'Sang Linggo nAPO Sila (February 4, 1995–November 28, 1998)

Sa Linggo nAPO Sila (They Are Now On Sunday) is a Philippine musical-variety show that aired on ABS-CBN from December 3, 1989 to January 29, 1995. The show aired live from the Studio 3 ABS-CBN Broadcasting Center in Quezon City. The show competed with GMA Supershow but when Eat Bulaga! moved to GMA Network from ABS-CBN, the management later announced they will move the APO Hiking Society and the rest of their co-hosts to the daily noontime slot and renamed as 'Sang Linggo nAPO Sila (They Are Now On All Week) to fill the void in ABS-CBN's weekday lineup. Sa Linggo nAPO Sila went its final airing after six years on January 29, 1995, and was replaced by ASAP.

Critical response[edit]

In March 1992, Angela Stuart Santiago of the Manila Standard criticized the show's lack of professionalism, stating that "Jim, Danny, and Boboy rarely know the lyrics of the songs they sing; often their numbers with guests and female co-hosts turn out like amateur karaoke affairs, out of tune and out of synch [sic]."[1]
