AlDub - It is the fans that have made this show what it is

When Lola Nidora (Wally Bayola) finally gave her go-ahead for the first real solo date of Alden Richards and YayaDub (Maine Mendoza), the AlDub nation went wild.

Imagine the reaction when the first date happened on Sept. 19, a day the Aldub nation had been waiting for for the last two months.


The Aldub nation pushed Twitter tweets for the day to an astounding 12.1 million by midnight for #ALDUBMostAwaitedDate.

“The Kalye Serye is really a gift from God. No one can take credit for how it started,” says Joey de Leon in an interview. “But there are miracles, and I believe this is one of them.”

De Leon is quick to acknowledge the contributions of Bayola, Jose Manalo (Lola Tidora) and Paolo Ballesteros (Lola Tinidora) for making the show a hit.


“They are veteran comedians,” De Leon said. “Wally and Jose have gone through a lot in life – and it is from these experiences that they draw the lessons they share on the Kalye Serye.”

Every week, from Monday to Saturday, viewers are glued to their TV sets in anticipation of the plot’s twists and turns for the day.
