Addicted to You (2009)

Wackily Romantic

Pinoy teleseryes are known for having very dark, twisted, and thorny premises influenced by popular Mexicanovelas from the 90s.
Which is hardly my style by the way.
Therefore I was thrilled to found out that GMA7 decided to make a romcom primetime series back in 2009.
I am not sure if this was the first of its kind but all I remember was I got burned out from other over-the-top drama series that time.
So I made sure to check this show thinking to see something refreshing,
and I was never wrong,
The pilot episode got me at hello.
The feels were similar to Taiwanese dramas,
comical yet heart fluttering.

I vividly remember how I was hooked to this series when I was younger that I binged it again with my Mom,
more or less three years ago when I found a complete season on youtube.
And I will still do it again anytime!

Aside from the romance, the punchlines and comedic scenes were legitly hilarious that I still chuckled every time I think of them.
The veteran actors did a great job in that area.
Comedienne Eugene Domingo is the bomb!

Marvin and Jolina have a tested and proven chemistry that this series was a reunion project treat for their fans.
On the other hand, a lot of viewers were skeptical about the main couple Dennis and Jennica.
Probably because of the age gap? Perhaps the different celebrity status? Or maybe just because of the randomness of the pairing in this showbiz world of love teams.

But as for me, it worked out!
Like on Kdramas, the pair just make the chemistry works no matter what!
Both of them played their roles splendidly!

The story was nothing new or unique,
but when it comes to romance...
you can never go wrong with basics...
that's what I believe.

A light bordering silly romcom series that will surely entertain you in so many ways.
