Let's Go Barkada

I grew up during the times of TGIS and Gimik, and I must admit that those two shows revolutionized my generation. Fast forward to the present time, and ABS-CBN is again reviving the genre with Let's Go, this time as a situational comedy.

ABOUT THE SHOW

College life couldn't get any wackier for a student living in a dorm. Make that a co-ed living space and watch things go topsy-turvy. ABS-CBN's newest youth oriented show LET'S GO will take you on a rollercoaster ride called college, its ups, downs and the thrilling, nerve wracking loops in between. But the ride wouldn't be as much fun without a crazy bunch of friends to experience it with.

Saturday afternoons wouldn't be the same with your new kabarkadas on the block. Meet the crazy bunch of Let's Go: Alex, the kikay trendsetter who comes from a family with a cosmetics empire, then there's her equally kikay and marathon dieter best friend Trish; Juniper, the Political Science major and outspoken promdi; Crush ng Bayan Dennis, the closet gay with a policeman father; Musically inclined Norman, who's forced to take up Mechanical Engineering by his parents; The overstaying Zap, who's very clever with money except with Mike, the stingy, ‘raketero' and jack of all trades of the gang; Maffy, the teleserye and showbiz fanatic; Sweet Charie who believes in love at first sight; Bob the jock, with sports, girls and nothing else on his mind; Mystery girl Bangs, the punk rocker chick who hides her face behind thick bangs and Badgie, the ever feared bully of the dorm, who scares everyone without even uttering a word.

Add to that chaos are their equally zany professors, mystified parents and silly classmates, Let's Go becomes one big fun house. Follow the gang's adventures and misadventures while they try to adapt to the dorm habitat and survive college life.

Celebrate love, friendship, fashion, food, music, teachers, exams and those simple, silly yet inspiring moments that make us really enjoy life. Are your boxes packed? Your bags stuffed? If you are ready to move in, then what are you waiting for... LET'S GO!
