WHAT do you get when you bring a promdi widower dad, his pasosyal unica hija, and their constant disagreements together in one posh condo unit?
Beginning October 13, GMA fans are in for more exciting and hilarious nights as the network debuts its newest sitcom, Daddy’s Gurl.
Bringing in the laughs is the no-fail comedic duo of Vic Sotto and Maine Mendoza as Barak and Visitacion “Stacy” Otogan. Barak is a devoted husband and the owner of Otogan Farm in Batangas. Visitacion, on the other hand, is a loving daughter. When she moved to Manila, she changed her name to Stacy. She becomes a trendsetter slash influencer slash digital maven whose daily goal is to trend on social media.
Adding fun to the sitcom is Wally Bayola as Marikit Otogan, the wife of Barak. When she passed away, her soul didn’t really leave and she is able to talk only to Barak through a portrait she left behind.
Also showcasing his comedic chops is Oyo Sotto as Lance Saavedra, Stacy’s strict boss. He’s a smooth talker and thinks very highly of himself.
Joining them are other characters that will add color to their everyday lives: Angelika de la Cruz as Aling Oprah, the single and always available neighbor of Stacy and Barak who has a crush on him; Chamyto as himself, Oprah’s assistant; Benjie Paras as Tomas/Tom, Barak’s kind
but gullible helper who comes to Manila with him; Jelson Bay as Gerardo/Gerry, Barak’s right-hand man who may be small but thinks big; Chichirita as Beauty, Stacy’s friend and officemate; and Kevin Santos as Daboy, Stacy’s handsome and sophisticated but not-so-manly friend.
Under the helm of Chris Martinez and the production of M-Zet Productions, Daddy’s Gurl airs every Saturday night after Pepito Manaloto on GMA.
