“It’s a nice breather. I even surprise myself dito sa show. Ang sarap having a solid cast and a director na fun. ‘Pag nakakapagpatawa ka o nakakapagbigay ng ligaya sa paligid mo it’s a nice feeling pabalik sa ‘yo,” said Piolo shared during the My Papa Pi mediacon last February 12.

The new show revolves around the lives of Pipoy (Piolo), a single dad who wants a better future for his daughter; his twin brother Popoy (Pepe), a popular tumbong maker and owner of “One More Tumbong;” and Tere (Pia), a woman with a golden heart who happens to be Popoy’s one great love but has feelings for Pipoy. Director Cathy Garcia-Molina said getting the chance to work with Piolo again was one of the reasons she had to accept the project.

“I really want to work with Piolo kasi ang huli namin Lobo pa, dekada na ‘yun. So na-miss ko na siya…Pangalawa, it is something new to me. Sitcom na naging sweetcom. Tapos na-cutean ako sa idea na kambal si Pepe at Piolo. Natuwa ako doon tapos meron pang Queen P dito. Itong set na ’to extra saya. Dala na rin siguro na sweetcom siya so alam naming lahat na kami ay dapat magagaan lang, patawa lang lahat,” she said.
