Kalyeserye is a 2015 soap opera parody aired live within the "Juan for All, All for Juan" segment of the Filipino noontime variety show Eat Bulaga! on GMA Network in the Philippines and worldwide through GMA Pinoy TV. The mini-show, as it has evolved, focuses on AlDub, the fictional couple pairing — or "love team" as it is more commonly known in the Philippines — of Alden Richards and Maine Mendoza's "Yaya Dub" character in which the two only communicate through Dubsmash/lip-syncing and written messages, and interact only on the show's split-screen frame. Richards is usually based inBroadway Centrum studio of Eat Bulaga! in Quezon City while Mendoza is on a remote location, usually a visited barangay (village).
The 55-minute (weekdays) to 1 and 1/4 hour (Saturdays) portion features liveimprovisation from Alden Richards, Maine Mendoza, Wally Bayola, Jose Manaloand Paolo Ballesteros who all play various roles while the other hosts of Eat Bulaga! located in the studio serve as live commentators (usually a live "panel" consisting of 3-4 Eat Bulaga! hosts) that interact with the characters and also the audiences. Kalyeserye has elements of comedy-drama, parody, romantic comedy and reality television. According to Anna Leah Sarabia, a Filipinoanthropologist, the segment uses fairy tale and soap opera tropes. The term "Kalyeserye" is a play on the Filipino word teleserye (television series) and is aportmanteau of the Tagalog words kalye (street) and serye (series). It was coined by Joey de Leon, oue of the primary hosts of Eat Bulaga!, to refer to the location outside the studio which is usually shot out on the streets of Metro Manila or in the provinces of the Philippines that serve as the remote setting of the parody segment.
The portion proved to be a success in both broadcast television and social media, resulting in a significant increase of viewership and popularity of Eat Bulaga! on its 36th year in Philippine entertainment.[1] In addition, it has also contributed immensely to the rise of the careers of Richards and Mendoza.

Background[edit]

Casting[edit]

In 2015, Alden Richards, who had finished filming the mini-series Ilustrado(2014), was invited to join Eat Bulaga! as a host for a month-long trial period, hosting various segments such as "That's My Bae" with Indian-Filipino radio disc jockey Sam Y.G..[2] A month later, Maine Mendoza, who had initially gained online popularity by uploading and posting her Dubsmash videos in various social media platforms, auditioned for the program after catching the attention of its producers.[3] Mendoza eventually joined the cast in July 2015.[3] She recalled that she was originally casted as a lawyer for Eat Bulaga! '​s "Juan for All, All for Juan" segment but was ultimately casted as Yaya Dub (Divina Ursula Bukbukova Smash), a nanny for Wally Bayola's "Lola Nidora" character.[3] Utilizing her online popularity because of her viral Dubsmash videos, Mendoza only communicates in the series through vocal dubbing and does not actually speak onscreen. Her character was initially portrayed as a very snobbish nanny who doesn't even smile or laugh.[3]

Day one onwards[edit]

On the show's July 16, 2015 episode (dubbed by AlDub fans as "Day 1"),[4] Mendoza broke out of her "Yaya Dub" characterwhen she accidentally smiled upon seeing Alden Richards on the show's live split screen while doing her Dubsmash/lip-syncing act, which led the live panel members Allan K. and Joey de Leon to tease her after she saw the handsome actor. Because of the unexpected reaction from Mendoza, it prompted Eat Bulaga '​s producers to make an onscreen couple of the two.[3][4] Mike Tuviera, a resident director for the show, revealed that the tandem was made by accident.[5] The name "AlDub" was conceived as a portmanteau of the tandem's names, Alden and Yaya Dub.[6] And despite being featured in the show, the couple have yet to meet personally, only interacting through the show's split screen frame and conversing in dubbed audio samples of popular songs and lines from popular films and TV series as well as through handwritten messages on screen.[7]
Due to the audiences' positive reception to the AlDub pairing, Eat Bulaga! '​s producers decided to make a 30-minute portion under its "Juan For All, All for Juan" segment for the tandem which also serves as a viable replacement for the previous "Problem Solving" portion.[8] Pegged as "Kalyeserye" (Filipino for "street series"), it was described as a dramedy series with elements of parody of Philippine television dramas, romantic comedy and reality TV performed by improv acting, which was broadcast live from a street in the different barangays featured daily in the "Juan for All, All for Juan" set.[8] Poochie Rivera, one of the program's directors, described it as "natural and unscripted", saying that "Nothing is rehearsed. We are trying to maintain the spontaneity because that is a big part of its charm.".[8] Starring the AlDub love team, the Kalyeserye also features the trio of comedians Jose Manalo (as Lola Tinidora & various characters), Wally Bayola (as Lola Nidora and his various characters) and Paolo Ballesteros (as Lola Tidora and various characters) who were now collectively known as "JoWaPao".[8]

