Premise

[edit]

The lives of three friends, Marie de Guzmán, Rina Fuentes, and Ella Domingo are intertwined. After a huge fire separated the girls from their respective families, they decided to band together as a unit they can call family.

They have overlooked one big obstacle: Katrina Rodríguez will never allow the three to live in peace: she is out to destroy each of them: Marie is the daughter of Katrina's former lover; Rina knows too much of Rodríguez family’s secrets and a heiress of Rodriguez and Villareal; Ella is the sole heiress of the ₱800-million wealth of the Rodríguez family. Katrina's nemesis is the Rodriguez matriarch Doña Corazón, who is ready to stop her; as her long-lost aunt, she knows Katrina's darkest secrets.

Impact

[edit]

Marinella created a phenomenon in the afternoon slot when it posted high ratings on its timeslot. It served as a lead-out program to the already-popular noontime variety program Magandang Tanghali Bayan. Their one-two punch combination at the noontime slot effectively ended the long-time domination of TAPE Inc. (producer of Eat Bulaga!) in the same time slot.

Most of the cast members became household names due to the popularity of the series. One of the supporting cast members of the show, Eula Valdez, was pulled out of the series in mid-2000 after ABS-CBN decided to cast her in the lead role of Amor Powers in the primetime series Pangako sa 'Yo.

Reruns

[edit]

Marinella was previously aired internationally via Cinema One Global from 2013 to 2014. In 2022, reruns of the series began to air on Kapamilya Online Live Global every 12:00 am to 2:00 am from February 17 to August 3, 2022; it was succeeded by Nang Ngumiti ang Langit the following day (August 4).
