Synopsis

This sitcom revolves around the adventures and misadventures in the life of Dr. Aga, a young veterinarian who has inherited his brother's children. Dr. Aga has just opened his animal clinic in a middle-class subdivision and plans on a successful career. He lives with his best friend and "kinakapatid" Godo in the duplex that is in a compound owned by Don Berto Makunatan a.k.a. Babsy. His duplex unit doubles up as his vet office while the other unit is used by Babsy and his three children, Paolo, Alex (Agot Isidro) and Toni (Claudine Barretto).

Aga was leading a normal single life and was quite enjoying his bachelorhood when his brother-in-law lost his job. Because of this unfortunate situation, his brother-in-law is forced to take on a job abroad which required him to bring his wife. Being the only relative who has a respectable status, Aga is stuck with the responsibility of caring for his sister's two children, Camille (Camille Prats) and Fonzie (Alfonso Martinez). This cuts short his life as a bachelor and catapults him into the status of a father and mother.

Few years later, Aga and his friends were forced to leave their former home due to the demolition and make way for the construction of a flyover. However, when they transferred to their new territory it was near the street market. In their new community, they are joined by their new neighbors, friends and acquaintances including Alfredo (Ching Arellano) and Dyords (Carmina Villarroel).

Cast

Main cast

• Aga Muhlach ^[1] as Dr. Agaton "Doc Aga" Villaluz - He is the typical "guy next door" kind of fellow. Women fall for him easily because of his boyish looks.

He is very well organized and clean. He loves having fun and once in a while plays jokes on friends. He has a well-balanced sense of humor and enjoys displaying this. Aga is very reliable and believes that a man's word is sacred. Aside from being a veterinarian, he loves to dance and engage in sports. He adores his "pamangkins" and takes very good care of them. He simply loves animals and this is why he's able to put up with his "kinakapatid", Godo.
• Babalu (1993–1998) as Don Robert "Papsy/Mang Berto/Babsy" Makunatan - He is a millionaire don, rich but kuripot, since the death of his wife, Mamsy.