AlDub[edit]

Main article: AlDub
The mini-show tandem's name is derived from a portmanteau of the tandem's character names, namely Filipino actor Alden Richards, who portrays a fictionalized version of himself, and Yaya Dub (full name: Divina Ursula Bokbokova Smash, a playful reverse-acronym of Dubsmash), portrayed by comedienne Maine Mendoza. Both joining the program's cast in 2015, Richards first appeared as a host of Eat Bulaga! '​s various segments, such as the "That's My Bae" portion; while Mendoza appears only as "Yaya Dub" in the "Juan for All, All for Juan" segment. Exclusively interacting through the show's split screenframe, the AlDub couple have yet to meet personally, only communicating through dubbing audio samples of popular songs, films and TV series as well as handwritten messages on screen.
Some of the running gags, gimmicks and storylines throughout the parody series include the "Pabebe Wave" (a "cutesy" wave, hence the Filipino colloquial term "Pabebe", which was derived from "Pa-baby", meaning "to act cute like a baby") between Alden and Yaya Dub,[2][6] Lola Nidora lobbying for a pairing between Yaya Dub and Frankie A. Arenolli (dubbed as "YaKie", portmanteau of Yaya Dub and Frankie that also sounds like "yucky"),[9] Lola Nidora issuing labor challenges to Alden to prove his love for Yaya Dub,[10] and the incompetency of the numerous Rogelios, Lola Nidora's bodyguards.[11] The Kalyeserye's main storyline is the Cinderella-like forbidden courtship between the AlDub tandem, with its paramount goal being the first physical meeting of the two, a move continually opposed by Lola Nidora.[6][8][12]
The AlDub couple's near-encounters on live television also became pivotal throughout the series. In the show's August 8, 2015 episode, which featured the first wedding between the "YaKie" tandem, Mendoza legitimately collapsed while performing on live television and was immediately rushed to a nearby hospital, resulting in an improvisation by the segment's remaining characters — Frankie (Manalo), Lola Nidora (Bayola) and Alden himself.[13][14] Mendoza later revealed through her social media accounts that she experienced fatigue hours prior to the show.[15] In its August 12, 2015 episode, Yaya Dub appeared at Broadway Centrum's TAPE Eastside Studio for her Cinderella-themed performance on Eat Bulaga! '​s"Bulaga Pa More! Dabarkads Pa More!" segment. The episode marked as the closest rendezvous between the two, only to be interrupted by Lola Nidora's twist (who played as an evil witch) on Mendoza's performance, citing through the video package that Mendoza/Yaya Dub will become a gigantic squash if she doesn't get out of the studio when the clock strikes at twelve o'clock. She indeed ran out of the studio when the clock struck at twelve, but in doing so, she accidentally left her other "glass shoe" which was discovered by Alden seconds later, leading to a dramatic chasing scene at the end of the show.[12][16]

Overview[edit]

Main article: List of Kalyeserye episodes
Doña Nidora and Yaya Dub first appeared as replacements for Doktora Dora de Explorer on July 4, 2015 (Saturday), participating in the Problem Solving portion of the "Juan For All, All For Juan" segment. However, the Kalyeserye could be properly said to officially start on July 16, 2015 (Thursday), when Yaya Dub sees Alden for the first time and thus, the AlDub tandem was born.
The show now follows the love story of Yaya Dub (Maine Mendoza) and Alden (Alden Richards). Yaya Dub's employer, Lola Nidora (Wally Bayola), was initially against the their budding love but later on, finally approves their romantic connection. Lola Nidora then reveals her Book of Secrets/Secret Diary which contains various reasons of her disapproval. The appearance of Alden's aunt, Doña Celia (Celia Rodriguez), the luxurious Frankie Arenolli (Jose Manalo), and the socialite DuhRizz (Wally Bayola) made things even more complicated. As the story unfolds, characters from Lola Nidora and Yaya Dub's past were revealed as a part of their backstory. Lola Nidora turned out to be one of the triplet children of the Zobeyala Family (collectively known as "de Explorer Triplets/Sisters" and "Kalye's Angels", despite the fact that their surname is actually Zobeyala, which should be "Zobeyala Triplets/Sisters") together with Tidora (Paolo Ballesteros) and Tinidora (Jose Manalo) while Yaya Dub turned out to be the granddaughter of their adopted sister, Isadora (Paolo Ballesteros).

