TV Patrol premiered on March 2, 1987, at 6:00 p.m. PHT, replacing Balita Ngayon, with Noli de Castro, Mel Tiangco, and Robert Arevalo as the original anchors.{{cite news |author1=Tan, Michael. |title='TV Patrol' |url=https://www.pressreader.com/philippines/philippine-daily-inquirer-1109/20120727/281741266548386 |access-date=July 27, 2020 |publisher=Press Reader |date=July 27, 2012 |archive-date=July 27, 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200727055538/https://www.pressreader.com/philippines/philippine-daily-inquirer-1109/20120727/281741266548386 |url-status=live }} Segment anchors included Ernie Baron, who served as the newscast's chief meteorologist and provided viewers trivia pertaining to science and history, and actress-personality Angelique Lazo who first hosted Star News, an entertainment news segment.{{Cite web|url=https://news.abs-cbn.com/current-affairs-programs/03/02/12/tv-patrol-turns-25|title=TV Patrol turns 25|website=ABS-CBN News|access-date=September 24, 2019|archive-date=September 24, 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190924182727/https://news.abs-cbn.com/current-affairs-programs/03/02/12/tv-patrol-turns-25|url-status=live}}{{Cite web|url=https://news.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/04/07/12/star-patrollers-join-dumauals-25th-wedding-anniversary|title=Star Patrollers join Dumauals' 25th wedding anniversary|website=ABS-CBN News|access-date=September 24, 2019|archive-date=September 24, 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190924182717/https://news.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/04/07/12/star-patrollers-join-dumauals-25th-wedding-anniversary|url-status=live}} However, on June 1, 1987, Arevalo left the newscast and was replaced by Frankie Evangelista, who served as a segment host for "PULSO: Pangkalahatang Ugnayan Laan sa Opinyon" ({{translation|Overall Correlation Reserved for Opinions|literal=yes}}).

With the introduction of international broadcasts in 1989 to the Pacific islands of Guam and Saipan, and later with the birth of TFC on September 24, 1994, TV Patrol became the first Philippine newscast and program to broadcast overseas.

In 1993, Christine Bersola joined as the segment host of Star News segment, replaced Angelique Lazo, until 1996. In 1995, Korina Sanchez replaced Mel Tiangco who left the network and transferred to GMA Network.

On April 1, 1996, de Castro became the sole anchor of the newscast, replacing Sanchez and Evangelista, and reduced its airtime to 30 minutes. On January 4, 1999, the newscast returned its airtime to 1 hour. On February 14, 2000, TV Patrol started its simulcast over AM radio stations DZMM (Metro Manila), DYAB-AM (Cebu), and DXAB-AM (Davao) and began its online presence through the ABS-CBN News website. On February 12, 2001, de Castro left the newscast, in order to run for Senator in the 2001 elections.{{cite book |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=Gn42AAAAIBAJ&dq=noli+de+castro+tv+patrol&pg=PA13&article_id=655,20919046 |title=Noli running for Senate with ABS backing |date=February 13, 2001 |publisher=Philippine Daily Inquirer |publication-date=February 13, 2001 |access-date=August 24, 2024}} Henry Omaga-Diaz temporarily replaced de Castro the day after.

On March 12, 2001, former Balitang K anchor Korina Sanchez returned to primetime newscast after she left the show in 1996, together with Aljo Bendijo, joining Omaga-Diaz, taking over the anchor chair vacated by de Castro.{{Cite book |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=sKU2AAAAIBAJ&dq=Tv+patrol+noli+de+castro+2001&pg=PA21&article_id=519,21866412 |title=Kris taking over 'Balitang K' slot |date=March 3, 2001 |publisher=Philippine Daily Inquirer |publication-date=March 3, 2001 |access-date=August 24, 2024}} Marc Logan and Tina Monzon-Palma were hired to become the news reader of trivial segments and features. Pinky Webb, Erwin Tulfo and Ces Drilon were assigned as the substitute anchors of the newscast.

