Knowledge Power is a Philippine television informative show broadcast by ABS-CBN. Hosted by Ernie Baron, it aired from July 5, 1998 to February 28, 2004, and was replaced by Nginiiig!. The program aired every Sunday from 5:30 p.m. to 6:00 p.m, the show is educational and informative even as it also entertains. The topics are highly informative, engaging and mostly out-of-the-ordinary. The program is a cross between Ripley's Believe It or Not! and Discovery Channel. It does not only explore into the bizarre and the extraordinary, but pursues light yet thought-provoking, significant and highly-instructive items. Features sometimes serve as survival tips for viewers. Through extensive research and creative production, the show delves on the sciences, health, history, paranormal, cultures, civilizations, people, among others.
The show aims to educate and entertain. The educational bent of the show is primarily geared towards enhancing children’s outlooks and potentials.
The show's title alludes to the widely quoted statement by Sir Francis Bacon, "Knowledge is power" (from Religious Meditations, Of Heresies 1597).[1]
