GMA's New Show: Rhodora X

This 2014, GMA Network presents a teledrama that has a new concept and new take on Philippine TV Programming - Rhodora X.

Rhodora X isn't just a simple teleserye that we used to see and watch in our TV Screens. It is about a woman diagnosed with Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), which was previously known as multiple personality disorder - who will be played by Starstruck season 1 Ultimate Female Survivor Jennylyn Mercado. In an article written by columnist Rey Pumaloy in PEP.PH, Jennylyn said that her character Rhodora was able to acquire DID because of her traumatic experiences when she was a child, and so another character in her persona will appear - Roxanne. Roxanne will do the things Rhodora cannot do.

Joining Jennylyn in this new series are her former loveteam and fellow Starstruck 1 ultimate survivor Mark Herras, Starstruck 1 First Princess Yasmien Kurdi, and Mark Anthony Fernandez. Rhodora X is scheduled to air January 2014 on GMA Telebabad.

This is another exciting soap for us to see this 2014 because this is something that has not been done before on Philippine TV, plus it is a reunion for Starstruck alums Jennylyn, Mark and Yasmien. And we should also take credit on its teaser which made the show more promising. And here is the teaser of Rhodora X:


However, what should we wait for is if it will do good in the ratings game and if the Filipino audience will accept this new type of show. As for my opinion, it is something to watch out for because of its different concept. And will it make a new record in Philippines' Pop Culture? Let's wait and see once it airs on January.
