Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Bayan Ko is a six-episode Filipino Government Procedural miniseries from GMA Network, created by Nessa S. Valdellon, and starring GMA regular Rocco Nacino in the lead role of Mayor Joseph Santiago, as he's sworn-in as the newly-minted mayor of the small, provincial (every)town of Lagros, in the fictional island province of Sibilan. Also stars LJ Reyes as Attorney Karen Canlas, the municipal chief-of-staff; Mercedes Cabral as Femme Fatale Eliza Bauer; and veteran actor Pen Medina as Sibilan's Provincial Governor Antonio Rubio Sr.—and his Real Life son Ping Medina as the governor's congressman son Anton, among others.This being a series about Philippine politics, it's second nature that Joseph Santiago will run up against powerful, regressive, established political elements, in particular the Rubio dynasty, led by the corrupt, feudal patriarch that is Sibilan's governor, Antonio Rubio. His son Anton (who serves concurrently as Congressman) might not be so on board with the system into which he was born though.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

Anachronism Stew: The Lagros municipal office, which still uses IBM Selectric typewriters despite that—assuming this series is set in The New '10s, since there's no real reason for it not to be—computers in some form can be had even for cheap, even with equipment overpricing as standard procedure. A few CRT-style monitors show up too but even they already feel a bit out of date. Either the office is stuck in a mini-time warp or it's really just that corrupt in there that it can't afford equipment less than a decade old.

Antagonistic Governor: Gov. Antonio Rubio, who rules Sibilan province with the proverbial iron fist (despite his family's image as a "simple", paternalistic family caring for the provincial populace), and as part of the Philippine political establishment, is inherently at odds with Mayor Joseph's Clean Up the Town approach to governance.
