I agree. It seems that well meaning strangers seem to get so excited for possibilities for A&M that they expect things to blossom right here, right now. Let’s give them breathing space to get to know each other without the glaring lights and without our prying eyes. Let’s not pressure A and give him elbow room to act on his own.
Personally, I think that they are on the right track. There is wisdom in taking things slow especially if we set our eyes on forever and not just for now.
M is a bit guarded but still expresses her openness to possibilities. A just needs to assure her of certain things .
It will work out. Love will always find its way home.

In the September 28 episode of Starstruck, Alden was assigned to coach the candidates on how to make screen chemistry. Somewhere during his discussion about being genuine with one’s feelings, one of the contestants asked him kung “mahal na nya si Maine”. Please take note that this episode of Startruck was taped BEFORE the September 26 episode of Kalyeserye and BEFORE he received the letter from Maine.
Syempre and sagot nya, yong dati nyang sagot. Eto:

I think there is still uncertainty on maine ‘s side .Alden more than likely is responding well to her expectations. At this point I’m just assuming that Alden should be taking this to the next level like communicating with her already outside of the teleserye .and he is not making an attempt to do that .no wonder Maine just shook her head ,seem unaffected when Alden sung and dedicated the song to her.

Maine didn’t see or hear Alden singing “God Gave Me You”, or atleast I think she was too focused writing the letter that she later gave to him.
If you try to watch the table scene, where before Tinidora puts the pitcher of water on the table, You could lip-read Maine saying “Kakanta ka ba?” while doing a mic gesture.
And then you could also lip-read Alden saying something like “Di mo narinig?” and that pretty answers the question to why didn’t have a “”””reaction””””” to Alden while he was singing.
Cheers.

It’s a gradual process, don’t rush him.

I just watched the replay of today’s ep. It sounded like Jose meant what he said if A is not true/sincere about M. He has become very protective of M that he even forgot to sound like His character Lola Tinidora. I heard the voice of Jose instead. And wally just had to rescue the scene by supporting jose but using Lola Nidora’s voice. Look at Vic’s face when the split screen showed the main hosts, parang nagulat din sa mga sinabi ng dalawa.
Sensya na if we are very sensitive about each lines and body languages in KS. Like most fans, we unconsciously search for clues wrt to these two. But I do agree with Vilo’s post. Let’s give these two, M&A, a break. They need to figure it out on their own. As fans, we must give them the space, kahit na sabik na sabik tayo na sana TNT na ito.
And in case A & M or the KS staff read this, please ignore our opinions and wishful thinking. Just do your own thing. We still love A&M for bringing kilig and positive vibes to our everyday humdrum lives. 😊

Alam ko na kung saan ang pinaghuhugutan ni Jose at Wally. May umanong nangyari daw na di kaaya-aya sa paningin ng ibang aldub fans sa SPS last Sunday with A and a former LT partner backstage. I can’t verify this info if chismis or fact, but we do know that Wally and Jose are part of SPS, so they must’ve seen/known something abt it. Thus, the threat and skit abt an ex (Bill kunwari) wanting to get back with Tinidora and how Tinidora reminds her abt Bill, her ex.
I wonder if the KS staff knew abt it too because of the choice of dubsmash songs for yaya. Hmm.
But I’m glad that Tisoy offered his pinky finger for a pinky promise to M na hindi sya sasaktan/lolokohin na halos sabay pa sila nagpinky swear. That should give clear signal abt A’s stand.

In fairness the questions ni Jose re if sure si A kay Yayadub ha…at least A answers faster now. Mas decisive na sya! Unlike before na todo iwas. I have a feeling may double meaning un and the real question is if A is sure with M.

Joey’s comment is not necessarily in the negative. If you recall, that line was first used yesterday, and because it seemed that Alden was confused as to why it Maine dubsmashed it , so he just kissed Maine through the monitor. Perhaps Joey liked the fact that he did that. Basta ako I will not stress myself anymore with every little thing that happens on KS. They seem to follow a certain pattern- low key from Monday to Wednesday, then up a notch on Thursday because of the week-sary, while Friday serves as build-up for whatever big event they have lined up for Saturday.

I disagree with your about Maine having “less kilig”.
Well, you see, back in the early days and weeks of Kalyeserye, we could all see that the kilig was always fresh and so expressive. Right?
But now, they seem more comfortable and relaxed. Meron pa ding kilig, pero very relaxed. And that’s a good thing. I like how they’re very comfortable/relaxed with eachother now while doing their dubs and fansigns.
Am I the only one who has a strong feeling in the guts that they’re already communicating in private?
It explains to why they seem so relaxed, yung parang magkakilala na sila. Yung parang they don’t see eachother as a “crush crush” where you freak out or go OA kilig when you see them. Am I the only one who is actually happy about that?
I can see the past “crush” feelings turning into something bigger and more serious. Hence, the relaxed and comfortable appraoach.

Exactly! Right?
I don’t know why there are so many people that they’re not being as expressive or super-excited when they see eachother. WAKE UP YOU FOLKS, there is surely something going on off-cam now. And also about the letter, that could’ve made a difference to how they’ve been acting since Monday, and I have NO problem with that.
Like I said, I actually really like it that they seem more relaxed now.
KalyeSerye isn’t just about the “plot” of AlDub, but you could also see the progress of how Nicomaine and Richard act around eachother.
This is exactly why we are so hooked into this phenomenon, the plot dictates the flow of the story, but it doesen’t dictate their organic and natural expressions.
It’s pretty much like seeing 50% reel and 50% real. Like I said, this is why we are all so hooked! Amirite??
And to all the overthinkers, just stop. NEVER FORGET that this is Kalyeserye, may flow parin and story. It’s time to stop over-analyzing and just enjoy the show. For sure medyo hangover lang silang lahat from Saturday! and I bet you all na Maine and Richard are probably developing a really good friendship off-cam and privately. (Well if they are really communicating off-cam. I’m sure about it)
Hope everyone starts to think the same way. Cheers!

