Why a drama series like 'Babawiin Ko Ang Lahat' is still relevant today
GMA Network has a long tradition of creating high quality drama series that get viewers glued to their TV sets.
And the new soap, Babawiin Ko Ang Lahat, will continue that legacy of the No. 1 broadcast network offering top-notch entertainment for our loyal Kapuso.
In a media conference organized by the GMA Network Corporate Communications Department yesterday January 21, Babawiin Ko Ang Lahat executive producer Nieva S. Magpayo shared the beautiful story of their series and what it offers to televiewers.
Magpayo began by stating, “Unang-una naranasan natin 'yung pandemic di ba for last year at hanggang ngayon nandiyan pa rin siya.
“Ito 'yung moment na nagkasama-sama ang magkakapamilya sa loob ng bahay, so they have all the time to be together from morning hanggang gabi.
“Hindi rin nawala lalo na 'yung panonood nila ng telebisyon, isa siyang porma na kung saan entertainment siya, so makakapanood ka ng kung ano man nais mo panoorin: news or mga magazine shows.
“So ang serye hindi pa rin talaga siya nawawala, so ano ang ino-offer ng Babawiin Ko Ang Lahat?
“Ito ay pagpapakita na isang magandang ehemplo na ang istorya niya tungkol sa pamilya.” Magpayo said.
Another brilliant selling point of this new afternoon prime series of GMA-7 is that it will showcase the values of the Filipino family. People will likewise be amazed by the transformation of Pauline Mendoza's character from being an innocent young lady to a mature and confident woman willing to fight for her mom and dad.
She further explained, “So lalo niya pinatitindi 'yung pagkakasama-sama ng bawat isa. Nakikita natin na kung paano magmahalan ang bawat isa, kahit na medyo nagkaroon ng mga problema, so paano ire-resolve 'yung mga issues within the family na hindi magwa-watak-watak.
“So paano ipakita 'yung kung ano 'yung dapat na kultura ng isang pamilyang Pilipino, so that thing will help na maipakita namin sa audience na ito 'yung gustong ipakita noong serye.
“Although medyo mabigat siya, pero at the same time makikita nila kung ano 'yung rason kung bakit ganoon katindi noong drama ng Babawiin Ko Ang Lahat, kasi mayroon siya gustong kuhanin, dahil nawala sa kanya.
“So ito 'yung kanyang pagpapakita ng lakas, si Iris [Pauline Mendoza] bilang babae, na from young lady na nagkaroon siya ng struggle and then pinilit niya na maging isang mature na nilalang, [mature] na babae para kuhanin kung ano 'yung dapat para sa kanya at bawiin 'yung family niya mula doon sa mga kumuha noon sa kanya.”

She will also be joined by stellar actors in show business including Carmina Villarroel, John Estrada, and Tanya Garcia-Lapid, to name a few.
In her interview with the entertainment press, Pauline admitted that this project is the biggest one so far, in her young and promising career.
She shared, “I think kasi talaga dito mas na-challenge pa po talaga ako, kasi bawat eksena po, alam nilang lahat [ng cast] na kung mabigat na sa 'yung Kambal Karibal mga eksena ko po doon.
“Dito sa Babawiin Ko Ang Lahat mas mabigat pa siya and talagang sobra 'yung mga binibigay kong emosyon dito sa role na ito, sa character na ito.”