Production[edit]

Music[edit]

Kalyeserye utilizes a number of songs while Alden and Yaya Dub communicate through split-screen. The most used songs for their lip-synch interaction include "God Gave Me You" by Bryan White, "Thinking Out Loud" by Ed Sheeran, "Twerk It Like Miley" by Brandon Beal, and "Fantastic Baby" by BIGBANG. Alden even sang "God Gave Me You" live before going to Lola Nidora's mansion to visit Yaya Dub for their second date. Yaya Dub and Alden frequently dance in celebration to the tune of "Fantastic Baby". In one episode, the couple also sang "Wish I May," which is included in Alden's album, using their own voices and not via Dubsmash/lip-synch as they usually do in the show.
There are also songs being played often (theme music) when either one or all of three sisters, Nidora, Tidora, and Tinidora, enter or exit their scene. Towards the end in most of the episodes of Kalyeserye, the three sisters pose a la Charlie's Angelswith "Wannabe" by Spice Girls being played in the background. While entering her scene, Tinidora and her Quandos would dance to the tune of Lou Bega's version of "Mambo No. 5." Tidora, before entering the scene, was always shown lip-synching to Mariah Carey's various songs. The chorus of the song "Dessert" by Dawin is played when Nidora enters the scene or is feeling very happy. The chorus of "Macarena" by Los del Rio is played when Isadora is entering into the scene. The chorus of "Fashionista" by Jimmy James is played when Cindy is entering into the scene while modelling.

Reception[edit]

Eat Bulaga! ratings[edit]

Kalyeserye proved to be a success in both broadcast television and social media. The segment helped boost the show's ratings, the August 12, 2015 episode of Eat Bulaga! posted a 36.1 rating in AGB Nielsen's overnight measurements among Mega Manila households, this became the show's highest rating for the year.[30] The AlDub couple became an overnight phenomenon on both television and social media.[31][32] The pivotal wedding episode between the YaKie tandem on August 8, 2015 scored a 32% percent rating and a 300% increase in viewership for Eat Bulaga!, according to the Nielsen ratingsconducted by AGB Nielsen Philippines.[1][8] On a weekly survey by Kantar Media Philippines, the tandem was cited in helping the program to become a number one daytime program for weeks.[33][34] According to AGB Nielsen's research, Eat Bulaga! '​s August 12, 2015 episode marked the first time that show reached the all-time high in viewership for the year with a 36.1% rating, which was mainly alluded to the tandem's near-meeting.[35] More than a month later, on September 26, 2015 during the tandem's second date, Eat Bulaga! '​s broke their previous record with a 45.7% rating.[36] Almost a month later, Eat Bulaga breached the 50% mark at 50.8%, superseding their previous turnout.[37]

Cultural impact[edit]