Youre not alone. I noticed the change too and I don’t understand why people are so cynical about it! (this is coming from a very pessimistic person, btw). They seemed so comfortable and nonchalant, and it gives off the feeling that they’ve had a good grasp of what’s already happening between them. It doesn’t have to be stated. They can see it in each other’s eyes. We could see it in their smiles too. This isn’t the crush type of kilig anymore — I’d like to believe they’re taking it a notch higher. I would disagree with some hunch though, I mean communicating though DM? Naaaw. I doubt it. I believe this has something to do with the letter 🙂 Haha! I’m really dying to know what’s inside! But I’m glad they have “their secret” now.
Slowly, they’re closing the gap. Slowly, the walls are crumbling. And as for the overthinkers, I am an overthinker myself! But you all need to take a chill pill. Enjoy the show for chrissake.

I agree with you there, Pau and pejeh. The two are slowly getting past their overly kilig stage and moving towards that getting to know you stage. Although I also doubt that they have been communicating offcam because A already said in an interview that he still has opted not to get M’s number to preserve the magic and make their reactions spontaneous for KS. As for that TULOY ANG FOREVER post of A, notice it’s all caps para intense (mirroring M’s way of writing).
I have a hunch though that A wants to ask Lola for another date with M until he was cut off by the sound of the horn to signal the “freeze” scene or end of the segment. And sana eh magsalita na for real si M, hindi lang puro dubsmash. Wishful thinking on my part. Anyways, abangan na lang ang susunod na kabanata. 😊

I can’t contain this to myself. Some aldub fans have picked a bone with a former LT partner of A after allegedly noticing something between the two in last Sunday’s SPS. I don’t watch that show so I had to check who else was cast in that. It turns out there’s a segment between A and that girl who was linked to him before. Also, Wally and Jose are part of that SPS so they must be there too. Hmm. I can’t help but wonder whether these two (Wally and Jose) saw/knew something from that SPS, thus the blatant threat to A in today’s ep. And I think, somebody or M heard it or saw it too (remember she watches A’s shows dahil nabuking sya ng sister nya at si direk mike din sa mga tweets nila), thus our girl’s cryptic tweet today and the dubsmash lines “there was never an us..”, “mahal mo lang ba ako kasi kailangan mo ako?”

Hello Vilo,
Hope you’re having a grand time moderating the countless replies from your fans and well-wishers! Since you touched upon the theme of others’ opinions, I would love to read your thoughts regarding the ongoing network war and the bashings from both ends. As the two main actors—and to an extent the supporting characters and producers—are exemplified as a representation of how today’s youth should behave, do you think they should take an active role in propagating values and behavior befitting what they chose to embody?
Aldublingly yours,
Senor Pedro

Just observed na most of readers here are analyzing every move of M and A. All of us wanted them to end up to forever. Some, though, have doubts. Pero isa lang masasabi ko, kung sa dami- daming nagsadasal (isa na ako dun) na they’ll end up together, siguro naman hindi tayo bibiguin ni Lord.

Kagaya ng sinasabi ng marami dtio. Wag po sana mag over analyze or over thinking.. Kasi may script sila na sinusunod every episodes, bonus na yung kilig and mga adlib. Kasi hindi naman pwedeng laging kina A and M lang naikot ang story, di ba po? Ang MAINE event naman lagi is yung SABADO, for me walang mali or flaws sa episode, siguro yung tao lang sa barangay na kagulo pati si YAYA e nasiksik. I just hope na di sha nasaktan.
Yun nga, responsive na si A yung “sure na sure” na di na napansin. Medyo napakunot nga sha doon e. Im also thinking na theres something going on na off cam between these two. Sa point of view ko lang naman.
Wag po tayo masyado mag isip na ikareresulta lang po ng self disappointment natin. Just go with the flow. Sabay sabay tayong kiligin and take the negative doubts somewhere else. Oh ayan sa kanilang linya yan.

Hi Vilo, I just tweeted you minutes back that I’m looking forward to your review on today’s ep and now here it is. You never disappoint your readers and I’m thankful for that. 🙂 There are few points I noticed that I madly wanted to share to this ever detail oriented fans.
1. The “Threats” – This is not the first time, if you can read my previous comments on your other post that Jose/Wally dropped bombs to A. It kinda confuse me. Why? Because I thought everything was proven (intentions) last Saturday’s episode. Obviously, A was smitten by M and JOWAPAO was very happy to witnessed that. So what’s with the threat right? Also, other than “lagot ka sakin” “dapat isa lang ang winner sa puso nyo” “di mo kami kilala” what really caught my attention was this “at kung plastic pala ang minamahal, dapat isama mo sa All for Juan, Juan for all.” What alerts me was the word “plastic”? Saan galing yun diba? With that specific comment, I’m worried for M, my ate instinct all over me. 🙂
2. Is there any one else who caught Yaya dubmashing this line at was not given attention lang; “Mahal mo ba ko dahil kelangan mo ko? O kelangan mo ko dahil mahal mo ko?”. After that line, I was like. Dude? Saan galing yung hugot na yun? Are they trying to get raw emotions from A just like yesterday’s episode, yung kiniss ni A yung monitor? Bakit naman ganun?
If I was A and my feelings are true, I will get hurt by all these. Parang balik turn tables again? That the other camp don’t like me again?
Last thought, I’m assuming. Okay “assumption” that this has something to with M’s letter. Maybe she’s waiting for a concrete signal from A. But no avail. That’s why Jose/Wally was being overprotective again. Her tweet today says it all. She shared her thoughts and feelings on the letter yet she’s not getting a response. Girls are impatient when they are waiting for clues. We don’t like being hanged.
I know we are all trying to read their actions. 🙂 I know at some point we are all over thinking because we want them to end up together. We want to guide them like the normal ates and kuyas. I’m keeping my hopes high for this too as I was never a fan of an LT before.
Thank you Vilo for creating this blog and opening a platform where fans can discuss their thoughts freely.
Have a great day ahead. 🙂

GGMY was initially dedicated to his Mom. I remember his friend tweeted na naiyak sya nung ni-record nya yun before for his album kasi he remembers his Mom with that song. 🙂 So dedicating it to Maine was a big move.
With all honesty, I know was A smitten na with M. But he can’t make a move now or afraid to make a move. Kasi hindi parin sila pede magkita/ something/ or he’s still trying to weigh things. A is a very serious guy, I know he’s overthinking things as of the moment. Therefore kahit inaanounce nya, or magtext sila if they can’t see each other it will be hard for A to court her. My two cents. I don’t know what’s the real score. 🙂

Alam natin lahat na nakilala yung song “ngayon” na GGMY dahil sa Kalyeserye. And sabi nga sa intro bago kumanta si Alden ng live last Sat., na yung song na kakantahin nya ay napaka espesyal kay Alden at Yaya Dub. So, nung tinanong sya ni Sam and he said na that song means a lot to him, “Alam na..” it has something to do with Maine kung bakit sya naiyak. Idagdag pa yung lyrics ng song. “..then out of the blue.. God gave me you…” Dito palang alam na alam na natin na yung lyrics talaga ng song isa parang nagsilbing indirect message ni A para kay M. Malaki yung nabago sa buhay at career nya mula ng nabuo yung Aldub. And sa tingin ko, hnd talaga sya naiyak dahil sa Mom nya this time. It was becoz of Maine.

