The flagship television station for All TV is DZMV-TV, which carries both the VHF Channel 2 (analog broadcast) and UHF Channel 16 (digital broadcast). In addition to DZMV-TV, the network also operates eight analog television stations and ten digital television stations nationwide; both Channel 2 Manila and all of ABS-CBN Regional stations were previously used by ABS-CBN until its broadcast franchise expired in 2020.[2] All TV operates Mondays to Fridays from 8:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m., Saturdays from 7:30 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. and Sundays from 7:30 a.m. to 11:30 p.m. (PST).
History
In 2019, Advanced Media Broadcasting System (AMBS) was granted a 25-year legislative franchise extension under Republic Act No. 11253 albeit without President Rodrigo Duterte's signature as the bill lapsed into law after 30 days of inaction.[3][4] The Vera family and AMBS president Andrew Santiago sold AMBS to Planet Cable of real estate magnate and businessman-politician Manny Villar.[5][6]
On January 5, 2022, the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC), headed by Gamaliel Cordoba, awarded the frequencies of VHF analog channel 2 and digital channel 16 to AMBS. Furthermore, the channel 2 allocation was given a provisional authority to operate for 18 months until the analog shut-off of the country scheduled in 2023.[7] These channels were previously used by ABS-CBN under the callsign DWWX-TV. The network was shut down due to a cease and desist order from the NTC on May 5, 2020, and the Congress rejected the renewal of its broadcast franchise on July 10, 2020.[8][9]
AMBS Manila began its test broadcast on June 2022.[10] TV host Willie Revillame announced on September 1, 2022 that the TV station of AMBS would be named All TV. Initially slated for October 1 debut,[11] the station made its soft launch on September 13, 2022, at 12 noon, with plans of expanding it nationwide at the soonest possible time, as announced by Revillame.
During his contract signing with AMBS on July 15, 2022, Willie Revillame announced that his variety show Wowowin would air on All TV after its final broadcast on GMA Network on February 11, 2022.[12] Weeks after, other celebrities who signed their contracts with AMBS include actress and TV host Toni Gonzaga and her husband and director Paul Soriano, DZRH broadcaster and former ABS-CBN News anchor Anthony Taberna, singer and actress Ciara Sotto, and TV host Mariel Rodriguez.[13][14][15] A special interview of Toni Gonzaga with President Bongbong Marcos inside the Malacañang Palace was aired on All TV, the same day the network was soft-launched.[16][17]
AMBS also signed their partnership with CNN Philippines for the simultaneous airing of Filipino newscast News Night, which lasted until April 5, 2023.[18] River Where the Moon Rises, Again My Life and From Now On, Showtime! were the first three Korean dramas that aired on All TV.[19][20][21]
Programming
Since February 6, 2023, all the original programs of All TV have been cancelled or put on hiatus due to various reasons.[22][23][24]
In April 2024, AMBS has entered into an airtime lease agreement with ABS-CBN Corporation to broadcast a selected number of current and previous ABS-CBN programs on All TV, including Magandang Buhay and It's Showtime among others.[25][26][27]
Availability
All TV is seen via AMBS' flagship station DZMV-TV Channel 2, digital terrestrial UHF channel 16 in Mega Manila, and thirteen analog and digital regional stations nationwide, some of which were formerly used for ABS-CBN's regional broadcasts. The channel is also attempting to continue their expansion of analog and digital terrestrial televisions in other key provinces as soon as possible.
