Kadenang Ginto premiered on October 8, 2018, on ABS-CBN.[5] The series was the network's second longest-running afternoon drama series of the 2010s with a total of 348 episodes.

In 2020, it re-aired on the newly launched Kapamilya Channel via pay cable and satellite, under the title Kadenang Ginto: The Golden Comeback from August 22, 2020 to May 1, 2021, every weekend replacing the second season of The Voice Teens and was replaced by Parasite Island.[14] As a result, the remaining episodes until the finale moved to Jeepney TV from May 3, 2021 to March 18, 2022, replacing the re-runs of Pusong Ligaw in the timeslot.

International broadcast

In December 2021, the show had its international broadcast in Ecuador as La Heredera via the free-to-air TV network Ecuavisa.[15]

Impact

[edit]

The series proved to be a huge hit in the Philippines on the late 2018 and on to the whole 2019. It is one of a few daytime television dramas to last for more than a year due to maintaining high viewership. The rivalry of Cassie and Marga (Francine Diaz and Andrea Brillantes) and Romina and Daniela (Beauty Gonzales and Dimples Romana), four of the series' main characters, became a trending topic nationwide. Furthermore, a scene which featured Daniela (Dimples Romana) wearing a red dress while pulling a luggage bag became viral on various social media platforms, helping Romana's popularity and career reach new heights. In addition, one of the most famous lines in the show, "Cassie, ‘di ka muna papasok sa school." (lit. 'Cassie, you’re not going to school for now.') – uttered by Daniela – easily became the show's catchphrase among the viewers. The show also launched the loveteams of Brillantes and Seth Fedelin (SethDrea/MarKoy) and Diaz and Kyle Echarri (KyCine/CassToff), collectively known as The Gold Squad.