On April 21, 2003, TV Patrol relaunched its studio set (also shared with ABS-CBN Insider and News Central on the Studio 23), news desk, and graphics, along with the theme music & a silhouetted OBB. Julius Babao replaced Bendijo and Omaga-Diaz after several changes in the anchor chair. In the same year, TV Patrol also simulcasted on ABS-CBN's UHF station Studio 23 for several months. In March 2004, Babao later joined Sanchez at the news studio, after broadcasting from Studio 7. The newscast was expanded to 90 minutes. Aside from its reformat, TV Patrol adopted the ABS-CBN News 2004 slogan "Subok na Maaasahan" ({{translation|Proven to be Reliable|literal=yes}}). In September 2004, the ratings of TV Patrol started to decline, due to competition with rival GMA's primetime newscast 24 Oras. Thus, the ABS-CBN management decided to relaunch TV Patrol before the end of 2004.

On November 19, Sanchez left the newscast for the second time to make way for the network's new relaunched newscast as TV Patrol World.

=2004–2010: ''TV Patrol World''=

On November 22, 2004, the program was relaunched as TV Patrol World to give weight to reports from Filipino communities worldwide. Julius Babao was joined by Ted Failon and Karen Davila as its main anchors, replacing Korina Sanchez. while special segments are anchored by Ernie Baron, Phoemela Baranda, Marc Logan and Bernadette Sembrano (where she colleague of Karen Davila in GMA), respectively. Baron died of heart attack on January 23, 2006, and months later, he was replaced by Kim Atienza as the newscast's resident weatherman.

On April 8, 2005, TV Patrol World aired a special edition as a conclusion to ABS-CBN's all-afternoon live coverage of the burial of Pope John Paul II, dubbed as "Paalam Ama Mula Sa Bayang Minahal Mo" ({{translation|"Goodbye Pope, from the Country you Loved"}}). Erwin Tulfo, Korina Sanchez, and Dong Puno anchored live from the ABS-CBN Newscenter in Quezon City, as Julius Babao and Karen Davila joined Lynda Jumilla live from the Vatican City. Mari Kaimo, Bernadette Sembrano and Henry Omaga-Diaz reported from the Papal memorial in Rizal Park, Manila.

On June 5, 2006, TV Patrol World updated its logo design, soundtrack, opening billboard, and graphics but the news format remained the same. In January 2007, TV Patrol World started to celebrate its 20th anniversary by launching Boto Mo, I-Patrol Mo!, an expansion of the citizen journalism segment Citizen Patrol for the upcoming 2007 midterm elections. On April 12, 2007, TV Patrol World began their simulcast on DZMM TeleRadyo, the then newly launched sister cable television channel of DZMM.

On November 25, 2007, ABS-CBN aired a documentary special for TV Patrol's 20th anniversary entitled TV Patrol World: 20 Taon ng Pagpapatrol ({{translation|TV Patrol World: 20 Years of Patrolling|literal=yes}}). It was produced by ABS-CBN and Jesuit Communications.

A few days after the documentary was aired, on November 29, 2007. TV Patrol World morphed into News Patrol Special Edition covering the events surrounding the Manila Peninsula siege. Anchored by Ted Failon and Korina Sanchez as part of the special ABS-CBN coverage of the rebellion during the day, the edition shocked millions as it featured live the last few hours of the rebellion, including the arrest of ABS-CBN journalist Ces Oreña-Drilon and scores of local and foreign media personalities by the Philippine military for allegedly conspiring with the rebellion perpetrators.

