Arthur Solinap: "Nakita ko doon 'yung samahan na 'Wow, ganun namin ka-love 'yung show.'"

Versatile Kapuso actor Arthur Solinap, who plays Robert in Pepito Manaloto: Tuloy Ang Kuwento, shared in his exclusive chat with GMANetwork.com his memorable moment in the show.

According to the Sparkle talent, their shooting in the United States in 2013 brings a lot of fond memories for him.

Arthur recalled, “Sa 15 years napakarami ng memories at saka masayang moments. Pero ito ang unang pumasok sa isip ko, 'yung nag-out of the country kami.”

He continued, “Kasi nung pumunta kami sa States nauna kaming cast, 'tapos nahuli 'yung production. Kailangan namin mag-shoot.

“Doon ko nakita 'yung [cooperation like], sige ako 'yung mag-PA. Nakita ko doon 'yung samahan na 'Wow, ganun namin ka-love 'yung show.' Saka 'yung company ng isa't isa, 'yung mga dating trabaho si Kuya John [Feir], nag-e-EP (Executive Producer). Doon nagsama-sama, tapos ako willing ako mag-wardrobe, kami ni Janna [Dominguez].

“So para sa akin memorable 'yun, kasi nakita ko 'yung paano kami nagtulungan. Magtulungan lang, makakabuo ka ng isang magandang show. Siyempre nung dumating na sila [production], e 'di mas naging kumpleto na 'yung taping namin sa Amerika.”

Aside from the upcoming 15th anniversary special of Pepito Manaloto, the GMA Entertainment Group is also spearheading their multi-platform campaign "More Tawa, More Saya," a celebration of GMA's decade reign as the “only” and “undisputed” source of quality and fun content as its flagship comedy programs celebrate huge milestones this 2025.

When he heard about this year-long campaign initiative, Arthur stated that it's about time to celebrate the success of GMA's comedy program.

“It's about time, siyempre 'di ba nagse-celebrate tayo ng 15 years sa Pepito Manaloto. Sa network naman 75 years. Marami dapat i-celebrate lalo na itong nakaraang years, galing tayo sa pandemic, we are still here.

“Very successful ang network [and] mga shows, so, we deserve to celebrate.”
