GMA Network never fails to bring happier weekends to every Kapuso as it launches the first comedy anthology in the country with Dear Uge today after Sunday Pinasaya.
Hosted by no less than award-winning comedienne/actress Eugene Domingo, she says she is very thrilled about her latest show in the Kapuso Network. She is very happy and proud of the show’s concept. It’s one-of-a kind, amusing and will also bring “kilig” to Sunday afternoon TV viewers.
“I believe it’s pioneering, this type of TV show. This time mas light ang topic and most definitely, funny side ng love ang ipapakita, so I think eto talaga yung pinakamasarap panoorin lalo na pag weekends kasi nagpapahinga ang mga tao. Perfect after Sunday Pinasaya, tuloy tuloy yung katatawanan sa GMA.”
In Dear Uge, the stories, characters and plot twists will be entertaining. Even Eugene’s hosting and narration will be comical and have an identity of its own. In the show, she is Urbana Genoveva Esperanza, a ‘variety store’ owner who hosts a web show called Dear Uge. She will also have a charming sidekick played by Divine Grace Aucina, a theater actress from PETA.
Making this show unique and exciting are Eugene’s cameo roles in each episode. Aside from the talented cast in lead roles, she will play various interesting characters that will have home viewers laughing out loud with her comedic antics and hilarious performances.
“Habang may binabasa akongsulat, lumalabas din ako sa kwento, taking up different roles every week. Ito rin yung unang unang nagustuhan ko sa concept, meron din akong iba’tibang characters every episode, and I’ll be able to act with different actors na gustong-gusto ko, and also different directors in very light, nakakaaliw na episodes. Kaya I’m very, very excited,” adds Eugene.
Prepare to laugh and fall in love with the heart-warming and funny stories in Dear Uge beginning today after Sunday Pinasaya on GMA 7.
