Dennis Trillo and Jennylyn Mercado Make a Powerful Primetime Comeback with Sanggang Dikit FR

After ten years, real-life couple Dennis Trillo and Jennylyn Mercado are back on primetime TV, and this time, their chemistry is even more authentic. As a married couple both on- and off-screen, they bring a different kind of energy to their newest show, Sanggang Dikit FR, airing weeknights on GMA Prime.

What makes this comeback more exciting is the genre shift. Jennylyn, known for her drama and rom-com roles, takes on action for the first time. She plays Bobby Enriquez, a tough and cheerful cop. Dennis, meanwhile, becomes Tonyo Guerrero, a smart but rule-bending officer. Their characters cross paths while solving a murder case that ties into their pasts, forcing them to work together despite their differences.

It’s a mix of suspense, humor, and real emotion. Dennis shared that they even perform their own stunts, which adds to the rawness of their scenes. “We’re doing fight scenes together,” he said. “It’s action-packed, but it still has heart.” Jennylyn admitted she said yes to the project because she was excited to work alongside her husband in a more intense, physical setting.

The director, L.A. Madridejos, plays a huge role in bringing balance to the action and emotional depth. According to the couple, his attention to character development made the experience smooth and rewarding.

Aside from the leads, Sanggang Dikit FR features a powerhouse cast that includes Roi Vinzon, Nova Villa, Al Tantay, Allen Dizon, Jeffrey Santos, and Marina Benipayo. Supporting them are Joross Gamboa, Liezel Lopez, Juancho Trivino, and Sam Pinto. Adding a fresh spark are Sparkle's young stars like Chanty Videla and Zonia Mejia, as well as popular influencers like Abdul and Marsy.

Produced by the GMA Entertainment Group, this series promises more than just action scenes. It explores partnership, both in law enforcement and marriage, showing that when two people work together, they can overcome anything.

Whether you're tuning in for the crime-solving drama, the action sequences, or the real-life couple dynamic, Sanggang Dikit FR is a weeknight treat you might not want to miss.