To be honest, Yaya Dub’s character was already overshadowed by Maine. This is Maine they are protecting.
With the lines naman, I know why alden is not answering the lines. He was too giddy to hear Maine’s voice. I remember in one interview natutuwa daw sya pag nagsasalita si M. Kasi pag nag sasalita na si M na yun, pag nag dudubmash si Yaya daw yun.

The part that i love about the recent episode are the threats. I firmly believe na may pinanghuhugutan si jose and wally. Nafeefeel ko lang and… i won’t share anymore my assumptions kasi mgkakaissue pa and they are mere ASSUMPTIONS and MIGHT BE UNNECESSARY APPREHENSIONS as an ALDUB fan. Pero tama lang naman na yung threats. Because dapat talaga walang lokohan sa totoong buhay.
But what I can say is M is a strong and smart person. She knows how to handle things and carry herself. What ARE really special about her are her genuineness and being natural on-screen. She’s a real ace in variety entertainment and hopefully, will be a great actress in the near future. And as of now kitang-kita naman na mahal din siya ng mga tao.
Kay A naman. I appreciate him being honest in all his interviews. I have been defending him all this time because I know that denying that he is in love with M or he likes M is a sign of seriousness and sincerity on his part. BUT if there are things that he needs to talk to M for the sake of their team and friendship, then he should (same way goes also to M). On that note, malapit naman na ata sila mgkausap kasi may movie. So I guess they will be able to talk soon.
Yun lang naman. I have no idea what is in the letter. Pero ang swerte ni Tisoy kasi nakatanggap siya ng letter personally from Meng. Maine knows how to express herself really well. Ang galing niya magsulat and I’m sure words were beautifully crafted in that letter. ANYONE would have been ecstatic receiving a letter from her.

There was a very subtle undertone in the “threats” Jose and Wally made, a tone that suggested that (even for a short moment) A /had/ to listen and take them seriously. I’m not going to lie, it made me a little uncomfortable to see how quickly the mood changed, but at the same time, I was relieved and happy to see how protective they were of M.
If there’s any consolation to the constant (and sometimes frustrating) back and forth between A & M, it’s this– M has a second family that’s willing to back her up and protect her no matter what.

I also loved the part in KS earlier where Wally and Jose talked to “Richard” (not Alden) and “threatened” him. Alam kong alam ni A kung gano kahalaga si M, whether for REEL or REAL. Tulad ng nasabi na ng iba, M is so well guarded these past few days. Cautious na sya. Iba na kasi yung tinatakbo ng storya. TNT na. By the way A is now looking at M, full attention na, hindi na parang sumasabay na lang sa agos ng storya. Alam nating nahuhulog na sya. Pero alam din nating alam ni M na maaring di pangmatagalan ang lovestory nila, lalo na kung hindi naman seryoso si A sa kanya. Kahit matapos ang KS, mukang di pa rin matatapos ang pagkakahook natin sa lovestory nila cause walang nakakaalam kung san ba sila hahantong. kung magtutuloy tuloy ba lovestory nila. Only God knows..and yes, what is bound to happen will find its way.

Your words brought back a memory of Maine’s last blog post, which I was lucky enough to read before her blog finally broke down from the heavy influx of visitors. It was a poem – very short and free flowing, and a bit cryptic.
In the first part of the poem, she expressed her happiness with what has been happening to her. Then, biglang kumambyo yung meaning sa last two or three lines. That’s when she realized she musn’t throw caution to the wind.
Sa bandang huli kasi napatigil sya at napaisip na posibleng mawala lng lahat. At wala naman syang kahahantungan kasi nga baka sya yung nagkamali sa pagbasa sa sitwasyon.
Poor girl! She’s a pessimist optimist kasi eh. She’s convinced na masasakatan lang silang dalawa (lahat?) sa huli kaya naisipan din nyang itigil na ang kahibangan nya (or nilang dalawa?). Hirap ksi iinterpret ung poem dahil nga sa cryptic sya.
Maine’s blog is still down. I can’t show you the poem so that you can make your own analysis. But, I think this shows how smart she is and she’s already prepared herself in case something bad happens and she ends up hurting.
Di ko napigilang mag-comment sa blog post na ‘yun. I reminded her na the future is not set in stone and that whatever miserable ending she envisioned for both of them may turn out into something wonderful. Moderated yung comments sa blog nya, so I hope nabasa nya yun bago tuluyang naging inaccessible ang site.
I think tama yung interpretation ng iba dito na on equal footing na sila. Nababalanse na nila yung private at public selves nila at marunong na silang magbasa ng mga galaw at facial expressions ng isa’t isa. Engaging in this kind of non-verbal communication is only possible after they’ve gotten to know each other na. It seems they’re operating on a deeper level than mere work colleagues now.
I don’t know whether they’ve become closer as friends or perhaps they have become more than that. What I do know is that they’re very happy with the kind of relationship they have now. Sana maging happy din tayo para sa kanila.