On March 31, 2008, TV Patrol World unveiled its new set, graphics (with the same red, green, and blue hues identified with the ABS-CBN logo), opening billboard, and new segments, but it retained some of its old segments. The new look is accompanied by slight changes in Patrol's segments, particularly Citizen Patrol, and the introduction of Hulog ng Langit, which was specially anchored by Bernadette Sembrano. The same year, Boto Mo, I-Patrol Mo temporarily became Bayan Mo, I-Patrol Mo. During this period, the newscast held the highest nationwide TV ratings record since Taylon Nelson Sofres (TNS) started conducting its nationwide TV ratings survey when its April 16, 2009 edition of the newscast featured the developing story of the tragedy involving the wife of Failon. This tragedy was the reason of Failon's leave that lasted until June 2009.

On May 11, 2009, a year before the 2010 elections, TV Patrol World relaunched Boto Mo, I-Patrol Mo with the battlecry, Ako Ang Simula ({{translation|It Begins With Me}}).

On August 5, 2009, TV Patrol World had its longest broadcast in history that time as it covered the interment of former President Corazon Aquino the Manila Memorial Park in Parañaque. Lasting from 6:25 to 9:00pm, the edition was the most widely watched show in Mega Manila and nationwide on that day as cited by TNS and AGB.

From 2009 to December 2010, TV Patrol covered the 2010 national and barangay and Sangguiniang Kabataan elections, as well as the presidential transition from Gloria Macapagal Arroyo to Benigno Aquino III and of barangay and SK officials. In response to the first automation of the election in the country, ABS-CBN utilized a technology from Orad Hi Tech Systems Ltd. that utilizes the principles of augmented reality.{{cite news |last=Sanchez |first=Rowena Joy |title=TV networks war over holograms and virtual presence |url=http://www.mb.com.ph/articles/257307/tv-networks-war-over-holograms-and-virtual-presence |newspaper=Manila Bulletin |date=May 14, 2010 |access-date=July 2, 2012}} The technology uses real-time image processing system for live broadcasts of 3D computer-generated imagery against a real set or background. ABS-CBN also utilized what was probably the biggest touch screen display to be used in a Philippine television show. A new set dubbed as the "WAR" (Wireless Audience Response) room was specifically designed for the said election coverage. The coverage of ABS-CBN became the third top trending topic worldwide on the social networking site Twitter. STI College and ABS-CBN have also rolled up for the 2010 SK and barangay elections.{{cite web |last=Almo |first=Nerisa |title=ABS-CBN encourages Filipinos to be citizen journalists |url=http://www.pep.ph/guide/guide/6036/abs-cbn-encourages-filipinos-to-be-citizen-journalists |website=Philippine Entertainment Portal |date=May 8, 2010 |access-date=July 2, 2012 |archive-date=March 6, 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160306032257/http://www.pep.ph/guide/guide/6036/abs-cbn-encourages-filipinos-to-be-citizen-journalists |url-status=dead}}{{cite news |last=Chui |first=Angie |url=http://www.mb.com.ph/node/259304/ab |title=ABS-CBN, partners make milestone in poll coverage |newspaper=The Manila Bulletin |date=May 27, 2012 |access-date=August 19, 2012}}{{cite news |url=http://www.abs-cbnnews.com/anc/05/10/10/anc-taps-social-media-halalan-2010 |title=ANC taps social media halalan 2010 |publisher=ABS-CBN News and Current Affairs |date=May 10, 2010 |access-date=August 19, 2012}}{{cite web |title=STI, ABS-CBN roll up their sleeves again for the 2010 Barangay and SK elections|url=https://www.sti.edu/newsarticledetail1.asp?i=MTYw&p=c3RpX2Fic19jYm5fcm9sbF91cF90aGVpcl9zbGVldmVzX2FnYWluX2Zvcl90aGVfMjAxMF9iYXJhbmdheV9hbmRfc2tfZWxlY3Rpb25z |publisher=STI College|date=October 26, 2010 |access-date=October 21, 2024}}

{{further|Shutdown of ABS-CBN broadcasting}}

On June 30, 2010, TV Patrol World reverted to the original debut title (TV Patrol) and introduced their first main website, and also launched its Facebook and Twitter pages. Failon, Davila, and Babao were retained as anchors for the weeknight editions, with Davila and Babao until November 3, 2010. Phoemela Baranda was also retained as the Star Patrol segment anchor until November 5.

