Sisid (English: Pearl Diver) is a Philippine underwater action drama directed by Ricky Davao for GMA Network. It premiered on May 30 2011, starring Jackie Rice, JC Tiuseco and Dominic Roco.
Sisid was first launched as part of GMA Network's "nationwide dominance" plug and was originally set to replace Koreana starting 28 February. It was postponed because Jackie Rice, who plays the main character, did not know how to swim (as required by the show); she took swimming training and lessons before taping any episodes. My Lover, My Wife suddenly took out the time slot that was originally meant for Sisid.
The story revolves around the Perlante — a pearl that is believed to give wealth and comfort to anyone who gets it. This is one of the dreams of Eden, (Jackie Rice) to get the said mysterious pearl. Due to her expertise in diving, she is very confident that someday she will find it.