I have been wanting to leave a comment since Mr Vilo posted the article with regards to Alden but then didn’t really had the chance.
I have been secretly rejoicing the moment I learned that there are (a lot) of people having the same thoughts as I do with regards to M being “distant” and not being her usual kinikilig girl. The feminist in me jumps for joy as I know that should A not pursue her, M would not be left shattered. M has been “out” since last week. She is not the real her (regardless of them being in constant communication with each other). She has been obviously giving hints in her Twitter posts of her deep set emotions – I love her to bits because of her courage (despite the criticisms that many may say about her being so bold – she is being her “the girl who constantly expresses herself in social media, not pretentious, carefree).
Yes, I still believe that she still has kilig inside her, but she is now being so ever impatient with the guy – being so objective of all his moves. Yes, I agree with Mr Vilo of following what she really feels and not being influenced by people’s opinion. This is exactly what M is doing. This is the real her – you can see it in her eyes. She may act kilig but her eyes give away the real emotions inside. I have read in one of the interviews with the production staff that both them and M has a say on the songs / dubsmash to be used in KS. I really think that yesterday’s wag mo na akong landiin and today’s kaibigan mo lang were her personal choices? I am playing the villain here but I really think these lines come from her heart.
I shall leave my thoughts on Mr Vilo’s earlier article tonight.
Your thoughts on my thoughts please?

This is me trying to look at the bigger picture in all of this: The general consensus of the comments in here is that M has been more distant and cautious lately when it comes to showcasing how she feels. While it is completely possible that it is due to the fact that she has been feeling more frustrated with the lack of acknowledgement from A, I also think that there’s a lot of other factors that can be attributed to why she is acting the way she is today.
Case in point:
1) I read a comment that suggested that these two are feeling more and more comfortable with each other– This is to be expected after working with each other as long as they have. M does appreciate A’s gestures, she smiles and while it is hard to see, there’s still that subtle spark behind her eyes.
2) A does the same thing over and over again. Goodness, if I were in her shoes, I wouldn’t smile as much or as wide as I did (from the first pick-up line) after it’s done 130985 times.
2.a) Since A does the same thing over and over again, it’s easy for someone to doubt if their feelings are true or not. Just look at all the instances A did something she did not expect, all the instances that he truly did surprise her (the hat from Bicol, the letter, the 1st time he called her Meng, the pillow with her picture in it). If we (and by we I mean Us and A) want to see M’s eyes twinkle as bright as they did before, he needs to surprise her again.
SN: In addition to what he said on the Starstruck interview, A doing the same thing over and over again can be the reason why the whole “plastic” comment from Wally came about.
3) Our girl could also be really tired. It was mentioned in Ricky Lo’s interview that her schedule has been hectic.
I honestly don’t know where I’m going at this point. It’s 4 in the morning and I should be asleep.
ANYWAY, I think it’s unfair that everyone expects them to get together (at least this early on) We’re all forgetting that they do have a movie together and that there’s a high possibility that they would have a scened with each other, which would then give them a chance to properly hangout without the prying eyes of the public that want them to get married right here and now.
I think I’m going to end there. Hope I didn’t sound like a drunk.

You don’t sound drunk. I actually agree with you, especially on Point 2. If Aldub scenes would rely solely on A’s actions, the show would be SOOO boring. Kumain at nagkwentuhan/dubsmash lang siguro sila nung Saturday. And usually puro pick-up lines at pa-cute lang ang ginagawa nya (though he may be coming down with something so I’ll give him a pass for the lack of gimmick and energy today). But for not asking for a follow-up date? Ano’ng gusto niya si Lola Nidora na naman ang magreregalo sa kanya?
Don’t get me wrong. I’m not thinking of it as Richard not having interest in Maine. I’m getting more convinced as the show goes on that Alden (the actor) just isn’t very good at improv. Sure, he’s a good actor when he gets to study the script and is given direction. But he lacks the presence of mind and wit to react to the situations in KS. Kulang sya sa initiative and creativity…
Just imagine if he reacted differently in certain instances like: during the long table date, if he ran after Yaya to give back the clipboard she left, that would’ve added to the suspense…. or when he replied “Nasaan ba yung tatay mo?” when Yaya said “paalam ka muna sa tatay ko”, a new character would’ve been introduced. But he was too focused on what he was going to do (sing Wish I Maine) than to be attentive to the actions of his co-actors. Or if he would have been more assertive in his responses to the Lola’s “threats” earlier…
So let’s not be surprised if the rest of the KS becomes scripted. I don’t think we can rely on Alden for the “surprises” that would move the story along. The director has to feed it to him… All that said, I don’t think that means that they still can’t get together behind the scenes. I just know not to relate all the events that are happening in KS to what is happening in real life.

Ha! I agree with Madolldoll completely! People forget that KalyeSerye is headlined by 4 comedy improv geniuses – 3 dudes and 1 chick. They are great at improvising and reacting “on the spot”. The 4 comedians make it look easy and effortless, but in reality IT IS A VERY HARD THING TO DO. Even Alden being dragged into KalyeSerya was initial an “improv” thing. They wanted to use Alden as a prop to shake Maine out of her character. It worked beyond their expectation.
Alden is a “dramatic” actor. You can’t cry for no reason, but you can make people laugh for no reason. Different genres, different acting techniques. If Yaya Dub used to do all the work in the beginning, it was because she was more comfortable with freestyle acting and had to carry the scenes in order to make the “love” comedy plot work. Now that AlDub is official a “Love Team” rather than just a “Love Interest”, the only reason Alden is effective is because he has learned to his cues from Yaya Dub (part of the reason he seems “more interest”) She no longer has to over-act, he can now carry his part well
Case in point: Akyat Ligaw episode. While the 4 looked like they were having the time of their lives (why not? They saw so many opportunities for comedy!) You can see Alden having to really WORK to play catch up. He knew he needed to keep up with the team. And he did a great job, but I’m sure he was nervous. He didn’t want to be boring.

That is why I am such a huge fan of M’s. With barely 3 months of experience in showbiz, she is able to keep up with the veterans. It is one thing to act perfectly in a teleserye or movie after having several tries/”takes” at it, but to have to do comedy effectively on-the-fly requires another set of skills which she possesses. That is what sets her apart from her peers. Add to that the fact that she enjoys making us all laugh (even at the expense of making herself look foolish) makes me enjoy watching her so much.

That has nothing to do with his feelings for chrissake. People saying he needs to be like this, he has to be like that, AH HEAVEN KNOWS HOW SICK I AM WITH ALL THAT. I admit, I’ve been disappointed with him for a couple of times already, but didn’t you realize that like Maine, all of these is new to him?

