RANDY SANTIAGO wants to direct younger brother Raymart in a sitcom now that he’s back with the Kapuso station. Raymart used to have a hit sitcom with GMA, “Kool Ka Lang”, with Joey Marquez and Bonel Balingit, that run from 1998 to 2003. Since then, he’s been doing nothing but dramas in primetime and afternoon soaps.
“Magaling si Raymart mag-comedy at ngayong binabalik ang sitcoms sa GMA, it’d be nice for him to do another comedy show,” says Randy. “Nag-iisip na nga kami ng maganda at naiibang format para sa kanya.”
Randy used to direct only for ABS-CBN so he’s glad to be given the chance to do a show for GMA. “Nagulat ako nang tawagan nila ako and offered ‘A1 Ko Sa’yo’. Maganda yung concept at puro magagaling ang members ng cast so enjoy akong gawin ito, lalo na’t kasama pa namin ang Cannes best actress na si Jaclyn Jose who’s really very good not only in drama but also in comedy. Medyo naughty itong show namin but I will make sure we'll come up with wholesome episodes na hindi magkakaproblema sa MTRCB.”
It’s like a homecoming for him at GMA-7. “Kasi dito naman talaga ako nagsimula noong araw sa ‘Lunch Date’ in the 80s, which ran for seven years. Tapos naging host din ako ng show na ipinalit dito, ‘Salo-Salo Together’. Pero ngayon pa lang ako magwo-work for them as director at nagpapasalamat ako sa tiwalang ibinigay nila sa akin.”
“A1 Ko Sa’yo” will start airing tonight at GMA Telebabad after “Juan Happy Love Story”. Don’t miss the rollicking pilot episode with Lovi Poe as the special guest star.
