After the success of Barbie Forteza and Andre Paras’ tandem in the recently concluded top-rating afternoon series The Half Sisters, their onscreen love team returns as Maria Rosario “Maru” Carreon and Bryan Ford in That’s My Amboy.
This is GMA Network’s newest primetime offering beginning January 25 on its flagship international channel, GMA Pinoy TV.
That’s My Amboy is a light, romantic-comedy series that will surely pull the heartstrings of viewers and make them feel good and ‘kilig’ every night.
