Michael V., meanwhile, plays the role of M.C. Bits, the host of the sketch.

Ang Dating Doon

A screenshot of Ang Dating Doon featuring Brod Pete and Cesar Cosme

Ang Dating Doon (English: What Used to Be There) is a sketch that parodies the Members Church of God International's long-running religious program Ang Dating Daan, and in particular its sister program Itanong mo kay Soriano, Biblia ang Sasagot! The program's "hosts" are Brod Pete (Isko Salvador)—a caricature of now-former MCGI leader Eli Soriano with a name referencing American actor Brad Pitt, Brother Willy (Cesar Cosmey), and Brother Jocel (Chito Francisco)—who is often seen sleeping through the show.

The sketch parodies the MCGI's "Bible expositions"; during each sketch, various members of the audience come up and present questions to Brod Pete to be answered by the panel. However, rather than scripture, Pete has Brother Willy read various extracts from nursery rhymes or song lyrics instead, and then interprets the "passage" to answer the question presented. Various exclamations such as "Alien!" or "Raise the Roof!" would also be used (as a parody of the common exclamations "Amen" and "Praise the Lord"). At first, the nursery rhyme "Row Row Row Your Boat" was used as its theme song, but it later began to comedically use the Voltres V opening theme "Voltes V no Uta".

The sketch originally appeared on Bubble Gang from 1998 to 1999, and was briefly revived in 2001 and 2005. In 2011, the sketch was revived as Ang Bagong Dating Doon (The New Formerly There), with Brod Pete's books replaced by laptops and an iPad (with Jocel sometimes seen checking his social networks or playing games rather than paying attention to the show), On the June 27, 2014 episode, the sketch was retitled Ang Bagong Dating Doon International , reflecting the new formats of Ang Dating Daan and Itanong mo kay Soriano wherein the MCGI's Mass Indoctrinations and Worldwide Bible Expositions, respectively, replaced the previous ones, after Soriano went into exile in 2010.

In a 1999 interview, Soriano himself stated that he didn't mind the parody, and credited the sketch for boosting the popularity of Ang Dating Daan.

Variations of the sketch have appeared on other Filipino comedy programs; when Salvador moved to ABS-CBN and became a regular on its show Klasmeyts, the sketch was brought to the show as Doon Dati with a similar premise and elements. As a satire of the MCGI's conflicts with the Iglesia ni Cristo (INC), the show featured a sister sketch—May Tama Kami ("We Are Nuts", lit. "We Are Correct")—a parody of the INC show Ang Tamang Daan where hosts played by Bayani Agbayani and Herbert Bautista rebuked Brod Pete's teachings through nursery rhymes and children's folk tales. The ABC sketch comedies Ispup and Teka Mona! also featured variations of Ang Dating Doon; the latter, Ang Daming Daan ("Many Paths" or "Many Hundreds"), featured Joey de Leon portraying Bro. Elvis Soriano—a composite of Soriano with singer Elvis Presley—and Mike "Pekto" Nacua as Brother Hud, Bro. Elvis' Judas-like assistant. It followed a similar premise to Ang Dating Doon;, except the audience members had to pay ₱100 to ask a question (a parody of one of the accusations to MCGI by INC wherein Bro. Eli allegedly charges his followers with a large sum of money).

Brod. Pete is also a segment host for the UNTV show Klasrum (formerly as Bread Tambayan). Ironically, UNTV is the current home of Ang Dating Daan, and UNTV is operated by Breakthrough and Milestones Productions International (led by its chairman and CEO "Kuya" Daniel Razon, nephew of Eli Soriano and the Assistant Overall Servant of MCGI) which is under the Broadcast ministry of MCGI.

"Hiyang-hiya naman ako sa 'yo, 'no?!" was his catchphrase, which he usually says near the end of his skit after which he will look at the camera with a surprised look, his hands raised across his head and his name flashing at the bottom of the screen, though there have been some variations (E.g. in a drive-thru skit, he slumps his head on the steering wheel of his car right into its horn honking the car in the process right after saying his catchphrase and another episode shows the one holding a glass of wine and drinks it during a Valentine date.) One example is this dialogue: Mr. Assimo: Jorge, Ipa-print mo nga itong mga papers. Pakibilisan lang ha? (Jorge, please print these papers. Quickly.) Jorge: Sir, i-piprint ko po, di ba? (Sir, I will print it, right?) Mr. Assimo: Hindi. I-fafax mo, para may makatanggap na iba at sila ang mag-paprint para sakin!

Ay, apatin mo na. (Three. No, make it four.) Jorge: Sir, apat ho, di ba? (Sir, four copies, isn't it?) Mr. Assimo: Hindi! Walo. Dalawang daan pa nga eh. Ano Ba?! Kakasabi ko lang apat eh! Pambihira naman... (No! Eight. Even two hundred will do. Oh c'mon! I already said four!) Jorge: Sorry po. Ah, sir, kailangan na po ba ito ngayon? (I'm sorry. Uh, sir, do you need this now?)
