Introducing Losing Heaven...





Loosing Heaven (Kung Aagawin Mo Ang Langit) is a GMA production from 2011 starring Carla Abellana as Ellery, Mike Tan as Jonas and Michelle Madrigal as Bridgitte. The show replaced Two Wives on KTNKenya at the usual timeslot. Since the show is already a week in, I’m late in publishing this post but this is for those who are yet to get the main drift of it. Philstar.com published the synopsis for the program back in 2011 and below is an excerpt giving the overall background story for the show. 



"Loosing Heaven tells the story of high school pals Ellery (Carla) and Bridgitte (Michelle). Despite the apparent differences in their social status, the two become best of friends as they find themselves both sharing the same house and same set of parents. 
Ellery’s father decided to adopt Bridgitte when her parents passed away.As the years pass, Ellery fulfills her dream of becoming a teacher while Bridgitte turns into a fashion designer. While partying with friends, Bridgitte meets Jonas (Mike) and instantly falls head over heels in love with the charming bachelor. Much to her dismay, Jonas only has eyes for Ellery. The two hit it off right away, so when Jonas proposed marriage to Ellery, she readily accepted. Bridgitte, who is secretly hurting and overly jealous, gives way to their romance but bears a heavy grudge against Ellery.
The couple’s marriage goes through a rough patch when Ellery discovers she cannot conceive a child. Desperate to have a baby, they resort to in vitro fertilization with Bridgitte gladly volunteering to be the surrogate mother in the hopes of winning Jonas’ love and attention. Everything seems to be working perfectly until Ellery gets into a car accident that leaves her in a coma. 
Jonas and Ellery’s parents are completely devastated by news that she may never wake up. Several months passed with Bridgitte finally giving birth to their baby while Ellery is still unresponsive in her hospital bed. Bridgitte uses this opportunity to force Jonas to marry her for the sake of their child and urges him to annul his marriage with Ellery due to incapacity of wifely duties. 
Now that Bridgitte finally gets Jonas and the life she has always wanted, how will she face the consequences if and when Ellery survives her unconscious state? Not only did Bridgitte destroy their marriage but also stole Ellery’s husband. If she wakes up, will Ellery fight tooth and nail to claim what’s rightfully hers? Will she exact revenge on the woman who ruined her once blissful life?
How will the former best friends resolve the conflict — whether legally or morally — especially when the lives of their loved ones are at stake?"

After the success of Two Wives, I was a little disappointed with KTNKenya for  giving us a show from five years ago when there has been so many others produced since then but a week after watching it, Loosing Heaven is developing well enough (although we are a little thrown back by how fast it’s moving .) That’s all part of the back story and I think it’s going to be good once all the cards are in place. The graphics are poor, which indicate that the show is really old but we’re willing to look past that and enjoy the show for what it is.
What’s your take on the show a week after watching it?
