The cast and crew of the hit primetime series FPJ’s Batang Quiapo gathered for a heartfelt finale watch party as they marked the end of the action-packed drama’s three-year run on television.
Leading the celebration was actor-director Coco Martin, who expressed gratitude to the team and fans who supported the show since its premiere in 2023. The gathering served as both a farewell and a celebration of the program’s impact on Philippine television.
The series officially concluded on March 13 after airing nearly 800 episodes across seven seasons, making it one of the longest-running and most watched primetime programs in recent years.
During the watch party, Martin reflected on the journey of portraying the character Tanggol Montenegro and thanked his fellow actors, production staff, and viewers who followed the series’ dramatic twists and intense action scenes throughout its run. The event brought together key cast members and creatives who helped shape the show’s success and cultural influence.
First airing in February 2023, the series was inspired by the classic 1986 film of the same title and followed Tanggol, a street-smart man navigating life and crime in Quiapo while searching for the truth about his identity. The show became a staple of Philippine primetime television and gained a massive following both on TV and online platforms.
Throughout its run, FPJ’s Batang Quiapo delivered a mix of action, drama, and emotional storytelling that resonated with audiences nationwide. Its finale watch party served as a fitting tribute to the series’ legacy and the strong camaraderie built among the cast and crew over the years.
Martin closed the evening with a message of gratitude, acknowledging the show’s supporters and the “Batang Quiapo family” who helped bring the story to life until its final episode.
