Overview
The show was created by German Moreno who initially wanted teenaged celebrity siblings to star in the show and name it as Brothers and Sisters. After watching the American film That's Entertainment!, Moreno decided to change the title of the show. Premiering on January 6, 1986 on GMA Network, the show featured sixteen teenagers (divided into 4 from Monday to Thursday and gathered all together on Friday). The show later joined the network's Saturday afternoon line up. The show first aired from the GMA building in EDSA and eventually moved to GMA Broadway Centrum in 1987 to accommodate a wider studio audience.[1]
The cast was separated into five groups; Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. During the Saturday broadcast, all five groups performed together. The show also featured dance groups such as the Manoeuvres, Streetboys, Abztract Dancers, Kids at Work and Universal Motion Dancers.
The final episode, "That's The Reunion" was aired as a 2-hour primetime television special on May 3, 1996, which featured former cast members of the show.[1]

Critical reception
Henry C. Tejero of Manila Standard, said That's Entertainment to be the worst musical variety show of 1987, stating that it is a "veritable fleamarket with Top 40s music as aural wallpaper and alien video lifestyles grossly distorted to conform with popular imagination as visual hypnosis."[122]
