Maris Racal, 'Pinoy Big Brother' housemates compose song about duos
Maris Racal and the housemates of "Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition" had a great time bonding together. Monday's episode showed Maris' brief stay inside Bahay ni Kuya as a house guest, where she got to know the housemates. One of the tasks the housemates completed with the Kapamilya star was composing a song that would reflect their story and experiences as duos. After a collaborative brainstorming session, they successfully created a song titled "Awit ng Dalawa." They later performed it together, with Maris accompanying them on the guitar. Maris is the latest in the long list of celebrity house guests this season, which includes Heart Evangelista, Barbie Forteza, and Gerald Anderson.

'Sang'gre' delivers epic pilot episode with dragon, giant, prophecy, and a world of ice
"Sang'gre" delivered a pilot episode of epic proportions as we return to the world of "Encantadia!" The opening scene eased us in with the familiar: a flashback to Pirena, Amihan, Alena, and Danaya, the four Sang'gres we know and love. They were all riding horses towards Lireo, but the first surprise of the episode soon appeared: a dragon with a well-made CGI that made it look straight out of "House of the Dragon." The four Sang'gres decided to use the powers of the gems of fire, air, water and earth to slay the creature, which poses a threat to their kingdom. Like in the magical girl genre, their armors flashed with the power of their elements before they attacked the dragon and ultimately vanquished it. After the dragon, another magical creature appeared: a giant named Arsus, who had been hunting the people of Mine-a-ve and ruling the land of ice with terror. This was where Mitena, the main antagonist of the series, made her entrance. She challenged Arsus to a fight and single-handedly won using her unique sword. After killing the giant, Mitena declared herself the Kera or queen of Mine-a-ve. The people then began to kneel one by one to accept her as their ruler. Before the episode ended, Bathalumang Cassiopeia appeared before Pirena, Danaya, and Alena at the present time. She warned them of an ominous dream that she had: someone from another land will bring her death. The opening billboard of "Sang'gre" was also a thing of beauty, with a nod to the "Game of Thrones" opening. Landscapes and castles are shown, paired with the somber sound of cellos before Julie Anne San Jose comes in with vocals. It all comes together with the vocals of Bayang Barrios from the original theme of the series. The pilot episode was indeed worth the long wait for the "Encantadia" spinoff, which took two years to produce. "Sang'gre" airs weekdays on GMA Prime at 8 p.m. after "24 Oras." The legend continues. ????
