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]
AMBS Manila began its test broadcast in 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 an 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] Gonzaga's special interview with President Bongbong Marcos inside the Malacañang Palace was aired on All TV, the same day the network was soft-launched.[16][17]
In April 2024, AMBS entered into an acquired agreement with ABS-CBN Corporation to broadcast a selected number of current and previous ABS-CBN programs on All TV.[22][23][24][25] The channel is also simulcasting the new version of Goin' Bulilit.[26][27]
All TV is seen via AMBS' flagship station DZMV-TV Channel 2, digital terrestrial UHF channel 16 in Mega Manila, and fifteen analog and eleven digital regional stations nationwide. The channel is also attempting to continue its expansion of analog and digital terrestrial televisions in other key provinces as soon as possible.
