'Obession' Pilots Like a Film on Jan 23

TV5's first drama offering for 2014 Obsession will not just heat up Thursday nights but will surely alter the face of primetime starting tonight (January 23).

Topbilled by Marvin Agustin, Martin Escudero, Neri Naig and Ms. Bianca King, Obsession centers on the the story of a woman who pushes the boundaries of love and sanity to win back the heart of her former lover.

On her first ever project with TV5, the renowned actress Bianca King plays the role of Vanessa, a new identity created by the famous cosmetic surgeon Dr. Ramon Mendoza (Marvin Agustin) for Bernadette (Neri Naig) after he found her in distress. As Bernadette becomes Vanessa, she transforms from an awkward, shy and insecure woman to a confident, sexy and beautiful lady determined to avenge herself from her playful ex-boyfriend James (Martin Escudero) who broke her heart. But is she ready for the prize of her obsession? 

Helmed by Direk Jay Altarejos, Obsession is an hour-long once-a-week series which, unlike the traditional 30 minute teleseryes, ensures the quality of drama and gives viewers a complete story per episode.
