Eva Fonda

Was able catch Eva Fonda last night. Got to say I’m no Christine Reyes fan but this is her shining moment. The character fits her well. But found it interesting that the probinsyana girls are no longer wearing manang shirts and skirts, but revealing outfits. WHOA!

The show is like a late 1980s - 1990s teleseryes with the poor being made api by the rich. Only this time, there’s sex, sex, and even more sex involved. Just enough drama, but too much sex. I can’t get over it, really. THERE’S TOO MUCH SEX.

Baron Geisler is once again stereotyped as a manyakis/rapist, which must not be adding much to his already tainted reputation. Hazel Mendoza does well as the not so innocent bestfriend. Joross Gamboa is blah. The show could do without him. By the way, didn’t Joross and Hazel play siblings in another teleserye??? That’s weird. Jason Abalos is also another blah. I see he’s developed some muscles. He fits the probinsyano role well, but adds nothing more to it.

Al Tantay’s character is creepy. Jean Saburit has definite potential to be the next teleserye villain we love to hate. More pa please. On the other hand, Mark Gil is underwhelmingly underutilized. Sayang ang talent.

For sexeh teleserye time, do watch Eva Fonda, right after Betty La Fea on ABS-CBN.
