History

edit

Pamilya Ko was aired on ABS-CBN's Primetime Bida evening block every weeknights at 5:45 P.M. from September 9, 2019 to March 13, 2020 for a total of 135 episodes.[4] Due to the enhanced community quarantine in Luzon caused by the COVID-19 pandemic in the Philippines, the drama was put on halt and was replaced by reruns of 100 Days to Heaven beginning March 16, 2020 (later moved to afternoon lineup) and Meteor Garden (2018) from May 4 until the network's shutdown on May 5.[5]

On March 31, 2020, Sylvia Sanchez and her husband Art Atayde tested positive for COVID-19.[6]

Cancellation

edit

Pamilya Ko, along with Make It with You cancelled their production on June 13, 2020.[3] This happened a month after the ABS-CBN ceased its free-to-air broadcast operations on May 5, 2020,[7] due to the cease and desist order issued by the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) and Solicitor General Jose Calida.[8] Meanwhile, Pamilya Ko production manager Mavic Holgado-Oducayen passed away on July 22, 2020 due to heart attack after the House of Representatives denied the new franchise for ABS-CBN.[9][10][11]
