Tanods
Tanods is a hilarious comedy that follows a band of misfit barangay tanods led by their “Bayaw” of a Brgy. Captain Roger Grace (Jun Sabayton). From the brilliant cast, to the stellar writing and well- developed characters—down to the equally amazing guest stars (including Ramon Bautista, "ehem" Bogart the Explorer, Lia Cruz, Joyce Pring, and Mr. Joey de Leon among others), the team-up of Director Miko Livelo and Executive Producer Jako de Leon, as well as the partnership between the groups involved (PunchKick, PaperbugTV, The Playground) makes Tanods a testament to the idea that creative collaborations can generate great things."
