Kapamilya fans are getting a new place to watch their favorite ABS-CBN programs starting the new year.

Advanced Media Broadcasting System Inc. (AMBS), the company behind ALLTV, has signed a licensing agreement with ABS-CBN that will allow the Kapamilya Channel to air on ALLTV beginning January 2, 2026.

With the new deal, viewers can catch popular ABS-CBN shows such as FPJ’s Batang Quiapo, Roja, What Lies Beneath, It’s Showtime, ASAP, TV Patrol, and more on ALLTV’s free-to-air platform. Meanwhile, other ABS-CBN programs will continue to air on A2Z, while It’s Showtime and Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Collab 2.0 remain on GMA.

The move follows TV5’s decision to end its content agreement with ABS-CBN effective January 2, 2026. ABS-CBN said it has already settled its obligations with TV5 and MediaQuest in line with their agreements. “We thank Mr. Manny V. Pangilinan and TV5 for providing a home for some ABS-CBN programs since 2021.”

AMBS and ABS-CBN have worked together since 2024, with ALLTV previously airing select Kapamilya programs, including classic shows under the Jeepney TV brand, as well as It’s Showtime and TV Patrol.

ABS-CBN said it will continue focusing on delivering stories, news, and entertainment meant to uplift Filipino families. “Maraming salamat, Kapamilya!”
