Perhaps the most-anticipated teleserye of the year--Imortal--premiered last night after Noah on ABS-CBN. What did you think?

John Lloyd Cruz proudly announced last Sunday on The Buzz that the long wait for “Imortal” is over and that even rival channels TV5 and GMA-7 are talking about it.

And finally, after some delays and protests from fans, it premiered last night.

Imortal opens with Angel Locsin, as Lyka, protecting her daughter from a group of vampires. She turns into a werewolf and starts attacking every bloodsuckers who attempt to kill her daughter. Unfortunately, she gets outnumbered and was badly injured. A group of werewolves come to the rescue but its too late.

Then the next scene narrates how vampires came to shore in the 1500s. Known as the Bampiras, their menace quickly spread throughout the land. But a powerful clan also lived in the islands, a group of beings who can transform themselves into powerful wolves – the Taong Lobos. The Taong Lobos were the humans’ protectors and they immediately formed an army to destroy the vampires. The blood drinkers were no match to the Taong Lobos because a bite from these creatures is fatal for them.

Angel Locsin once again assumes the character of a she-wolf as she brings life to the character of Lia, the daughter of Lyka. John Lloyd Cruz, on the other hand, will portray the role of Mateo, a vampire who will be attracted to Lia.

With the foreseen battle between the Bampiras and the Taong Lobos, we got the hint that Mateo (a vampire) and Lia (a werewolf) will find themselves drawn to each other. They come from rival clans but they will still fall in love despite their opposing nature.

So what did you think about the pilot episode and the teleserye in general?
