John en Marsha

Old "John en Marsha" theme.



John En Marsha (English: John and Marsha) was the longest-running and most watched prime time comedy sitcom in the Philippines during the 1980s that aired on RPN (Solar TV). It starred Dolphy with the late Nida Blanca, Dely Atay-Atayan and Maricel Soriano.



The show ran from 1973 to 1990. The cast include John Purúntong, his wife Marsha, their children Rolly, Shirley, and, later in the show, John-John, and his pesky and nagging mother-in-law Doña Delilah. It ran every week for 17 years until 1990. A spin-off from the series, John En Shirley, aired on ABS-CBN in 2006 with only two returning cast members, Dolphy and Maricel Soriano, reprising their old roles.