I don’t know if your reply is for my comment. But I actually agree with you. We shouldn’t dictate how Richard Faulkerson Jr. should act or feel in real life. I never mentioned anything about his feelings anyway so I’m a little surprised with the tone of your comment.
My comment was a criticism of Alden, the character in an improv skit. I’m distinguishing between real and reel here. It is not my business to meddle into Richard’s real/personal feelings/relationship towards Maine so I’m not doing that. What I’m saying is that I think that his character (Alden) should be more assertive. You can’t expect Yaya Dub (The character – not Maine ha? see the distinction?) to be the one asking when Alden will visit her again, do you? How can we expect any progress in the relationship of the CHARACTERS and any development in the story if all he ever does is watch her perform (which is what he did today)? He didn’t react to what Yaya Dub was saying, he was just interested to hear her talk. He became a spectator today not an actor. Is it too much to ask for him to be an actor again?

Why does he keep using Maine’s name kasi? To throw off the other person? Pointless. Kung mag-“dadamoves” sya kay Maine, he should do it behind the cameras.

Para maiba naman… I was actually happy with today’s episode kasi Kalyeserye is unraveling Maine Mendoza’s talents. She not only got to sing a few lines. She also acted brilliantly in this portion of the video where she fake dubsmashed “Ohh, yes, kaibigan mo ako… kaibigan mo lang ako. And that’s all I ever was for you, Alden!” and then immediately acted surprised (not breaking character at all): https://twitter.com/arzlgarcia/status/648734223503749120
It was easy to miss because she did it so seamlessly. I hope they show a replay tomorrow so she’d be given credit for her work… Seriously, for someone who’s been in the business for less than 3 months? Amazeballs!
As for the plot, it may not have had ANY development but I like that they’re keeping us guessing where they’re going to bring this story. Alden could pull up a sign that reveals “kami na po ni Yaya” (even if it’s obviously reel and scripted) or “nag-uusap na po kami ni Meng” or “aksidenteng nagkahawakan po kami ng kamay” or any other harebrained reason that isn’t crucial to the story before another date transpires. (After all, the KS is supposed to be a work of fiction. May pagka-Choose Your Own Adventure nga lang.)
But I do get the letdown most of you felt with A’s answer in the laglagan wars. I thought he cried because he was overflowing with gratitude for Maine’s contribution to his success. Hindi pala? Or if it was that, he downplayed it to the point that it came off as though it was a meaningless act. Baka naiyak lang sya dahil sa kaba sa pagkanta ng live. Oh well.

(I just assumed it was gratitude towards Maine because he said it after saying that he’s always saying “Thank you” then he dedicated it to Meng not Yaya Dub. But I may have assumed wrong.)
I’ll just chalk it up to him being inarticulate to water down the disappointment. Hahaha.
Truth is he is the only one who really knows what he really felt and what he meant when he dedicated the song to Meng. He was kinda just forced to sing the song anyway (because it was a condition for his character to meet Yaya Dub) so I shouldn’t have expected too much from that gesture to begin with. My bad.

Maaring totoo yung observation mo na sign of gratitude lang yung harana na yun na nagpaiyak ke A.
Pero take note na ayon sa bestfriend ni A na si Nate, dalawang tao lang ang nagpaiyak ke A- mother nya at si Maine,

To put a person on the same level is a big thing.
Isa pa, God fearing si Alden,
para sa isang God fearing person who believes na God- given si Maine,

Anyway, tulad ng karamihan, di natin dapat i-pressure ang mga batang ito.

Comment lang regarding what you wrote about him being just forced to sing GGMY. Sure, it was one of the conditions given by Lola, but who’s to say if in the planning of that show, he did not request for that to be included? For the past few days before the akyat ligaw ep, I have read comments here of disappointment over A’s supposed non-acknowledgment of M’s role in the resurgence of A’s career and popularity, among other things. That he did it by dedicating the song to M is big deal for me because he wanted it to be witnessed on national television ( and by their international fans through video replays, as well)- proper acknowledgment talaga, hindi lang answer to Sam YG which can be misconstrued as just pa-kilig or fan service. So for me, there is no need to clarify his reasons for doing so- ang linaw naman eh, more so because he went off key.

Sure, there is a possibility that he may have requested it. But because I don’t have any personal knowledge of what happened BTS, I don’t want to make such baseless speculations.
As for A’s answer to Sam YG, I saw it differently as I have earlier stated (and we can agree to disagree on this).
As for the reasons being clear, all I have to do is ask you to read the comments others in this forum have written about it to prove to you that it can be interpreted several different ways. I just offered my take on it. Also, if it was clear, why would Sam even bother to ask? Again, we can agree to disagree. I am not forcing my opinions on anyone here.
As for his off-key singing, I think anyone is capable of singing off-key so I can’t really put much importance on that.
But may I also add that I realized after reading Richard’s IG post about the card that he also had a hand in M’s success. If he didn’t agree to join the KS, Maine also wouldn’t shine as bright as she does now. I guess I was disappointed because it is usually more polite to thank specific people in addition to thanking God when receiving an abundance of blessings (just like when Sugod Bahay winners only thank God without acknowledging the show or the hosts/sponsors, they come off as ingrates). But if it doesn’t bother M, why should I be disappointed? They have both contributed to each other’s success so they may deem it unnecessary to thank each other.

I’d like to give my two cents on Alden’s answer regarding the song. I think it would be sensible to think of it as an indirect way of saying Maine was special to her. Because he sang a song that meant so much to him for her. Or you could actually think that answer is as honest as it could be, because the song was dedicated to his mother. I don’t see anything wrong with it, unless I overthink it. We create problems that don’t exist when we overthink.
Sigh. I feel bad that a lot of people here are acting as if what transpired last Saturday isn’t enough of a validation. I don’t think being doubtful is unhealthy, but too much doubt will be.

Hi Pau, I think we’re not on the same page about the “validation” of his feelings (?). You see, I don’t have any opinion on RFJ’s romantic feelings toward Maine in relation to his actions in the KS.
Here’s a part of my previous post: “I have given up reading too much into the actors’ emotions/intentions for each other. Any feelings they have for each other – good or bad – are theirs to keep. I will tune in to the show even if their relationship stays reel. As much as I want them to be a real couple, it’s none of our business how they make that happen (if they ever do). I have a greater desire to see them both succeed as individuals than for them to satisfy our desire to turn Aldub into Maichard/Rimaine.”
I also mentioned in another post that I think that any advise they will need regarding matters of the heart, they can get from their family members and friends who really know them. Pampagulo lang tayo. But I do get the need to share our feels somehow so this forum is a good outlet.
As for my interpretation of Alden crying and dedicating GGMY to Meng. I thought of it as a gesture of an actor towards a colleague lang (not as a love interest). See my reply to Fairy above.

