History

[edit]

Johnny Litton, a seasoned television personality, has been in the small tube since the 1970s.

Oh No! It's Johnny premiered on ABS-CBN on October 7, 1987, and was hosted by Johnny Litton. It originally aired every Wednesday night. The show was produced by Roselle Rebano of Silverstar Communications, Inc. and was similar in feel and format to American late night talk shows.

In 1992, Maurice Arcache joined the show as co-host. He popularized his "Arcachat" segment, which gave social and etiquette tips weekly.

In 1995, Oh No! It's Johnny was moved to Friday night and then Sunday night in 1997.

The show ended in August 15, 1999, after almost 12 years of airing. As a result, it was occupied by The Weekend News on its Sunday night timeslot.
