Budoy is a Philippine television drama series broadcast by ABS-CBN. Directed by Ruel S. Bayani and Claudio "Tots" Sanchez-Mariscal IV. It stars Gerald Anderson,[1][2][3][4] Jessy Mendiola[5][6] and Enrique Gil.[7] It aired on the network's Primetime Bida line up and worldwide on TFC from October 10, 2011 to March 9, 2012, replacing Guns and Roses and first season of The Biggest Loser Pinoy Edition and was replaced by Dahil sa Pag-ibig.
It tackles the story of Budoy, who is mentally challenged, and his family, relationships and social issues.[8][9] The theme song was "Saan Darating Ang Umaga" sung by Angeline Quinto produced by Jonathan Manalo.[10]
The show is notable for the main character's catchphrases such as "Hello, ako Budoy!" (Hello, I'm Budoy) and "Jackie, gusto mo BJ?" (Jackie, you like BJ?), with the latter phrase being mistaken as a double-meaning line.
Budoy has been produced by Dreamscape Entertainment. It was co-existed with 100 Days to Heaven from October 10 to November 18, 2011 and Ikaw ay Pag-Ibig from November 21, 2011 to January 27, 2012. It was succeeded by Ikaw ay Pag-Ibig.
