Origin and style

Hoy Gising! was a public service program that began on TV Patrol as a segment handled by Frankie Evangelista. It grew into a half-hour program, later extended to an hour, chiefly anchored by Kris Aquino, Ted Failon, and Korina Sanchez. The show covered various problems associated with the government, as well as social issues, using a semi-humorous style of commentary on the featured issues and problems.

The show was directed by Rolly G. Reyes, who also wrote the lyrics of the theme song (set to the tune of Shame and Scandal by Trini Lopez) and created the segment titles. The show had a mambo-themed opening song performed by The Kumbancheros.

T3: Kapatid Sagot Kita is a spin-off of Hoy Gising! on TV5, one of whose former co-hosts is Erwin Tulfo. Another spin-off is On Call: Serbisyong Totoo. Ngayon. on GMA News TV, which features former Hoy Gising! co-host Connie Sison.
