Imagine to meet an eye candy in the middle of a robbery and the protagonists to be embroiled in high stakes situation that tackle injustice and criminality. This is the premise of Kapamilya Channel’s latest drama romantic comedy television series 2 Good 2 Be True.
The Mae Cruz-Alviar helmed show features premier loveteam Kathniel, composed of Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla. Kathryn is nurse Allison “Ali” Fajardo whose mantra is ‘work if life’, moonlights as a private nurse to the wealthy before or after her hospital duty. Daniel is car mechanic with ambitions to be a lawyer Elorder “Eloy” Borja.
Ali and Eloy’s meet cute happens in an upscale hotel where they think the worst of each other without even officially meeting. But true to Filipino teleserye tropes, both are model children who give their best for their family’s sakes. Of course, the supportive parents, workmates, and barkada are also present to cheer the protagonists on as they hurdle their difficulties, doubt their abilities, or need banter partners.
The stand out scenes for me are when Ali sneezes or is about to sneeze due to Eloy’s masangsang na amoy. Also props to Ali for her line, ‘may babaeng naagrabyado. Gusto ko lang tumulong’.”
Below are the hugot lines from Kapamilya Channel’s 2 Good 2 Be True episodes 1 and 2.
2 Good 2 Be True is also available on Netflix, A2Z, TV5, and The Filipino Channel (TFC).
