John Lapus summons the goddess in him as he tries to outclass Jon and Candy for the right to assume Anne Curtis's Dyosa stature as seen on ABS-CBN's primetime series.

Special guest Pokwang (in photo) takes on Ruffa Gutierrez's bitchy Daniella character in the primetime soap I Love Betty La Fea. Candy Pangilinan, who plays Betty, earned Daniella's hilarious wrath that evening.

From Ruffa to Annabelle Rama: Pokwang this time impersonates the feisty Gutierrez matriarch. It can be recalled that Annabelle lambasted Pokwang for making fun of her sons—Richard and Raymond—in a previous comedy show. During a press conference prepared by ABS-CBN to promote Da Spooftacular Showdown, director Phillip Lazaro stressed that the punch lines prepared were not sanitized just for the sake of avoiding the possible ire of the subjects.

John Lapus once again dons the character of Kris Anino—a parody of game show host and good friend Kris Aquino. The audience laughed their hearts out as John effectively copied and exaggerated Kris's mannerisms and actions for maximum effect.

In a conversation with PEP (Philippine Entertainment Portal) weeks before the show, Jon mentioned that the writers of the show deliberately avoided inserting political jokes. "Let's just wait for 2010 for that," said Jon pertaining to the upcoming national elections. Jon was part of 2007's comedy show Rock Da Vote—a comedy show staged every election period where stand up comedians perform to lampoon political figures.

Candy Pangilinan tries her utmost best to clinch the Dyosa honor by animatedly stating her case as to why she should be chosen by Bathala over John and Jon.

Candy reportedly earned the ire of the Noranians for impersonating their idol, Nora Aunor. Despite the controversy, Candy remained professional all throughout and delivered the role as instructed by direk Phillip.

Da Spooftacular Showdown introduced new characters like Candy's impersonation of the bespectacled ugly-duckling Betty La Fea. Candy brought the house down when she retorted, "Siguro batchmate kita," to a heckler inside the venue.

Candy wears a pensive expression during the opening number signaling the start of Da Spooftacular Showdown.

John Lapus displays his best beauty queen form as he impersonates 2008 Bb. Pilipinas-Miss World Janina San Miguel. John's effectively brought to life Janina's personality as displayed during the question-and-answer segment of the pageant.

Ate Vi as portrayed by Jon Santos willingly accepts the challenge to down a few glasses of milk. The skit was a parody of Vilma Santos's recent commercial for a popular milk brand.

Okra Winfrey (Jon Santos) takes sensational young singer Charos Pempengco (Candy Pangilinan) by the hand. Take note of Jon's overall appearance as inspired by the popular American talk show host.

"Ang taray!" shouted one audience upon seeing John's facial expression at the opening number. John once more exhibited daredevil dance moves now popularly labeled as the "Buwis Buhay" dance number.

Da Spooftacular Showdown aims to offer a breather as what Jon proudly enthused: "E, kasi nga daw nakaka-aburido ang mga news sa pahayagan. Mag-break muna tayo for two hours man lang at mag-relax at magtawanan sandal tapos mas madali tayong magkaroon ng relief, comic relief, para tuloy ang buhay, hindi tayo masyadong nasa-sad."
