TV star Julia Montes’s return to television was an instant hit among viewers nationwide as her weekly action-drama series 24/7 became the number one show last Sunday (Feb. 23).
The series’ pilot episode recorded a national TV rating of 27 percent, compared to its rival show Daig Kayo ng Lola Ko (17.1 percent), according to data from Kantar Media.
Praises also poured in on social media for the series’ fast pace and the cast’s impressive portrayal.
The series’ first episode saw Mia (Julia), a security guard who died after attempting to get the vaccine that would save her dying son Xavier from the new strain of dengue.
However, a puzzling twist surprised viewers because as the all-grown up Xavier, played by Tony Labrusca, presented his invention at an event in the year 2045, time suddenly traveled back to 2020 at Mia’s home, a few days before her death.
