yna in the 2015 remake of the worldwide hit series “Pangako Sa ’Yo” (“The Promise”).
Fifteen years after its original version aired on ABS-CBN, “Pangako Sa’Yo” made a grand comeback last Monday (May 25) and hit a national TV rating of 34%, or more than double that of its rival program, which only got 15%. Data from Kantar Media also showed that it was the most watched program in the country that night.
Even before it started airing, the show’s official hashtag already became the top nationwide and worldwide topic on Twitter, garnering more than half a million tweets from 6 PM to midnight.
Aside from a stellar cast, the new “Pangako Sa’yo” also offers a top caliber production with scenes shot on different grand locations just to give its audience an unforgettable viewing experience the same way the original version did years back.
“Pangako Sa’Yo,” directed by its original directors Rory Quintos, Olivia Lamasan, and original writer Dado Lumibao, revolves around the promise of true and never-ending love from two generations--- the love story of Amor (Sta. Maria) and Eduardo (Veneracion), who were separated by Claudia (Panganiban), and the young couple brought together by destiny, Angelo (Padilla) and Yna (Bernardo).
The show’s original version is a landmark series on Philippine television, raising the bars of locally producing soap operas and being the first to give Filipino audiences a cinematic experience right at their very homes. It is also the most successfully distributed Filipino series in the global arena as it was sold in 16 countries and remains the only internationally adapted Filipino drama, with format buys by Asia and Latin America.