For todays episode, I can only assume that something is a bit off. When the “payos” of lola nidora and tinidora came in to the scene, I heard them as Wally Bayola and Jose Manalo giving what not to do’s and threats to A. Wally and Jose stood as a big brother for M. For the past two months, it’s not impossible for M to share her thoughts or feelings(the not too personal feelings) to the trio jowapao. She can always open up questions offcam to the trio in connection to A. Think of it as M is the youngest of the siblings asking for her elder brothers an advice. It’s always possible for that to happen.The hugot line that was personally said by M during todays KS episode included “Alden”, which then, can have a deep meaning personally to M’s emotion towards A. But as a fan for both A and M, let’s hope that the writers can think of a way to let the real feelings of this two be developed to a higher and concrete level.

Good take on this Cy. I have not yet seen the episode today, just clips of it in Twitter. Based on the comments, as per the advices given by both “kuyas”, I should say that this is just an affirmation of their behaviour during last Saturday’s episode – you would notice how Jose, not Lola Tinidora, being so vigilant of A’s actions and reactions to M (when she first met him all the way to the end of the episode). He even cannot contain his feelings (by hiding at the back of the curtains). This just manifests how deeply interested he is in how these two would be acting and reacting to each other’s presence. Jose’s stares on A channels the deeply rooted desire to read A’s reactions – yes, Jose was affirmed that A has fallen for her. But then what? Maybe, just maybe, there have been actions or no actions done and not done yet, hence the advices given to A in today’s episode. Yes, I am being very personal with these two, being so overly feminist and realist at the same time. Both of them are smart chaps guarding themselves from being torn into pieces (but in reality they already are!) I just hope that out of the glaring lights, they will still be able to find their selves again, enjoy life continue being real – not scripted beings pushed from one emotion to another.

After the ” that was all I ever was to you, Alden” line, A just responded with “more”. I mean… really? that’s it?. Oh boy, that’s kind of impolite and rude ( think so). He could have thought of a better way to respond to that.

Here’s my take on that. I have read upon some article before that A was really apprehensive when M talks. His reasons is that when she talks, she’s not Yaya Dub but Maine herself. So I guess, that must have something to do why he’s more focus on M talking than hearing what those lines mean.

Here’s my take on today’s episode. I heard different interpretations again here in the comments section and I find the discussions healthy (as there are already no assertive suggestions as before). Most of my observations were already aired here and I find it accurate. What I want to say is, let us all not forget that although last Saturday showed us something ‘real’, the KS in general, is still a skit. Let’s not focus our attention not only to A and M (for example when something deviates from our expectations, there’s already something wrong between the two), but also to the others who take part in this story, JoWaPao+ writers and us. Let’s not forget that there is a general story above everything we see. Who knows, these threats or whatevers are just techniques made by the writers to make the story more interesting and prepare us for something grandiose again. I think you will agree with me that a linear story is a boring story, and maybe that is what the writers are trying to accomplish. In the end, it still pays to just wait and see and believe in what you believe than to overthink and overanalyze. I also want to re-echo the observation of others here, that it seems there is already on-going private communication between the two. If that is the case, it would be more interesting than the uttered dialogues we heard.

One more, if there’s really something negative going on off-cam, why do you think the threat will be aired live? W and J could have said it to A in person and not on live TV as it will be open again to interpretations. Just my two cents. This might be something else.

After watching today’s episode and reading all the comments, my kilig for last Sat’s episode has now waned. When I saw M’s twitter post these past two days, I already have a feeling that something is amiss. Parang parinig kay A ung mga post nya esp the one today wherein it says people should say what they feel. To be fair to A, we can see base on Sat’s episode that he was really affected by M, but what we don’t know is the extent of his feelings. There are always two sides to a story. M could be feeling impatient because she is expecting something, any reaction or action on A’s part that is off cam. White ito namang si A is not really doing anything outside of the KS cheesy FS. Base on the dubsmash lines M used today, I have a feeling they are not communicating outside of KS. (Jose was so protective of M in this episode, ung mga threats nya were all half meant)
Here’s my take on A’s passive behavior:
1. It’s possible that he’s still unsure of his feelings for M. Yes, he is attracted to her but I have a feeling he really wants to get to know her. To quote his starstruck interview, “hindi pa kilala, mahal na”. That says a lot about what he wants. I think he really wants to start as her friend then gradually move forward to courting once he’s sure that their personalities match. Maybe that’s why he’s not in any hurry to make any move off cam since he knows malapit na rin sila magsama because they have a movie together, plus there’s the hint of a concert pa & teleserye depending on how their movie fares.
2. His priority is still his career. Things are starting to pick up in his career and he wants to focus on this. Plus he may not have the time to do a proper courtship right now. He works 7 days a week. Location wise palang, they live so far from each other! North to South ang peg nila! Here’s where the “tamang panahon” comes into play. Sometimes it’s not about meeting the right person but meeting that person during the right time. No matter how much they want to be together, if it’s not the right time for either one of them it will never work. Maybe A doesn’t want to start something na hindi nya rin kaya panindigan for now. Kaya he said this line last Sun after the akyat ligaw episode. “Naniniwala ako may forever sa tamang panahon”
3. I wanted to say baka nga talagang magaling lang sya magpakilig & he’s not serious about M, but when I think about last Sat’s episode, he seemed so smitten with M, so maybe not.
But I get what M is feeling. Such a roller coaster of emotions. Base on sat’s episode, I had very high expectations from A. Labo! Affected much! Hahahaha!

While I can’t verify this info, I’m pretty sure EB staff and SPS staff knows and word has come out. That’s why our girl, M, was quiet last Sunday on her Twitter, and thus her tweet today, and that ep. Hmm. Kaya ganon na lang ka-protective ang mga kuya/lolas kay M.

