John en Shirley is a sitcom aired weekly on ABS-CBN. The show was a spin-off from the original "John En Marsha", which was the longest-running prime-time comedy sitcom in television history. Some of the original cast were Dolphy (as John Puruntong), Nida Blanca† (as Marsha Puruntong), Dely Atay-atayan† (as Doña Dehlila), Maricel Soriano (as Shirley Puruntong) and Rolly Quizon (as Rolly). The show was originally shown on the pre-Marcos ABS-CBN. After ABS-CBN was forced to cease its operations, the show transferred to Radio Philippines Network (RPN). The show remained there even after ABS-CBN reopened in February 1986. Finally, the show went off air on 1990.

On 2006, the classic 60's sitcom was revived on ABS-CBN under the new title, "John En Shirley" (John, "En" for Encarnacion, Shirley). Dolphy and Maricel were the only ones remained from the original cast. One of the original cast members made a guest appearance on the show. Evelyn Bontogon as Matutina, made an appearance on one of the episodes.
