Overview

I Laugh Sabado was a comedy variety show of Q Channel 11 which featured sketches and musical numbers. It was hosted by an ensemble of Filipino comedians and character actors, Wally Bayola, Paolo Paraiso, Gee Canlas, Jana Dominguez, Jan Manual, Alfred Marquez, and Archie Alemania. It was directed by Bibeth Orteza.[1]

The show, admits Paolo, is patterned after the long-running US show, "Saturday Night Live." "’I Laugh Sabado’ will have gags, sketches, skits and a knock-knock portion. We have a celebrity guest every week who will serve as the show’s host. There will also be a band and dancers."[2]