And they really want to protect M…Bakit ganun yung tweet ni M? Confused pa rin ba sya kay A? …May kinalaman ba dito si Julie na according to some sources (not confirmed though) e nagiging close na naman kay A kaya nasabi nina Jose wag lolokohin si M. But then we can only just speculate. Sa tingin ko naman may feelings na talaga si A kay M pero siguro hindi pa nya kaya ipursue agad agad si M dahil sa sobrang pagka busy nya ngayon. Sabi nya sa starstruck malalaman mong mahal mo ang isang tao pag binibigyan mo na ng oras…na yun ang wala sya ngayon so sad. Wala na nga time sa family pano pa sa love life. Wala na syang pahinga kawawa naman. Nakakairita lang ang GMA, tanggap lang ng tanggap ng trabaho para kay A na ultimo pipichuging beauty contest e si A pa ang sinasalang.

I agree as well. Let us trust that the people behind KS know what they are doing. Heck, they have been doing this for 36 years! And let us also remember that the people who make up the show treat each other like family, so putting something in the show that can possibly hurt a member is not likely. As Doctor Bee wrote, you only have to think back to what we witnessed on that epic Saturday not to relive the kilig, but to remember that real emotions were shown. I understand that much of the frustration comes from our desire to see them be together for real, to take the path we dream for them, now na. But we can’t decide for them, and we can’t dictate to them. Part of the reason why we are so in love with this pair is because we can see that they are really good people, with good heads on their shoulders, and values, strength and maturity that belie their young age. Can’t we trust them to make the decisions that are best for them, that each will not willfully do things that will hurt the other? And can we mean it when we say that we will just sit back and enjoy this fantastic treat that we have been given?

Tama! We should be balance sa lahat. Lahat tayo affected sa mga nagaganap di ba at alam kong mas concern ang marami kay Maine dahil newbie siya sa showbiz at napaka innocent niya. She’s the sister that I never have and wish to have. Kaya we are becoming overprotective sa kanya. We know how a girl fall in love and alam kong alam din ni Maine yun. As you can see, she’s also guarding her heart. She’s taking it slowly but surely. Guys, nasa tamang edad naman na si Maine para malaman niya kung anong dapat niyang gawin sa mga natatanggap niyang blessings ngayon and take note, nandyan yung JoWaPao na alam na alam nating bubugbugin si Alden kapag sinaktan si Maine. Alam kasi nila kung gaano ka shrewd ang showbiz coz the’ve been there and done numerous things (good and bad) kaya they want to keep Maine away from all those shrewd things na pwedeng makasira sa kanya. Maine is as strong as a fiber glass but still fragile when someone broke it.
Pero paano naman ung side ng guy. Siyempre biglang buhos ba naman ng biyaya sa kanya eh hindi siya magiging abala, pagod, puyat at minsan nagkakasakit pa nga. Sa palagay niyo ba magkakaroon siya ng time magreflect sa lahat ng blessings at trabaho na dumadating sa kanya? He’s also a human being guys kaya don’t ridicule him to some of our opinions kung hindi natin siya kilala ng lubos. Napatunayan naman na niya yun nung Sabado and trust me, guys like him, who cries for a girl will forever stick to that girl. We just need to wait for that right time to come. Hindi natin silang pwedeng itulak sa isa’t isa dahil gusto lang ng lahat. Hayaan natin sila mismo ang makatuklas nung nararamdaman nila sa isa’t isa. Ganoon namam ang tinuturo sa atin ng KS di ba? Always wait for the right time to come and always remember… Great things comes to thise who wait.
As fans, we should enjoy everything that were watching. Don’t go overboard sa mga napapansin natin. Guys, wag tayo maging SOCO sa lahat ng kilos nila. Sa palagay nyo ba naeenjoy yung pagoobserve sa kilos nila masyado? Of course not, enjoyin lang natin guys. Lahat naman tayo gusto natin silang magkatuluyan. Hayaan lang natin sila guys, sila dapat makadiscover nun sa sarili nila. Ika nga, Love moves in mysterious ways.
Kung pinagkita silang muli after 5 years, sa palagay niyo walang kahulugan iyon? Let’s all wait patiently and keep spreading the love. 😉

Also, think of how changed our viewing habits. They are spreading good vibes at sana ay iyon lang din ang gawin natin. 🙂

God, I’ve been saying that in my head while reading the comments. Sa sariling fandom, may mga anti-guy. Hay. Being protective of someone do not oblige us to put the other person on the bad side of the story.

Okay ..This is just my thought. With or without A, we(here) will still support M as much as possible. Kahit ano namang mangyari glamoroso parin any buhay ni M kasi ang daming nagmamahal at handang promotekta sa kanya. And as for A, well just think.. Put a little bit action of what you’re saying. Hindi yung ATM ka lang din kay M.
Sorry po pero ako’y beastmode ngayun.

I just watched the KSr eplay and in my opinion, may halong spontaneous lang yung “threat” ng mga Lola’s kay A dahil doon sa kwento ni Jose about Bill. Oo yung pagkakasabi ni Jose with conviction at talagang ramdam na ramdam, for sure half meant yun parang payo na din reel at real life. As for M’s hugot lines, parang ang take ko lang is meron lang sya konkesyon sa mga susunod na episode ng KS as in like paano papatunayan ni A sa KS na more than just friends ang nararaman nya para kay M. Hindi ako masyado nagaalala dooon sa “threat” like most comments in here kundi sa tingin ko ay parte lang talaga ng preogression ng story so let’s sit back and relaxlang aldubnation. Sabi nga ni Lola sa tamang panahon! Hintayin nalang natin ang epi bukas at abanagan kung ano ang meron sa weeksary at sa Sabado.

Well all I can say is that M is starting to show her talents one by one. First she can dubsmash, she can dance, then she can play the drums, then we learned she can sing, damn well, then yung dalawang hugot lines ni M shows she can act well. Let’s also add that she can take cues and can carry spontaneous plot without a script?! Whether magkatulyan sila ni A o hindi, malayo ang mararating ng batang to.

I agree to you with that thing. Malayo pa ang mararating ni M. All she has to do is showcase her talent more. Exposure kung baga.

Glad to know a person who shares the same thoughts as I have. Im sure that you had watched the replay of todays episode by now. I admire Jose for being a protective,thoughtful lola/co-host to M. Todays episode was a shock for all, who would have thought that despite all the love and kilig moments that happened last Saturday, Jose and Wally would give an advice very threatening like what they’ve just said. I thinks it’s either part of the script for the story to be more interesting or an honest piece of advice given to Richard F. jr. if he were to break M’s heart. Now lets not be a pessimistic person like our princess. Lets just hope all things will fall into their proper places.” What’s bound to happen will find its way.” thanks !

