At Home Ka Dito (English:you're at home over here) is a Philippine lifestyle program onABS-CBN. It aired from February 8, 2004, to August 12, 2007. The show is hosted by former Miss Philippines (Universe 1994)Charlene Gonzales-Muhlach with the addition to the show, actress-comedianEugene Domingo andPokwang replacingJoross Gamboa andRoxanne Guinoo.
"BAHAY at BUHAY" was the operative phrase for the show which hadmakeovers as its core component.At Home Ka Dito takes the makeover to the next phase as it marries homemakeover with a life-changingmakeover: a makeover that goes beyond thephysical. The show is funky and serious, fun and emotional — a blend of laughter and tears.
Each episode tells a story about acelebrity needing a makeover of any space in their home (or anyone related to her) and, in return for the space makeover mission that the show will conduct, thecelebrity agrees to do a charitable work for a person who is going through a hard time that the celebrity can relate to or be of assistance.
Charlene Gonzalez anchors the show. Every episode kicks off with Charlene meetingEugene Domingo to discuss the makeover mission for the day. They proceed to the celebrity's place. The teen pair is left to do the makeover with the aid of guest experts (for example,interior designers) and movers. They get to participate in the fun part of makeover activities (craft, carpentry, etc.) and impart practical tips to viewers. As this unfolds in real-time, Charlene tags along with the celebrity to meet the chosen person who needs their help. They go through a step-by-step solution to the chosen person's problem (the range is wide: issues like dealing with teenagepregnancy,sibling rivalry,generation gap, insecurity, coping with the burden of being a breadwinner, etc.). The intercutting follow-through of the progress of the home and life-changing makeovers. This culminates with a series of heart-rending reveals of surprises (mostly of wish-fulfillment related to the needs of the case study ex. Kabuhayan Showcase) for the chosen person as they arrive at a solution. The celebrity is then surprised with the space makeover output and the episode ends on a feel-good note.
