Wheel of Love: Weekend to Remember Episode 1

Wheel of Love: Weekend to Remember (2021) Episode 1: Arina Grande

Aside from being a Filipino (Pinoy) boys' love (BL) series, "Weekend to Remember" is also a Pinoy family drama, akin to most Pinoy drama series (teleserye). Episode 1: Arina Grande was a strong pilot episode. The plot/storyline revolving around the Asuncion family was clearly laid out on this episode. I liked that each Asuncion sibling has defined characterization. Even the house helper Jenevie has specific characterization. I just hope Jenevie isn't reduced into merely one of the series' comic relief characters. Screenplay was conversational. Acting was on point. Kudos to all the actors! They acted naturally. Enzo, Nico, and Sam were all good-looking! Keijee and John have chemistry together. Gilleth's the perfect mother for the Asuncion siblings. Even the kids Hannah and Sean were ok. Production design, cinematography, sound engineering, musical scoring, and editing were all good. The soundtracks "In Love Ako, In Love Sayo" (I'm in Love, in Love with You) and "Sana Tayo" (I Wish It's Us) by Camille Rose Tarrosa were nice. My only complaint about this premiere episode was that it's too short. Anyway, I'm excited for next week's episode.
