The program was first promoted as a youth program. It was originally several comedy segments. From the start of the 1980s, the whole episode focused on one subject. The show's length was about one hour and it was broadcast live on Thursdays at 4pm; re-runs were shown the following day at 1:30pm.

Due to its quality, and the status of the Israeli Channel 1 as Israel's only channel until 1993, the show became very popular.

Plots of the episodes revolved around different subjects related to life in Israel (for example fishermen and the decreasing water level of the Sea of Galilee, or an episode about the electric company), fads like Folk dancing, tributes to classics like Charlie Chaplin movies, or contemporary series like The Simpsons and Dallas.
