GMA-7 has officially released the titles of its shows for 2021.
An omnibus plug was aired during the New Year Countdown of the Kapuso network on Thursday, December 31, 2020.
It showed the set of offerings for its two prime drama blocks—Afternoon Prime and Telebabad—as well as the network’s entertainment weekly programs.
GMA Public Affairs is also set to air originally produced drama and entertainment shows for GMA-7’s news channel, GMA News TV, in 2021.
GMA-7 AFTERNOON PRIME
Two drama series that temporarily went off the air because of the Coronavirus pandemic will finally air fresh episodes.
One is Magkaagaw, which top-bills Sunshine Dizon, Sheryl Cruz, Klea Pineda, and Jeric Gonzales.
It will resume airing in February 2021.
Bilangin Ang Bituin Sa Langit, featuring Mylene Dizon, Kyline Alcantara, and Nora Aunor, had started airing recaps in December 2020. Fresh episodes will start airing in January 2021.
New titles of shows to air on GMA Afternoon Prime were also revealed.
There's Babawiin Ko Ang Lahat, top-billed by Pauline Mendoza, Tanya Garcia, John Estrada, and Carmina Villarroel. The program was originally slated for 2020, but it was postponed because of the pandemic.
Ken Chan and Rita Daniela’s team-up will be joined by former ABS-CBN actress Anna Vicente in the series Ang Dalawang Ikaw.

However, there was no formal announcement about the fate of Glaiza and Mike’s Seed of Love. Was it shelved?
