The show aired every Saturday and Sunday at 7:00 a.m. (PST) except for some ABS-CBN Regional stations, where it was broadcast at an earlier time of 5:30 a.m. to make room for locally produced ABS-CBN Regional news programs like the Saturday editions of Maayong Buntag Kapamilya, Panay Sikat, and Maayong Buntag Mindanao.
