Katok Mga Misis! was a talk show of GMA Network, which it was first aired on July 3, 1995 to June 5, 1998. It was hosted by Giovanni Calvo and Ali Sotto with a speaking bird voiced by Bayani Agbayani (who also appears from time to time as Giovanni's chauffeur).
The show features a mix of showbiz entertainment news dished out daily by Giovanni (himself a showbiz writer/editor) and Ali and discussions concerning the lives of Filipino moms and household tips.
Arnell Ignacio joined the show as Ali's co-host in February 1997 after main host Giovanni Calvo left due to some disagreements with the network executives. However, he was able to make a surprise appearance during the show's first anniversary as a gratitude to GMA for giving him a big break on television. Giovanni later produced his own morning talk show "Good Morning Misis" aired on RPN-9 but was later cancelled due to low ratings.