Ako lang ba nakapansin na tumatawa si M habang nagkukuwento si Tinidora about ex na gusto makipagbalikan? Parang pinaparinggan ni Jose si M at A. Baka gusto makipagbalikan ni ex kay M? Kaya siguro inaalam na ni M kung ano ba talaga feelings ni A dahil si EX naghihintay?

1. First watched the last ep reaction: Gasp. Something feels off. Lahat may pinaghuhugutan. Good for him. A dose of his own meds. Ano na patutunguhan ng show may veiled antagonism na between the actors?
2. Second viewing reaction: Talagang may hugot e. Nakakasakit. Bakit napapailing si Joey?
3. Third viewing: *Objective viewing *Suspended judgment. Haha. Nakakatawa dynamics ng mga character. Binanatan nila si A sa una 3 against 1 gumanti siya sa kanila sa huli binitin silang tatlo (at lahat ng taong bayan). Pero may emotions na involved. If Maine is hurting, uncalled for iyong ginawa nila from Alden’s end. May hurt din siya.He is trying to brush off mga patutsada nilang tatlo and tried to connect with Yaya. Ang galing gumawa ng spontaneous kuwento ni Jose. Benta. Si Maine magaling talaga sa improv at spontaneous acting. Level the playing field. Start from the top. To break the ice and magbonding sila as talagang tropa lumabas sana sila as a group. Pwede kasi sila sa sitcom.

before i hit the haysack, i want to throw my thoughts here so i can sleep soundly tonight. i’ve read all the comments and i am very disappointed. honestly, di pa ba kayo natuto sa progress ng KS? complain, complain, all we do is complain. we read too much between the lines when there’s nothing to read, really! i think the threat was infact a prop used to carry on with the story. especially with the bill thing. diba there’s a conflict between bill and tinidora? na parang nanghihinayang sya that they had to end their relationship? at sabi pa nya, alden and yaya dub reminded him of how it was before when her and bill were still together? and the “hugot lines” naman is to showcase maine’s acting at diba unti-unti na nilang nirreveal yung voice nya? (by the way she delivered those hugot lines, omg, amazing!!!) kung lalagyan nyo nalang din ng malisya, sana pati yung chosen song ni maine, binigyan nyo na rin ng kahulugan? o, ano pa? susmarya! maawa naman kayo kay alden, hindi pa ba sapat yung nangyari nung sabado? please lang. okay, wait. kakalma lang ako… alam nyo, sa ginagawa nyong pag over think, maagang majjinx yung OTP natin, promise. less than three months palang, ganto na tayo, alalahanin po natin, mag sshot ja sila ng movie, plus endorsements, and i’m sure magkaka mallshow yang dalawang yan, di rin malabong magka concert din, and let’s not forget the teleserye. come on, mga brad. ang haba na nang narating natin, ngayon pa ba tayo magdududa lalo na’t mas aggressive na ang manok natin? seriously?
sorry kung medyo nawawala ako sa punto, medyo sleepy na kase. 😝 all i’m trying to say is give the poor boy a chance to grasp his feelings. wag natin sya pangunahan. please lang. and enjoyin nalang natin ang KS. ano pa’t pinapangaralan tayo ni lola na “ang lahat ay nasa tamang panahon” kung tayo rin mismo hindi makapag hintay, diba? ayun lang. aldub you all!
i thank God that M ended up being paired with A. not only is he God fearing, a gentleman, but rest assured, he will not take advantage of her in any circumstances and will protect her at all cost. back then, he firmly said to her in one of his FS, “ako bahala sayo kahit anong mangyari.” and i trust his words. you all should too.

I’ll put my faith in A, but I do appreciate the kuyas/lolas protectiveness over M, so that A or rather Richard knows he should toe the line.
And as I’ve mentioned somewhere in my previous comment here, I think yung naudlot nyang sasabihin sana kay lola today was to ask for another date with M. Sana. Sabi nga niya “TULOY ANG FOREVER!” Caps lock para intense just like how M writes her posts.
So, abangan na lang ang susunod na kabanata. 😊

i’ve seen your posts and i have to admit, that’s quite brave of you, defending A all the way. poor guy’s being judged by everyone because of things he can’t control. naaawa na ako dun sa bata. i mean, okay, people are entitled to have their own opinions pero the the extent of questioning one’s intentions by means of over thinking? that is so uncalled for. :c I have doubted A quite a few times, but last saturday answered all my questions. question marks were replaced by wild exclamation points. enough is enough. and it’s still too early for them to reach the stage of commitment. i believe that for now, both are at the phase where they mutually understand eachother.
ps. the episode today was so ASFFGHJKL! the titigans, the smiles, not to mention the taas ng kilay. ugh! these precious moments are the ones we should be focusing on, people!

I totally agree w/ you. they are all blaming Alden as if they really know what’s happening really between the two. please lang separate the reel show to the real score between them. Alden is a full bodied gentleman and I refused to accept he will go that low as what others here is implying. isip2 din kong may time. and as far as I know M doesn’t say she loves A na for real? so, I can’t see the used of misguided over protectiveness that others here feel. unang-una iba ang KS show sa usapan ng personal feelings. don’t confused yourself. that’s all!

The episode today is a sneak peek of what’s to come, focusing on Maine’s talents, her singing ability (nice vocals) and great delivery of “hugot lines” which she did so effectively. When we over analyze, we miss out on what it’s really trying to convey. They are giving us a glimpse of a superstar in the making and that’s all the episode is about, nothing too serious, no “patama” whatsoever.

I totally agree w/ u Elyssa.. if u notice since last sunday maaliwalas ang aura ni Alden (during SPS) at ni Maine at parang comfortable n sila sa isa’t isa.. siguro dahil yun sa content nung letter.. very responsive n si Alden sa mga FS ni Maine at ang inaabangan nya palagi ay yung BIGLAANG PAGSASALITA ni Maine kaya di na nya npapansin kung ano man ang content nung dubmash ni Maine.. i remember may tweet si joey about the upcoming concert nitong dalawa.. at yun siguro ang reason medyo madalas at marami ng talk ngaun si Maine
