Are you still undecided on whom to vote for in the coming elections? Are the candidates’ campaign promises overwhelming you?
The latest show of GMA News and Public Affairs may be able to help. It is called Naku, Boss Ko!
A first on Philippine television, Naku, Boss Ko! mixes the sarcasm of a political satire and the feel-good vibes of a romantic comedy The eight-part poli-romcom series will try to expose the absurdity and hypocrisy of some of the campaign strategies employed by some, if not most politicians today.
Naku, Boss Ko! sees the much-awaited on-screen reunion of one of the hottest love teams today—GabRu or Gabbi Garcia and Ruru Madrid.
Ruru is Jon G, the reluctant mayoral candidate of the Town of Malaya. Jon G may sometimes be mischievous and a brat, but he has good intentions for his town. Unfortunately, his campaign is run by his corrupt father, a certified ‘trapo’ or traditional politician.
Gabbi is Che, a political activist who has deep-seated hatred for ‘trapos’. Ironically, she falls for the charms of the dashing and mischievously handsome Jon G, the son of a ‘trapo’.
Joining the fray are Leo Martinez as the power-hungry OMG, Jon G’s father, and Tessie Tomas as Miss F, the shrewd and extremely politically savvy campaign manager and spin doctor.
As part of the Kapuso Network’s election advocacy campaign, Naku, Boss Ko! seeks to show that Philippine politics is no laughing matter and it hopes to help voters choose wisely on election day.
Naku, Boss Ko! is directed by the highly acclaimed director of Ang Babae sa Septic Tank, Marlon Rivera, written by Palanca hall of famer Rody Vera and multi-awarded indie writer-director Zig Dulay, from a concept by Patty Gutierrez. It airs Monday to Thursdays, 10:15 p.m. on GMA Telebabad, beginning tonight.
