Team A is sure to tickle viewers’ funny bones with a hilarious mix of characters bantering on hysterical family issues and more. This “fun-serye” revolves around the loving Ambida family of Ian (Jerald Napoles), Janet (Kim Molina), and their only child Yeye (Gianna Iguiron) whose happy and simple lives are complicated by the persistent intrusions of Janet’s mother, Violeta Bagsic (Yayo Aguila), and Ian’s father (Anjo Yllana), Arman Ambida, as they constantly clash due to their differing lifestyles and financial circumstances.

With the comic tandem of Jerald and Kim playing the role of husband and wife, it is interesting to see how they will make every scene even more uproarious with their rib-tickling punchlines and witty dialogues. The series will definitely bring to light the tricky dynamics of extended families while imparting valuable lessons that viewers can relate to their own family situations.

What can the Ambida couple do when their respective parents are constantly bickering? With Violeta constantly rubbing it in that she does not approve of Ian as her daughter’s husband, and Arman always firing back at Violeta for her offensive tirades against his son, how can Ian and Janet reconcile everyone and get them all on the same side as Team Ambida or Team A?

Watch how Jerald, Kim, Yayo, and Anjo bring their A-game to this new comedy series for the entire family. Also joining the Team A cast are Gene Padilla as Mon Bagsic, Violeta’s husband and Janet’s father; Cindy Miranda as Rochelle, the beauty-queen YouTuber sister of Janet; Marc Acueza as Estong, Rochelle’s innocent-looking but rich husband; Ethan David as Jaime Sobel, Ian’s over-confident co-driver; and Ashtine Olviga as Diane, Janet’s youngest sister.

Get to know the Ambida clan and prepare to laugh out loud at their riotous antics as Team A premieres this March 18, 9:30pm on TV5, with catch-up airings on Sari Sari Channel (Available on Cignal Ch. 3) every Sunday, 9:00 pm starting on March 19.

TV5 will be airing a mini-series depicting the life of Glenda Victorio, founder and CEO of Brilliant Skin Essentials, one of the country’s most successful Pinoy beauty brands.

Actress-singer Arci Muñoz will be portraying the inspiring 25-year-old CEO in The Brilliant Life, a mini-series depicting the rags-to-riches story of a young mother from Morong, Rizal who beat the odds and reached for her dreams until she became a young millionaire entrepreneur.

This is the first time for Glenda Victorio to go public with her life story. Through The Brilliant Life, she will share not just her stories of struggles and hardships but also her determination, passion, and faith in God that helped her in overcoming all her life trials. “Grabe talaga ang pinagdaanan ko simula pagkabata. Kaya noong nagkwe-kwento ako sa writer nitong mini-series, hindi ko mapigilang maiyak. Marami talagang dapat abangan dito sa The Brilliant Life,” Glenda shared.

She added that Arci did perfectly well in portraying her in the series and she is infact the first choice for the role since most people always say that she looks like Arci. Arci on the other hand said that she learned a lot from Glenda and that her story, as young as she is, is indeed very inspiring because she has experienced a lot of ups and downs in her life and she kept moving forward. Glenda said that the people who works for her is her moving force because she knows that she is not only working for herself but a lot of people are counting on her. 

JM De Guzman is also part of this heart-warming story who will play as "Mac", husband of Arci in The Brilliant Life.

Witness Glenda’s inspiring journey in The Brilliant Life, premiering this December 17, every Saturday on TV5.
