Umagang Kay Ganda

The main ingredient in this morning show is audience interaction and participation. In line with this new format, they are airing their show from Club O (formerly Dish) in the ABS-CBN compound to make the show more accessible to the public. The program includes live traffic points from six key points in Metro Manila, as well as occasional regional news.

In some provinces at 6:15 AM, ABS-CBN Regional Network Group would cut this program mid-way (without any notice) to air forty-five minutes of provincial morning programming. Each local morning program, produced by their respective news departments, features news and features related to its target regional audience.

Due to the network's shutdown, these regional programs are now being aired on their respective Facebook pages at 7:00 AM.
