Studio One was based on Ask One which launched on Dubai One in September 2010. Ask One was pre-recorded and broadcast weekly at 19:30 on Tuesday nights and featured a mix of real life stories, interviews, reports, investigations and cookery segments. On 28 December it was announced that from 12 January Ask One would change it's name to Studio One and be broadcast live, daily at 19:30 UAE time. There were sixteen episodes of the original series.

Season One of the new series began on 12 January 2011,[9] with Urquhart and Wahid returning from the Christmas break. The new format featured a number of significant changes from Ask One, including a new set, title sequence, graphics, music and reporters. Other regular features included live performances, reports from destinations around Dubai and fashion segments on Mondays and Thursdays. Additionally Thursday's had more of a food focus featuring the Mystery Bag Challenge and co-host Saba Wahid preparing one of her own recipes in the 'Quick Foodie Fix'.

On 2 May 2011 Studio One broadcast its 100th episode with a live television link up with a party at Dubai Festival City.[10][11] The first season finished on 30 June with the 120th episode.

Growing up, Saba developed many different hobbies and participated in a variety of extracurricular activities ranging from sports such as Alpine skiing, Biking, Running, Field Hockley, Ice Hockey and Lacrosse. But the hobby that Saba most connected with was cooking.

Saba studied in the states obtaining a BA from the University of Massachusetts, and then continuing on to Hospitality Management at the French Culinary Institute in New York City. Working for a prestigious catering company in Manhattan and organizing events, she worked closely with some of the best chefs the city had to offer. She then found inspiration to begin catering private events by using her own creative cooking style and fused South Asian and Middle Eastern cuisine, but presented it in a more contemporary manner. Saba’s strong ties to the culinary arts ultimately brought out her passion to be able to communicate this in the realm of television. After appearing in a number of locally produced cooking shows she made the move to Dubai where she took the next step in her career and presented Ask One and then Studio One.[15] In 2011 celebrity magazine Ahlan! described her as Dubai's next celebrity chef.[16] On 30 June 2011 Saba announced live on television that she would be leaving the show.
