Tonight's episode was epic that I want to make an entry about Mara Clara.

I won't be writing an entry about tonight's episode. I will be writing an entry about how I feel about the show.


I can't recall how the original teleserye with Judy Ann Santos and Gladys Reyes back in 1992 went. I know people will say that the original has a better story/cast because it aired for 5 years. Imagine, 5 days a week for 5 years (for the exception of 5 Holy Weeks because back in the 90s, the only shows that air during the Holy Week are inspirational shows and TV masses)? How can it not be good, right? But I personally think that this adaptation of the original is good only because I can't remember how the original went. (Hee.)

The cast, I think, made me want to watch the teleserye every night. Sure, most of them could take more acting workshops to convince the viewers more of their worthiness to play their respective roles but for a very amateur cast, they made it work.


My most - and at the same time, least - favorite character in the show is Clara (Julia Montes). Okay, maybe not favorite "character" but favorite ACTRESS. I think Julia Montes makes a very convincing Clara because most people (on Twitter, anyway) get annoyed by her. And the smirk... THAT ANNOYING SMIRK. Never fails.


This loveteam would've been really effective if both Kathryn Bernardo and Albie Casino took more acting workshops. The lines would (sometimes) go to waste when Albie delivers them because he lacks facial expressions. Same is true with Kathryn. Sometimes it looks like she has the same facial expression for all the emotions her character could possibly have. Don't get me wrong, though, I get all tingly inside when they have their moments even if the acting's blah. High school romance is the shizzzzz.

But who do I think is the main star of the show?


HER.
She's my most favorite. Seriously. Winner siya.
