 The formula of the show has remained about the same throughout its history - it's broadcast with a live studio audience, with a small team of presenters trading off presenting different segments. These can include interviews or games with celebrity guests, popular music acts, comedy, cartoons, game shows and so on. The formula of the show has remained about the same throughout its history - it's broadcast with a live studio audience, with a small team of presenters trading off presenting different segments.

-The 2015 revival is hosted by young presenters ​Jayce and Kass. The studio is a bombastic amphitheater-like arrangement with three tiers of seating around the main stage, with a large video screen behind the action to show viewers the live feed during sections of the show outside the studio. One of the signature weekly elements of the show is Saturday IZ, a prerecorded section in which young contestants get to play individual games in the [[shows:Industrial Zone]] ​without the potentially adult content that sometimes happens in the main show.+The 2105 revival is hosted by young presenters ​{zchar:​jayceandkass}.

-This was the centrepiece of the Sat-AM Live set before gunge was invented in 2087. It was a large clear cylinder where various guests, contestants,​ volunteers and randomly chosen audience members would be sent during the course of the show, raised off the floor of the set on a platform to give them a VIP-style view of the interviews and games. Alongside whatever regular prize there was, the winner of the last studio game played on a day would get the honour of pulling ​the lever to glop the group inside the jail, pouring ​cascade ​of multicoloured foam-based slime from tanks above the enclosure.+This was the centrepiece of the Sat-AM Live set before gunge was invented in 2087.

 The contestants were spun around slowly under the bottles, with the aim of trying to throw sponge "​fries"​ into coloured baskets around the edge of the game area. Each throw on target would activate the gunge matching the basket'​s colour, so ideally they were meant to time their throws so that someone else was under the gunge tank when it opened. However, in practice nobody cared and tactics mostly eroded in favour of trying to fling as many sponges as possible, giving spectacularly gungy results. The contestants were spun around slowly under the bottles, with the aim of trying to throw sponge "​fries"​ into coloured baskets around the edge of the game area.
