Just when you thought TV was getting irreparably dull, here comes a TV drama with a cannibalistic turn.
In an episode of Magpakailanman on GMA, Dennis Trillo will play “a character named Samuel, a criminal who killed, cooked, and ate his father due to a mental condition,” according to a report by Bandera.
The episode is entitled “Patawad, Ama Ko” (“Forgive Me, Father”).
In an Instagram post, the actor said it’s the probably the toughest role he had to do in his entire career.

How will this disturbing gruesomeness play out on family-friendly primetime TV?
I guess we’ll have to tune in to find out.
The episode will air on Saturday, July 20, at 8:40 p.m, according to GMA’s programming schedule. —JG
