Sam Milby on his feelings for Shaina Magdayao: "Ako, gusto kong makilala muna siya nang mas mabuti na, kumbaga, kita yung kung may connection talaga kami, kung anong pwedeng, di ba, yung mga usapan, ganun. Pero yun, wala pang development. Basta ganun, friendship pa rin."

After more than a year of being inactive in movies and television, Sam Milby is making a comeback this year.
The positive feedback on late-afternoon ABS-CBN series Kahit Konting Pagtingin—where Sam co-stars with Angeline Quinto and Paulo Avelino—is a good sign for the Fil-Am actor-singer.
Other projects lined up for the rockoustic hearthrob this year include a recording for a movie theme song, a movie with Anne Curtis, and a teleserye with Judy Ann Santos.
PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) and other members of the press got to sit down with Sam last Friday, February 22, at the 14th floor of ABS-CBN’s ELJ Building.
His schedule nowadays, Sam says, is just like when he first got out of the Pinoy Big Brother (PBB) house.
As he puts it, “Sobrang daming blessings ngayon.
“Actually kanina, natapos ang taping after 5 [a.m.] so parang nasasanay ulit na walang tulog. Parang nagsisimula ulit.
“I mean, after PBB, ganun din yung schedule ko na walang tulog.”
JOGGLING TELESERYES. Sam talks about doing Kahit Konting Pagtingin and his teleserye with Judy Ann, Against All Odds, at the same time.
He relates, “Parang dahil sa dalawang teleserye, every Tuesday-Thursday-Saturday, light na, di ba, KKP, Kahit Konting Pagtingin.
“Tapos Monday-Wednesday-Friday yung taping for Against All Odds, na mas heavy drama.
“Yung character ko dun, gray character na. Basta hindi siya yung tipong good Sam na ginawa ko dati. And, ayun, mahirap.
“Eto ang first time siguro sa seven years na nasa business ako na may dalawang teleserye, sabay.
“Pag may sabay na project, laging movie-teleserye. Never na may dalawang teleserye sabay.
So eto, mas mahirap pag teleserye kasi maraming eksena na nagsu-shoot sa isang araw.
"Pag movie, mas konting emosyon, mas konting kailangan, di ba? So eto, ayun na talaga.
“But sobrang happy ako na I get to have ganito kadaming blessings and I get to explore a different character din sa Against All Odds.”
Sam admits shooting two teleseryes at once can get confusing.
He says, “Uhm, mahirap nga. Sometimes, dumadating ako sa set ng Against All Odds or sa KKP thinking, ‘Sino ba ako?’
“But at the same time, kahit sa set, iba yung feel. Sa KKP, very light kami dun, e. It’s a light, fun…
“Si Ange [Angeline Quinto], siyempre, very naturally funny na very light na person.
"Pati si Paulo, pag nagsu-shoot kami ng eksena and everything, very... it’s very light.
“Pero sa Against All Odds, pag nagshu-shoot kami ng eksena, very... you could feel the heaviness of the teleserye and the scene.
“So it helps talaga na yung mga kasama ko sa teleserye ay mga magagaling talaga na actors.
“Sa Against All Odds, siyempre si Judy Ann, si Tito Pip [Tirso Cruz III], si Tita Coney [Reyes]. And they really helped me out a lot.
“Nakakalito minsan but… minsan mahirap. But kaya ko naman.”
KAHIT KONTING PAGTINGIN. How does he feel about the success of Kahit Konting Pagtingin?
Sam says, “I feel na itong Kahit Konting Pagtingin, ah… what’s the word? Ayoko namang sabihing experimental.
“Siyempre lahat ng... pag primetime, yung oras na 'yan, kadalasan naman drama, heavy drama.
“So nagulat sila sa success ng Please Be Careful With My Heart, di ba? So they wanted to go with also that theme na light.
“And lahat kami, sobrang happy sa reaction, sa feedback, sa ratings.”
As they are both Angeline’s leading men, is there a competition between him and Paulo Avelino?
“Hindi naman puwedeng iwasan sa pagko-compare. Pero sa aming dalawa, hindi naman competition.
“Siyempre, first time din namin na magkasama sa isang project and [Paulo’s] very easy to work with.
"Ang saya, he’s a lot of fun. Magaling talaga siya.
“Yung mga first taping days namin kasi, siya yung tahimik na type. He’s the quiet person.
"Pero habang tumatagal, nag-o-open up and very kumportable na.
“Very fun, fun talaga. Happy set naman.”
SHAINA MAGDAYAO. On a more personal note, PEP asked Sam how he spent Valentine's Day.
His safe answer: “Nagbigay ako ng flowers…surprise guest ako sa concert ni Angeline.”
Pressed to share more, Sam reveals, “Siyempre birthday din ni John Prats so meron siyang birthday party sa bahay [niya].
"So lahat kaming magkaibigan [nagpunta].”
