Development

The first danserye is based on original concept created for GMA Television by Senedy Que with head writer Des Garbes Severino, choreographers Miggy Tanchanco (modern) and Donald Balbuena (ballroom), and directors Mark Reyes (musicals) and Andoy Ranay (drama). In 2010 it was planned for a working title Jump. It is supposed to be replacing Tween Hearts but the GMA Network decided to put it on the Primetime block. The show is slated for 2011 despite 2010. Several auditions across the Philippines were held. The auditionees were seen in Party Pilipinas (until it was premiered in August 2011), with a working title Time of My Life. ^[8]

According to AGB Nielsen Philippines' Mega Manila household television ratings, the pilot episode of Time of My Life earned a 24.7% rating. ^[9]

Controversy

During filming of the series, actress Cherie Gil slapped the face of actress Jean Garcia, which was not part of the script. Gil stated she was "carried away", leading her to slap Garcia during their scene. ^[10]
