Initially, HTNB visited selected barangays and places in Metro Manila (Manila, San Juan, Marikina, Quezon City, Caloocan, Valenzuela, to name a few) and Central Luzon (Pampanga), using a roving truck that transformed into a stage using remote control hydraulics system, with various segments and games cater to the growing number of audiences from Class D & E (masa).[1]
Competed against long-time rivals ASAP of ABS-CBN, Sunday All Stars of GMA Network and its successor, the comedy-and-variety show Sunday PinaSaya, it was the brainchild project of TV5's Entertainment Division Head Wilma Galvante. HTNB also served as drive for advertisers and sponsors thru on-ground and below-the-line activation events and pluggings for the network's new shows.
HTNB did "taped as LIVE" shows in different parts of the country, in Northern Luzon, Southern Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao.[2]
The show ended on February 7, 2016. It will be replaced by a similarly formatted program, Happy Truck HAPPinas, set to premiere live on March 6, 2016 at 11am.
