Ang Dating Doon (English: The Formerly There) is a popular recurring segment on GMA Network's gag show, Bubble Gang from 1998 to 1999. It was briefly revived in 2001 and 2005. The show experienced a resurfacing in the late 2011 and is broadcast once a month. It is a parody of the religious television program Ang Dating Daan (English: The Old Path), which is produced by the Members Church of God International. Comically it used the opening theme of the anime ChÅdenji Machine Voltes V, "Voltes V no Uta," as both its opening and closing song. It was of perfect timing, since it was an ingenious way of promoting Voltes V for the network.
