MANILA, Philppines – The Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB) has summoned the directors, producer, and writer of the show Till I Met You to discuss episodes that aired on October 25, 27, 27, and 28.
In a letter dated November 2, signed by MTRCB chairman Eugenio "Toto" Villareal, directors Antoinette Jadaone, Andoy Ranay, executive producer Arnel Nacario, and writer Shugo Praico were called to attend the November 10 conference.
The October 25 episode was the first to receive complaints, as it included a sex scene between James Reid and Nadine Lustre's characters.
According to the MTRCB's letter, "some audiences found [the scene] to be unfit for television (despite its "SPG" advisory)."
In the October 26 episode, the line "sex lang yan (it's just sex)" was mentioned, while the October 27 and 28 episodes had alleged "sexually teasing" scenes, as well as "outrightly-sexually charged bath-related scenes."
"With the above, considering that 'PG' and 'SPG' ratings still admit the reality of having young audiences, the Board shall expect you to present your side at the said conference which shall be before a Committee particulady designated for the matter," wrote the MTRCB.
