It aired for 16 weeks from 31 August to 14 December 1996, preceded by the Summer 1996 run of Scratchy & Co. and followed by the spring 1997 run of the same show. The presenters of WOW! were Simeon Courtie (previously of CBBC) and Sophie Aldred (a former Doctor Who star). The programme was broadcast from The Maidstone Studios in Maidstone, Kent, also home over the years to shows such as No. 73, Motormouth, and Holly & Stephen's Saturday Showdown. (On one occasion, a power issue in the studio meant that part of the episode was an outside broadcast from the studio car park.) The programme was produced by The Media Merchants in association with Meridian Television for ITV. The show was a live, anarchic, entertainment magazine similar to Tiswas or Motormouth. It featured imported cartoons, guest interviews and music performances, games and competitions, and comedy. Comic characters featured within the show included the 'Tea Ladies' - played by male actors Peter Cocks and Woody Taylor - supposedly 'interrupting' the show to provide banter and bicker with the guests; and Sidney the Fly (A British Bluebottle) , a puppet arachnid voiced by Phil Cornwell. The show was dropped after a single run, and the following autumn, ITV aired the series Tricky.

It aired between 11.00am and 11.30am on Saturdays and sat between WOW! and The Chart Show in the schedule. Like The Chart Show, it was focused on music; however, whereas The Chart Show was based principally on videos, The Noise featured live in-studio performances, interviews and features. It was presented and produced by Andi Peters, who had recently left CBBC and been put in charge of music and youth programming at LWT. The show was made by LWT from the London Studios on the south-bank and featured a variety of guests from across the musical spectrum. It performed poorly in the ratings and did not continue beyond its sole series; however, a special episode entitled "The Noise: Boyzone in Brazil" was produced and broadcast in 1997, the special was due to be broadcast on 6th September but was postponed due to an alternative schedule being used after the funeral of Diana, Princess of Wales and was transmitted on 4th October instead. Two years later, ITV would go on to replace The Chart Show with a studio-based music performance series, UK, to significantly greater success. Andi Peters later left LWT to join Channel 4, where he developed the T4 youth strand. The week before both WOW! and The Noise began on CITV, Andi Peters appeared on the last episode of Series 2 of Scratchy & Co. to promote The Noise starting the following week (with no mention about WOW!).
