Gimik was a Filipino youth-oriented television series aired and produced by ABS-CBN. The show ran from June 15, 1996 until February 13, 1999 every Saturday.

Reruns aired on TFC (International) Cinema One Global and Jeepney TV as part of its new revamped channels.

Development

The teen-oriented show consisted mostly Talent Center artists (now ABS-CBN's Star Magic). It became the launching pad for the careers of the most successful young stars of their generation in mid 90's. The series was originally created as part of ABS-CBN's 40th anniversary, which was patterned on Beverly Hills, 90210,[1][2]

Additional cast

Several Talent Center artists joined the show when the original cast members (Judy Ann Santos, Rico Yan, Diether Ocampo, Jolina Magdangal, Patrick Garcia and Marvin Agustin) [3] became successful in their separate careers, making it hard for them to appear regularly, nevertheless Lj Moreno, Kristine Hermosa and Dominic Ochoa were added. In 1997 Rica Peralejo (from rival show TGIS), Jodi Sta. Maria, Baron Geisler, Paula Peralejo, Carlos Agassi, Laura James, John Lloyd Cruz and Cheska Garcia joined the show. Diego Castro later left the show and moved to rival show TGIS.
