Meet Mark Herras in drag.
Beginning this Sunday, Mark will topbill GMA’s newest comedy series ‘Conan, My Beautician’. This series will feature Mark in a role that he has never played before: that of a gay man.
In ‘Conan, My Beautician’, Mark will play Conan, a straight man who is the most talented yet desperate beautician at Salon Paz. But in order to accept the job, he has to pretend that he is gay; after all, he needs the money for the sake of his sick mother and family, who were banished from their hometown by Chika La Chaka (Cacai Bautista).
Along the way, he met and fell in love with Ava (Megan Young), whom he worked along in a make-up gig. But as the story goes on, his fellow beauticians seem to notice that Conan may not be gay at all.
‘Conan, My Beautician’ will also star Jerald Napoles, Betong Sumaya, Boobsie, Tetay, Lotlot de Leon, Jay Manalo, Balang, Chlaui Malayao, Vangie Labalan and Antonette Garcia. It will be co-directed by Adolf Alix and Rember Gelera.
Continuing the recent trend of Sunday afternoon comedy series that was first seen on ‘Juan Tamad’, a lot is expected on ‘Conan, My Beautician’. Still, winning its timeslot will be a daunting task, considering that ABS-CBN’s ‘Family Feud’ remains the most-watched show nationally every late Sunday afternoon.
Nevertheless, expect the series to pull all the stops. Playing a man dressed in drag is a great challenge for Mark Herras, and if the viewers find it awesome and funny, that should help spike ‘Conan, My Beautician”s performance.
‘Conan, My Beautician’ airs every Sunday at 5:00 p.m. on GMA.

Produced by, you guess it: GMA Public Affairs. The same division that produce To the Top and Alamat.
Too bad, I’m going to miss it but I don’t mind.
Another nonsense program of GMA.
Thing is, any entertainment program that is produced by GMA Public Affairs is considered nonsense. Their role is to produce relevant news docus, not entertainment shows. Simply put, GMA’s Entertainment Department is becoming increasingly unreliable, that’s why their news department is trying to pick up the slack.
Lilybeth Rasonable needs to be fired or file her resignation papers ASAP. She basically destroyed the reputation of GMA’s Entertainment Group since she arrived.
Baka ma-overexposed si Mark, bukod sa Conan, may Sa Piling ni Nanay pa siya.
There’s nothing to worry about. Yung Sa Piling ni Nanay every weekdays lang, while Conan airs every Sunday.
