He made his first television appearance as he played various characters in Strangebrew,[4] a comedy-reality show television series aired from 2001[5] to 2003.[6] In 2011, he became the main host of the news satire show May Tamang Balita on GMA News TV, and ran for two years. In 2012, he published his book, Bakit Hindi Ka Crush ng Crush Mo?, about a man who began to respect a woman after a makeover. The book was adapted to a film with the same name the next year.[7][8][9] In 2013, he gained popularity among Filipino netizens when he published his YouTube online relationship advice series, Tales from the Friend Zone (TFTFZ).[10]

Bautista also hosted the comedy science programs Science of Stupid on National Geographic, and You Have Been Warned Asia on Discovery Channel.

In 2014, Davao City officials declared him as persona non grata for his derogatory jokes against women from Davao.[11] Among the leaders who expressed disappointment were Sara Duterte and Paolo Duterte.