The Aldub tandem was described by media pundits as a success in converging both broadcast and social media,[38] as featured in the front page of the Philippine Daily Inquirer for Sunday, August 16, 2015.[8][39]
Eat Bulaga! director Poochie Rivera also theorized that the coupling's successful response from audiences was because of the Filipinos who can relate with their predicament.[8] He remarked "People who have partners who work abroad often communicate and pursue their relationship online, through Skype or FaceTime."[8] Pauleen Luna, a castmember of Eat Bulaga!, commented that AlDub "has brought a different kind of energy to the show."[40]Anna Leah Sarabia, a Filipino anthropologist, cited the "Kalyeserye"'s use of fairy tale and soap opera's tropes helped in tandem's increasing popularity, saying that "It's a 'Cinderella' story that's fake and true-life at the same time."[8] Filipino television executive Malou Choa-Fagar also cited the unpredictable nature of the Kalyeserye had largely contributed to the AlDub success.[8] In social media site Twitter, hashtags with AlDub became top trending topics in both the Philippine and Worldwide trends.[41] Various outlets also lauded the show's use of old and new media for the AlDub tandem, which also pulsated in raising the value of the Dubsmash app in the Philippines.[39] The popularity of the tandem even reached some schools and became a topic discussed in classrooms; for instance in aUniversity of the Philippines Diliman Filipino class.[42] Several Filipino politicians also referenced the AlDub couple in various interviews: Ralph Recto cited the tandem as a symbolism regarding the Philippine Land Transportation Office license plates,[43] while Mar Roxas also referenced AlDub in his 2016 presidential campaign.[44]
The August 22, 2015 episode earned positive feedback from Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) and Radyo Veritas via Twitter for highlighting Filipino love, responsibility and marriage moral standards.[45] Recently, Mendoza (as Yaya Dub), Bayola (as Lola Nidora), Eat Bulaga and TAPE Inc. were awarded by the 1st Catholic Social Media Awards for promotion of values. Maine Mendoza was also awarded the Gintong Kabataan Award by the Provincial Government of Bulacan.
Professor Randy David of the University of the Philippines, in his Philippine Daily Inquirer column Public Lives last August 23, 2015, wrote about the depth and significance of Maine Mendoza's voice/mime characterization of Yaya Dub, challenging us to look deep within our own nature, who we really are when we are not performing:
Indeed, we may as well ask the same question of ourselves: Who are we when we are not performing? I think that if there is anything that Yaya Dub has shown us, it is the stereotypical and "mediatized" nature of our emotions and modes of expression. In that sense, we are performing all the time. What we think are spontaneous feelings that we communicate from the depth of our beings are really nothing but ready-made emoticons that other people have deployed in various other contexts. The shock of that recognition, I am certain, is what sustains the fascination with Yaya Dub. She gets behind all of us, and lip-syncs the standard texts of our private selves—our insecurities, anger, celebratory moments, and frustrations. Beneath the performance is parody of the highest type.[46]

Social media[edit]

The segment is also a frequent Twitter trending topic while the abridged versions uploaded in Eat Bulaga!'s Facebook page and highlights on GMA Network's YouTube channel had become viral. From July 27, 2015 to August 26, 2015, 16 out of the 30 Philippine trending topics are from the show's AlDub tandem.[47]

Twitter records[edit]

On August 29, 2015, 3.5 million messages were sent on Twitter with the hashtag #ALDUBMaidenHeaven, a record number of tweets in the Philippines about a single subject. This amount, which was achieved in one day, exceeded the number of Tweets sent with the hashtag #PapalVisit, during Pope Francis's January 2015 visit in the Philippines, a predominantly Catholic nation.[48] However, the October 24, 2015 record with the hashtag #ALDubEBTamangPanahon currently stands as the most tweeted at 41 million, beating the 2014 World Cup match between Brazil and Germany.[37]

Careers of Richards and Mendoza[edit]

The success of the AlDub tandem also contributed to the careers of Richards and Mendoza. The AlDub's success has helped Richards secure a four-year film contract with APT Entertainment, while the Philippine Basketball Association teamBarangay Ginebra San Miguel and Mahindra Enforcers was also reported to have been considering inviting Mendoza as their muse for the 2015–16 PBA season,but she refused.[49][50] Mendoza and Richards also appeared in separate profile interviews regarding the AlDub's success on the television program Kapuso Mo, Jessica Soho.[38][51] Tuviera also revealed in an interview about a possibility of making 2015 feature film starring the AlDub couple.[49] Another report also confirmed that Richards and Mendoza will be part of 41st Metro Manila Film Festival entry My Bebe Love starring Vic Sotto and Ai Ai delas Alas.[52]
In an interview with Startalk, Richards revealed that he did not expect the success of the show/segment and is overwhelmed by the popularity of the AlDub tandem.[53] In other interview, Richards revealed that he is open to the possibility of AlDub to star in a movie or TV show.[54][55][56]
To date, Mendoza has appeared in advertisements for 555 Sardines and O+ Ultra (with Wally Bayola in his Lola Nidora character), while both Richards and Mendoza have appeared together for McDonald's Philippines' promoting their Chicken Fillet ala King product,[57] Talk 'N Text's Extend promo,[58] Zonrox Plus Thick Bleach and Bear Brand Adult Plus.
Since after the Tamang Panahon event, Mendoza started her co-hosting stint in Juan For All, All For Juan segment and briefly ATM with the Baes segment with Alden Richards in Eat Bulaga!. Mendoza and Richards have their first photoshoot for the upcoming movie My Bebe Love, alongside Vic Sotto and Ai Ai delas Alas.[59] Mendoza makes her television drama debut as Chef Elize in Princess in the Palace which stars Ryzza Mae Dizon.
