Overview
{{more citations needed section|date=September 2021}}
The show was originally titled Master Showman Presents. It premiered as a late-night variety talk show similar to GMA Supershow in the late 1970s. Master Showman was German Moreno's trademark moniker during his reign as one of television's top hosts in the early 1980s and 1990s, due to his hosting roles in variety shows such as GMA Supershow and That's Entertainment.
When GMA Network decided to make a title out of his famous moniker, Moreno introduced the catchphrase "Walang Tulugan!" ({{translation|no sleeping!}}) during the show. Master Showman originally aired live from the GMA Broadway Centrum in Quezon City, Philippines. When the show moved to GMA Network Center, it ceased its live broadcast and filmed two episodes instead, every other Friday. In 2005, Walang Tulugan was incorporated in the show's title.
On January 8, 2016, Moreno died due to cardiac arrest. A special live tribute episode was filmed at Our Lady of Mount Carmel Shrine, Quezon City on January 9, where Moreno's wake was being held.{{cite web|date=January 12, 2016 |title=Wag nang magbigay ng bulaklak, i-donate na lang sa foundation |url=https://bandera.inquirer.net/112890/112890 |access-date=March 21, 2024 |website=Inquirer Bandera |language=en}}
Actress Nora Aunor, became a temporary main host of the show. Aunor said that she was "willing" to continue the advocacy of Moreno to help establish the careers of young aspirants that wish to join Philippine entertainment industry.{{cite web|url=http://www.gmanetwork.com/news/story/551191/showbiz/chikaminute/nora-aunor-handang-ipagpatuloy-ang-walang-tulugan-para-kay-kuya-germs |title=Nora Aunor, handang ipagpatuloy ang Walang Tulugan para kay Kuya Germs |date=January 14, 2016 |website=GMA Network}} The show aired its final episode on February 13, 2016.
