'PEPITO MANALOTO' CONCEPT CREATOR, CREATIVE DIRECTOR & ACTOR MICHAEL V
MICHAEL V, as concept creator, creative director and lead actor of the hit sitcom, “Pepito Manaloto”, now comes up with another inventive episode of the show called “Kuwento, Kuwento!” It’s a new storytelling format where Kapuso viewers are treated to several mini-stories in one episode, highlighting the wacky and entertaining situations in the life of each beloved character featured in it.
This Saturday, the first mini-story will focus on Pepito (Michael V.) as he purchases an expensive new gaming speaker system online without telling his wife Elsa (Manilyn Reynes).
Lucky for him, Elsa is busy scheduling a manicure-pedicure session with Deedee (Jessa Zaragoza). Chito (Jake Vargas) finds out about the new gadgets and wants to try it out with Pepito. Will Elsa discover Pepito’s new guilty pleasure?
The second mini-story is about Patrick (John Feir) and Robert (Arthur Solinap) who are supposed to be picking up Baby (Mosang) from the store.
Patrick starts to feel hungry and suggests that they grab a bite first. From fishball to corn on the cob, Robert rejects all of Patrick’s suggestions because he’s on a diet. How long will Baby have to wait for them to fetch her?
And in the third mini-story, Tere (Cherry Malvar) invites Vincent (Tony Lopena) to join the dance contest in their upcoming online office party, where the only rule is to base their steps on viral TikTok videos.
Vincent declines even after hearing that Pepito will give a cash prize of P20,000 to the winner. After Tere sells some of her beauty products to Deedee, she can’t seem to find Vincent. Where could he be and what could he be up to?
“It’s an innovative way of presenting our show,” says MIchael V. “Para hindi magsawa ang viewers. Parang three stories in one ito and all the characters are given the chance to shine on their own.
"Sure akong magugustuhan nyo. Get ready to laugh out loud this Saturday in the brand new episode of “Pepito Manaloto: Kuwento, Kuwento!” after “24 Oras Weekend” on GMA-7.”
