Bagets centers on a story of young individuals coming from different backgrounds and co-existing in a campus despite their class differences and clashing personalities. These interesting characters include school rivals Ace (AJ Muhlach) and Georgina (Nadine Lustre), who bring out the best and the worst of each other through their competition. Ace is a friendly athletic scholar who is popular in school due to his academic and extra-curricular activities while Georgina is a working student and a campus leader who is not afraid to speak her mind. Meanwhile, competing with Ace for George's attention is a rich kid named Jules (Josh Padilla), who is popular with the girls because of his good looks, charm, and affluence. Jules’ confidence, however, sometimes borders on arrogance.
There is also the "kikay" girl Gayle (Shy Carlos) who stalks "emo" guy JC (Rico dela Paz). The two will eventually discover and appreciate their individualities more than their differences. On the other hand, Santi (Johan Lourens), who comes from an affluent family, is linked to social climber and poser Tara (Eula Caballero). When Santi falls in love with Tara, she gets caught between her lies and revealing her true feelings to Santi. Last but not least, the boy-loves-girl and the girl-hates-boy type of relationship between Hiro (Aki Torio) and Liezl (Meg Imperial) will definitely stir up the story of the exciting Bagets series.
In December 2010, Perci Intalan, the creative head for TV5, revealed a remake of Bagets that would be co-produced by Viva Television.[1] TV5 brought in Mark A. Reyes, the director of 90s series T.G.I.S., to direct the remake. TV5 recommended Rico dela Paz and Eula Caballero to join the cast. Viva then recommended AJ Muchlach and Aki Torio, who were also members of the Filipino boy band XLR8. Muhlach is also the brother of Aga Muhlach, one of the stars of the original film. The campus bullies were cast via auditions. Original Bagets members Raymond Lauchengco and Cheska Inigo also joined the remake's cast.[2]
