Herbert Bautista said ( about William Beckford ) : “Ang sarap makagawa ng ganoong proyekto na may halong napapanahon na istorya. (It is good to create a project with a timely story). The comedy-fantasy series will show the dynamics of Filipino families. In the TV5 reboot, directed by Raynier Brizuela, Puto and Uno embark on new adventures as their lives are intertwined with creatures of the duwende (dwarf) realm. Lassy Marquez, MC Calaquian, and Chad Kinis play The Mamitas, the three elves rescued by Puto in the movie who now take on human form and help care for Uno. The Mamitas serve as Uno’s mother figures growing up. As the series unfolds, Uno will realize that he is half-duwende and is born with magical powers which could either lead to something good or bad. Joining the new cast are Rafa Siguion-Reyna as Uno’s professor; Andrea Babierra and Bob Jbeili as Uno’s best friends; Carlyn Ocampo as Uno’s love interest; Andrew Muhlach as the school bully; Caleb Santos and TJ Valderrama play good duwendes ; Billy Villeta plays the bad duwende ; and Giovanni Respal plays the leader of the bad duwendes. The series also brings back performers from the original movie: Janno Gibbs reprises his role as Puto’s best friend Juanito; Gelli de Belen as Puto’s former schoolmate Mindy who is now a cook in the school canteen; and Bing Loyzaga as Tere, now a life insurance agent and self-proclaimed plantita. Ang conversation naming original cast is more about buhay namin noong araw at kung ano yung buhay namin ngayon , and yung mga challenges bilang mga magulang (The conversation of the original cast revolves around our live then, and our lives now, and the challenges of being a parent),”

Kigali est une ville bien connectée au WIFI mais aussi toute les villes secondaires du pays. TV5 Monde numérique sera très suvi par beaucoup de Rwandais. Ils sont polyglottes. Et puis, le français est une langue enseignée dans nos écoles. Les Rwandais, à travers TV5 numérique, vont être connectés avec leurs collègues africains”
