John Lloyd Cruz and Toni Gonzaga who play married couple Romeo and Juliet in ABS-CBN’s Saturday night sitcom Home Sweetie Home are overwhelmed by comments that their show—which uses comedy in teaching couples about the do’s and don’ts in marriage and family life—is this generation’s equivalent to late Comedy King Dolphy and movie queen Nida Blanca’s legendary John en Marsha.

In fact, when the show began in 2013, Cruz was vocal in saying he hopes the public will fall in love with Home Sweetie Home the way they did with the 17-year-old program over the now defunct RPN 9, since their goals are similar: To represent the everyday challenges of a typical Filipino household, and how to overcome them with love, prayers, unity, and a whole load of humor.
