This Sunday on GMA News TV, National Geographic Channel's Freaks of the
Sea takes us deep into the oceans of our planet, where creatures weirder
than our wildest dreams or our scariest nightmares lurk.

Multi award-winning underwater cameramen John Boyle and renowned Red Sea
specialist John McIntyre have collaborated to produce this wide ranging
blue-chip television special, filmed over several years, portraying some
of the strangest underwater creatures from every corner of the planet.

The country's first election dates back to more than 100 years ago. Ours is a history of voting for public office that has been colorful, loud, very expensive and often quite violent.

Providing viewers with important lessons from our tumultuous past, GMA News TV presents Kasaysayan ng Eleksyon, a special documentary that goes through highlights of elections over the past century.

GMA News TV's production team recreates a typhoon, the flooding of the municipal hall and a series of dramatic rescues in the powerful conclusion of its 1st Original Series Bayan Ko.

A decade of wanton and illegal logging leaves the watersheds of Sibilan vulnerable when a major storm hits. The result: a massive flash flood, causing the death of hundreds of civilians.

How Mayor Joseph Santiago and his staff respond to the disaster, even with their own families in danger, paints a moving picture of what political leadership can be.

He is behind the famous perfume line ‘Afficionado’ and is one of the most successful entrepreneurs in the country. As a child, he dreamed big and he owes his success to his strong determination to succeed. He has a house made of gold, palace-like mansions, a troop of bodyguards, and several businesses. But Joel still gives time to philanthropic works in many charitable institutions.

The much awaited ending of the Pinoy adaptation of Temptation of Wife
finally happens on GMA Telebabad as the series airs its final and
tension-filled episode that will keep viewers glued until the last scene
tomorrow, April 5.

This Sunday, Born Impact tackles alien species that create havoc in the natural environment.

From other countries, humans managed to get them into the Philippines purposefully or by accident. In the absence of natural predators, they flourish, reproduce more quickly, and become a threat to natural wildlife that they either eat or compete with for food. Eventually they become “invasive,” taking over areas where native species once thrived.
