After 17 years, Barangay Love Stories, one of the radio drama programs on GMA Radio’s flagship network, Barangay LS, comes to television on September 12, 2026.
Hosted by Papa Dudut, the leading radio drama and podcast will take a brighter step beyond FM radio as the show brings its well-loved stories to life through a visually compelling, emotionally resonant drama format for television screens and mobile devices.
Nasa TV na ang forever – that is what Barangay Love Stories has promised: to adapt the leading radio show and podcast into a TV series that brings the stories and emotions to life that audiences have imagined for years.
Ang nagpapa-excite sa akin is knowing na hindi na mag-i-imagine ‘yung mga listeners para maramdaman nila ‘yung mga kwento ng Barangay Love Stories. Kasi meron nang visual aid. Makikita mo na ‘yung emosyon ng mga kwento natin dahil may mga artista na gaganap sa Barangay Love Stories TV adaptation, Papa Dudut shared about the TV adaptation for his radio drama.
Starting on September 12, 2026, at 16:00, viewers will be captivated by these first three episodes of Barangay Love Stories on GMA, featuring Shuvee Etrata, Anthony Constantino, Sofia Pablo, I̱igo Jose, Ashley Sarmiento, and Rave Victoria Рall of whom are known as ex-housemates of Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Collab Editions 1.0 and 2.0 (excluding Anthony).
Yung dating sound effects lang to imagine the drama scenes, ngayon may kulay na, may ngiti na, may luha na na makikita ninyo sa TV, Papa Dudut added.
Meanwhile, on the following day (September 13, 2026), viewers will also experience a talk show focusing on the top trending topics, hottest issues, and viral content, hosted by a fresh, unexpected trio of Ashley Rivera, Jhai Ho, and Baus Rufo, in Kalurks, airing on GMA Network’s sister channel, GTV.
The hosts of the talk show come from their own backgrounds: radio and television presenter Jhai Ho as the Showbiz Kalurker, focusing on all the fresh and hot issues; Baus Rufo as the SocMed Kalurker, staying in the loop on viral content and trending topics on the internet; and Ashley Rivera as the Filter Kalurker, taking on her honest take on the hottest happenings.
The show will also invite several personalities in entertainment and digital media to share their stories and insights with their audiences.
Kalurks will begin the fun chikahan on September 13, 2026, at 20:30, via GTV.
