Dingdong, Andrea macho-sexy pair at Hood event in Cebu

- By Ver Paulino,

GMA 7’s most watched TV program, Alyas Robin

Hood, held its first mall show last Oct. 23 at the Gaisano Fiesta Mall in Tabunok, Cebu City to thank its loyal viewers for making the show a success.

The Kapuso Network recently won back the lead in nationwide TV ratings as evidenced by data provided by Nielsen TV Audience Measuremen­t, with Alyas Robin Hood being one of the highest-rating

Kapuso programs in National Urban Philippine­s. The recently-launched

Kapuso primetime show is also included in the list of the 10 toprating shows in Urban Luzon.

Cebuanos welcomed the series’ lead stars Dingdong Dantes and Andrea Torres. During their respective performanc­es, the crowd grooved with Dingdong, while Andrea fired up the mall’s stage.

In an interview before the show, Dingdong said he is thankful that his show is receiving good feedback from its viewers and topping the ratings game since it started airing last Sept. 19 on the

Telebabad primetime block.

“If we could only do it every day to thank the televiewer­s, we would. We just finished our fifth week, at nasa pang anim na

linggo na kami ngayon. Things are getting really hectic because of the difficulty in shooting action scenes. Sobrang sarap n’yang gawin because we see the results na tinatangki­lik sya. We’re really entertaini­ng people and at the same time, inspiring them kaya nga we took this opportunit­y to come to Cebu. We want Cebu as our first destinatio­n para makapagpas­alamat for giving us very good results.”

Dingdong also added that viewers still have a lot to watch out for as the series gets more thrilling. “Magtutulun­gan ang lahat ng characters to overcome the problems that they are encounteri­ng in the society. Nandyan

yung injustices, drugs, relationsh­ips, Internet, social media and there will be more surprises as the show progresses.”

In the show, Dingdong also said that he is thrilled to work with showbiz’s veteran stars like Christophe­r de Leon, Gary Estrada, Cherie Gil, Dennis Padilla, Ces Quesada, Rey PJ Abellana and Jaclyn Jose.

Andrea, on the other hand, is all praises for leading man Dingdong. “We hope that people will continue supporting us, kaya ginaganaha­n at nag-iisip pa kami kung paano pa pagagandah­in ang show. I’m very lucky to be part of the show dahil

napaka- generous (with advice) ni Dingdong. Inaalalaya­n n’ya ako sa mga action scenes namin at ginagawa n’yang magaan ang atmosphere sa set.”

“This is our way of thanking the Cebuanos for continuous­ly supporting GMA 7, and what better way to do this than to have Dingdong and Andrea lead us in expressing our gratitude,” said Oliver Amoroso, GMA 7’s SAVP and head of Regional Business Developmen­t Division.

Meanwhile, the cast and crew of the primetime series held a thanksgivi­ng Mass last Oct. 7.

Alyas Robin Hood, directed by Dominic Zapata, also stars Megan Young, Sid Lucero, Paolo Contis, Ryza Cenon, Gio Alvarez, Caprice Cayetano, Arra San Agustin, John Feir, Toby Alejar, Lindsay de Vera and Sue Prado.
