REEL DEAL: Parental Guidance SPOTLIGHT

Old school meets new school parenting when comedy legends Billy Crystal and Bette Midler play Artie and Diane Decker, who are called in by their daughter Alice (Marisa Tomei) to help care for their three grandkids. When their parenting methods collide, the once-orderly household gets out of control.

From family filmmaker Andy Fickman (best known for “The Game Plan,” “You Again,” She’s the Man” and “Race To Witch Mountain”), “Parental Guidance” spins into a heartwarming chaos when Alice calls on her parents to help watch her kids when she needs to leave town for work.  When left with their grandkids, Artie and Diane employ unexpected tactics which means using some new parenting style to help teach their grandkids how to act and behave like kids.

Written by Billy Crystal, the movie is inspired from his own experience when their granddaughters stayed with them for five days when their kids went away.  “And on the sixth day, I rested.  I came to the office and I said, ‘Okay, here’s the movie: it’s old school/new school.  It’s trying to follow all the rules that my kids had about how to take care of the girls.  And it could really be a movie for everybody; a family movie that could be really funny, which it is, and very touching, and have lessons learned.  It took a long time to get this made, but here we are,” Crystal shares.

"Pepito Manaloto: Ang Tunay Na Kuwento" pilots this Sunday


The sequel of the reality-sitcom "Pepito Manaloto" will air its pilot episode on Sunday night, September 16 on GMA-7.

"Pepito Manaloto: Ang Tunay na Kuwento" picks up from that point in the first season's story wherein the lead character Pepito (portrayed by Michael V) wins the jackpot in a lottery.  After his luck changed his and his family's life from rags to riches, a television network executive approaches Pepito and comes up with the idea of retelling their story in a TV series.  However, Pepito won't like the treatment of the TV show.  He thinks that much of the story has been played up or exaggerated.  He wanted a more realistic portrayal of his family's story. The TV executive will draw up an alternative proposal: the TV show will be redone but this time, it will be a reality show.  The cameras will be documenting Pepito and his family's every day life.
