ABS-CBN Studios has officially locked in its lineup of programs for 2026, coinciding with the network’s highly anticipated return to Channel 2.
During the recently held “Love, Joy and Hope: The ABS-CBN Christmas Special 2025,” the Kapamilya Network gave viewers a first look at the shows set to premiere in the coming year.
Leading the slate is “Someone, Someday,” a psycho romantic-drama starring Kathryn Bernardo, James Reid, and Maja Salvador.
Also on the lineup is “Love Is Never Gone,” a romantic-drama series headlined by Joshua Garcia and Ivana Alawi. ABS-CBN will also bring back new seasons of its well-loved programs “Maalaala Mo Kaya (MMK),” “Minute To Win It,” and “Kapamilya Deal or No Deal.”
Action fans can also look forward to a new action series starring Richard Gutierrez and Gerald Anderson, while ABS-CBN Studios and iWant TFC are set to collaborate on a new microdrama series, expanding the network’s digital-first storytelling.
These upcoming programs will air on A2Z, Kapamilya Online Live, and Kapamilya Channel, which will now be available on free TV following ABS-CBN’s recently signed licensing agreement with Advanced Media Broadcasting System (AMBS), owned by former lawmaker and business tycoon Manny Villar, the current operator of ALLTV.
With a mix of fresh stories, returning classics, and digital innovations, ABS-CBN’s 2026 lineup signals a strong comeback as it reconnects with free-to-air audiences nationwide.
