Katorse (lit. Fourteen) is a television primetime series that aired on ABS-CBN from August , 24, 2009 to January 8, 2010 replacing Boys Over Flowers. It tells the story of a simple small-town girl who fell in love with a childhood friend who later fathers a child with her. It is loosely based on a 1980 film of the same name courtesy of Regal Films starring Dina Bonnevie, Gabby Concepcion and Alfie Anido.
The show stars 2005 Star Circle Grand Questor Erich Gonzales as teenage mom, Nene. This is Gonzales' first starring role in a primetime program. The series showcases showbiz newbies Ejay Falcon and Xian Lim in their first starring role in a primetime series. ABS-CBN picked the cast because they believe that primetime television needs to have new faces, to make it look fresh and better than the usual actors.
In early July 2009, ABS-CBN released the program's trailer, which revealed the cast of Katorse to include veteran actors Malou de Guzman (as Nene's mother) and Cherie Gil as Gabby's mother, where she plays a less villainous role. Cherie Gil and Erich Gonzales had worked together in Pieta. Gil saw a lot of potential with Erich and believes that she will go far in the showbiz industry.
Doo doo doo do doo
Doo Do doo do doo
Feeling the time is never near
It's clear the clocks are very wrong here
Shadow people come and disappear
Try not to be so all alone
It's hard to hear my stomach when it groans
'Cause as much as it's filled with stone
And my heart just beats in monotone
Doo doo do do doo
