Audience Reception My reception Well, at first I didnt like the idea of My Husbands Lover because Im not a homosexual, and I dont like homosexuals too, so I didnt gather in the Pilot Episodes of My Husbands Lover.But then, my Mom used to watched television after work, it just so happens that she turned the channel to channel 7 (GMA) and the show was My Husbands Lover, she watched for a few minutes, after the show she got attract ed by the story. She goes by everyday watching the show. I have no choice but to watch too, since we all have one television and I have nothing to do. The shows story is proficient as it is. I just dont like the theme of the show which is about homosexuals. But by watching it every day, I came to like the show. I even got excited when Lally is about to note her husbands secret.I think I liked the show because of the professionalism of the actors, and the moral lesson given to us by the story itself. There are many moral lessons in this story you just need to knife deep into the words spoken by the actors. B.

This is the first drama that tackles same-sex relationship in a very tangibleistic manner. Aside from that, the family issues this drama portrays are something that most of us tolerate empathize with or can even relate to.

We see Vincent and Eric, all masculine and manly, identify themselves as gay men. We see that their relationship is root on love and not on monetary co-dependence.We see that there are many layers of characters that define a gay man. We see two gay men struggle prejudice that pushes them to loathe themselves and hide who they genuinely are. We see that all people, no matter what gender, struggle in their own way.
