Read MoreCaredivas: PETA’s Newest Musical Comedy-Drama
One of my goals for the new year is to view more local theater productions, and the latest musical from the Philippine Educational Theater Association (PETA) looks like a good show to start off 2011.

In any case, it turns out that Jollibee has its own TV show, and that just started its third season! Called Jollitown, this multi-awarded hit show stars the loveable Jollibee mascots – Jollibee, Hetty, Yum, Twirlie, and...
Read MoreSpartacus: Blood and Sand
I love historical movies and TV shows because they allow me to experience a time period I can only picture in my head. Added bonus if the historical movie/TV show in question is action-packed and bloody! So you can just imagine how thrilled I was when the hit TV show Spartacus: Blood and Sand finally hit Asia. Produced by Sam Raimi (the Evil Dead series, Spiderman), Robert Tapert (The...
