I had hopes for Munting Heredera in becoming a signature family drama for GMA. But it’s instead been a mostly heavy (with some lighthearted moments thanks to the children) drama with an older target audience.
This year, GMA had fantasy series Dwarfina and Captain Barbell in primetime, both geared for families, but the former more worthwhile than the latter. However, neither was very memorable.
But maybe, GMA Network’s newest primetime series Iglot can be that breakout family hit for them. ABS-CBN currently has 100 Days to Heaven, which certainly is greatly boosted by the talent of Xyriel Manabat.
