At Home with GMA Regional TV was a 2020 Philippine television news broadcasting show broadcast by GMA Davao and GMA Cagayan de Oro. Originally hosted by Rgil Relator, Cyril Chaves and Atty. Resci Rizada, it premiered on June 1, 2020, on the network's morning lineup every Monday to Friday from 8:00 AM to 8:30 AM. The program concluded on January 26, 2024 due to low ratings and decline viewership. Chaves, Kent Abrigana, Abbey Caballero and Krissa Dapitan serve as the final hosts.

Overview[edit]

The show is the first and only unified morning show in Mindanao. It premiered on GMA Davao (Channel 5) and GMA Cagayan de Oro (Channel 35) on June 1, 2020 and with simulcast on TV-4 Dipolog, TV-3 Pagadian, TV-11 Iligan, TV-12 Bukidnon, TV-5 Ozamiz, TV-26 Butuan, TV-10 Surigao, TV-2 Tandag, TV-12 Kidapawan, TV-8 General Santos, TV-12 Cotabato, TV-9 Zamboanga and TV-12 Jolo.[1]

It marked the return of GMA Davao's return on producing morning news programs five years after its predecessor Una Ka BAI went off the air following the strategic streamlining of programs and manpower in its provincial stations.[2] At Home with GMA Regional TV boasts of segments that highlight positive features and stories of people in the entire island of Mindanao.[3]

Starting February 6, 2023, the program shifted from a pre-recorded presentation to a live coverage (although some Spotlight and BizTalk segments are pre-recorded) as part of the rebranding of GMA Regional TV, integrating news reports alongside interviews with personalities all over Mindanao. Co-hosts and news producers Abbey Caballero (Monday, Wednesday and Friday co-host) from GMA General Santos and Krissa Dapitan (Tuesday and Thursday) from GMA Zamboanga joined the show as part of this change.[4]

On August 14, 2023, Davao News Producer Kent Abrigana became the new co-host of this Program, replacing Jandi Esteban. With this move, Cyril Chaves was named as the program's main host.
