Honesto is a Philippine television drama series broadcast by ABS-CBN. Directed by Jerry Lopez Sineneng, Darnel Joy R. Villaflor and Claudio "Tots" Sanchez-Mariscal IV, it stars Raikko Mateo and Paulo Avelino. It aired on the network's Primetime Bida line up and worldwide on TFC from October 28, 2013 to March 14, 2014, replacing Juan dela Cruz and was replaced by Mars Ravelo's Dyesebel. It is based on the 1940 Walt Disney Productions film Pinocchio.[1][2][3]

Production

The production of the series started early September 2008, under the name Utoy. Dolphy said in an interview with ABS-CBN that he had a hard time working on scenes with animation. Dolphy, Makisig Morales, Kathryn Bernardo, Jake Vargas, Eddie Gutierrez, Liza Lorena, Gloria Diaz, Ethel Booba, Tanya Garcia, Izza Ignacio, Jon Avila, Victor Basa, Sheryn Regis, Melissa Ricks, Eda Nolan, Charee Pineda, Jayson Gainza, Will Devaughn, Ryan Eigenmann, James Blanco, and Rainier Castillo would be played as Papa Yoyo, Utoy, Abby, Christian, Luis, Manilyn, Diana Rose, Fairy Alipia, Tinkerbell, Jocelyn, Ricky, Robin, Fairy Fantasia, Emerald, Celine, Cheska, Bernie, Rico, Wilmar, Dino, and Exekiel respectively. Dolphy later confirmed to PEP.com the news that Utoy was shelved, after he moved to TV5. Dolphy would later pass away in 2012 at the age of 83.[4][5][6][7][8][9]

Following Dolphy's death and five years after it stalled production, the name was changed to Honesto with entirely different casts.
