Originally hosted by Billy Crawford, Alex Gonzaga, Bayani Agbayani, K Brosas, Wacky Kiray, Ariel Rivera, KC Montero, Francoise "Laboching" Faisan, Mark Averilla (also known as Macoy Dubs) and Jeff Tam, it aired on Kapamilya Channel's Unli PrimeTanghali afternoon line up and TV5's Lunchtime Saya afternoon line up from October 19, 2020 to April 29, 2023, replacing Kapamilya Blockbusters on Kapamilya Channel and One PH simulcast of One Balita Pilipinas on TV5 and was replaced by Kapamilya Blockbusters on Kapamilya Channel and Face 2 Face on TV5.

Overview

[edit]

The show was first known as Lunch Out Loud which premiered on October 19, 2020, as a regular daily noontime variety show as part of TV5's blocktime deal with Brightlight Productions. The encore episodes were subsequently aired on Cignal TV's cable channel Colours TV until the said cable channel closed down on January 1, 2022. The original hosts include Billy Crawford, Alex Gonzaga, Bayani Agbayani, K Brosas, Wacky Kiray, Ariel Rivera, KC Montero, Francoise "Laboching" Faisan, Mark Averilla (also known as Macoy Dubs) and Jeff Tam. The show marks the return of Gonzaga and Agbayani to TV5.[1][2]

On July 16, 2022, Lunch Out Loud was reformatted with a new title Tropang LOL and began its simulcast over Kapamilya Channel, Kapamilya Online Live and A2Z. It was moved to an earlier timeslot at 11:00 AM as a preprogramming to It's Showtime and part of their back-to-back collaboration. The show is also available in IWantTFC and TFC.[3][4]

Tropang LOL officially aired its final episode on April 29, 2023, after almost three years and Face 2 Face replaced its vacated timeslot on TV5 on May 1, along with It's Showtime returned to its original 12:00 nn timeslot until June 30 when the network's blocktime agreement expired. The next day, It's Showtime moved its simulcast to GMA Network-owned GTV before it expanded into GMA Network's main channel and AMBS-owned ALLTV nearly a years later,[5][6][7][8] whereas TV5's new noontime show, E.A.T. (later becoming Eat Bulaga! on January 6, 2024) premiered at the same time.[9][10][11]
