Popular segments of the show were Mr. Boom Boom, Walang Sisihan, and Tessie Tomas spoofing the great PAGASA weatherman Amado Pineda as Amanda Pineda.
In 1985, the show was rumored to have been cancelled by RPN, which was then owned by President Ferdinand Marcos' crony, Roberto S. Benedicto. Some of the show's gags were allegedly not amusing to the administration.
