[edit] History

January 21, 1995 saw the transfer of Eat Bulaga! to GMA Network. Due to this, ABS-CBN had to replace the long running and much syndicated Sa Linggo nAPO Sila to the vacated slot of Eat Bulaga!. This saw the birth of Philippine Sunday TV's hottest noontime variety show; A.S.A.P.. The show combined for the first time on television four of the most-well known personalities in their respective fields: the "Concert King" Martin Nievera, the "Concert Queen" Pops Fernandez, singer and matinee idol Ariel Rivera, and Miss Universe 1993 also known as "Dancing Queen" Dayanara Torres. The title of the new show was initially unknown, this was then later revealed as A.S.A.P. or All-Star Afternoon Party. The show originally had their own theme song, set, as well as interesting and innovative numbers. Initial broadcast commenced on February 1995 at the Delta Theatre (a former studio of ABS-CBN from 1995-1998). In 1998, they transferred to their (present) studio at the ABS-CBN Broadcasting Center Studio 3 in Eugenio Lopez Drive in Quezon City. Through the years, ASAP has experienced numerous hosting innovations, program highlights, and other high profile guestings. One of the revered controversial program highlights was when main host Martin Nievera tearfully resigned on air due to his marital problems with wife Pops in 1998. ASAP then scored high ratings and reviews against its rivals. In 2003, the show was reformatted as ASAP Mania, after which some of its original hosts went to the rival show, SOP Rules. The current format started in 2005 as ASAP '05. In 2008, Asia's Nightingale Lani Misalucha joins ASAP. Enchanting Diva Karylle, Zsa Zsa Padilla's daughter joins ASAP as she transfers from Kapuso to Kapamilya. Currently the show is known as ASAP '09.

The show served as training ground for the teenagers to enhance their talent in hosting, dancing and singing. When Dayanarra Torres left the country, Ms. Charlene Gonzales took her place. Channel V’s Joey Mead also joined the show for a while. By 1997, regular guest Ms. Zsa Zsa Padilla became a regular host the following year. After Martin Nievera left two years ago, award-winning actor Richard Gomez took his place. In March 1999, matinee idol Onemig Bondoc joined the group. ASAP became one of the top-rating noontime shows and became the favorite launching ground of aspiring new talents from the recording industry to the movie industry as well. Only on ASAP will you get to hear new music fresh from the airwaves and the latest dance steps from your favorite dance groups Maneouvres and Streetboys who regularly perform on the show.