On August 23, 2010, TV Patrol covered the Manila hostage crisis with the longest telecast up to that point, lasting about three and a half hours from 6:25 to 10:00 pm, with a separate second edition airing in the aftermath of the crisis from 9:00 pm. The August 23 edition drew flak from various concerned viewers making ABS-CBN News revise its Code of Ethics. It eventually got a Finalist nod in the 2011 New York Festivals.{{cite news|url=https://www.philstar.com/entertainment/2011/04/15/676272/abs-cbn-winner-ny-fest|title=ABS-CBN winner at NY fest|publisher=The Philippine Star|date=April 15, 2011|accessdate=February 23, 2025}}

On October 4, 2010, a new program segment, Winner sa Life! with Winnie Cordero was launched with reports on lifestyle and tips on proper living.

On November 3, 2010, ABS-CBN announced the return of veteran former anchors Noli de Castro and Korina Sanchez as weeknight anchors of TV Patrol, replacing Karen Davila and Julius Babao (as they would transfer to Bandila later that month); they joined Ted Failon on November 8. On the same day, Gretchen Fullido replaced Phoemela Baranda as the Star Patrol anchor.

In February 2011, TV Patrol launched its weekday text poll, the first in Philippine television news history, where texters can agree or disagree on the current issues being broadcast in the program. The text poll happens from Monday to Thursday but was soon expanded to Fridays. Before the end of the newscast, the three anchors give their opinions about the result of the text poll, similar to the PULSO segment popularized when the late Frankie Evangelista and Mel Tiangco were still part of the anchor team with Noli de Castro. Later, new patriotic segments like Panalo 'To! ({{translation|It's a Winner!|link=yes}}) and Lakas ng Pinoy ({{translation|Pinoy's Strength|link=yes}}) debuted in April of the same year.

To celebrate TV Patrol's 25th anniversary from 2012 to 2013, TV Patrol reformatted its graphics and introduced a new logo (still using the "ribbons" theme) and new opening titles (featuring the logos of the past and the present) on March 5, 2012. A retrospective segment was also added to commemorate the best events covered during the first 25 years. On April 2, 2012, the newly improved weather graphics and reporting (ABS-CBN Weather Center; in a nod to earlier reports in the past) was launched, including a five-day forecast.

Commemorative activities include TV Patrol 25 marker openings in various parts of the country to honor the many important events marked in the first 25 years and a fund-raising drive aimed at giving back to those who became part of the news coverages through the years. A new segment, CCTV (Concerned Citizens Taking Videos) Patrol, was launched on June 25, 2012, aimed at citizen journalism and even utilizing CCTV footage and even cellphone footage from the public to convey the latest local news events.

On July 29, 2012, a documentary special entitled Mga Nagbabagang Balita: 25 Taon ng TV Patrol (transl. The Breaking News: 25 Years of TV Patrol) was aired in celebration of its 25th anniversary. It was replayed on August 12.

On July 29, 2013, TV Patrol, alongside Bandila, reformatted their logo, opening titles, and graphics. The redesigned logo is still based on the "ribbons" theme, although more simplified. A new set was also seen with a brighter flooring and background. The program dropped the '25' on its official logo, and new segment icons debuted. However, the Kabayan Special Patrol segment icon stayed the same.

In March 2014, TV Patrol launched an all-new program segment, ABS-CBN News Investigative Reports, debuting in March of the same year, giving viewers nationwide insight into various societal scandals and problems. Henry Omaga-Diaz, Gigi Grande, and Raffy Santos usually filled their investigative reports in this segment.

On August 3, 2015, former TV Patrol Weekend anchor Bernadette Sembrano permanently replaced Sanchez, who left the newscast for the last time to pursue her masteral degree at Ateneo de Manila University and London School of Economics.{{cite news |url=https://entertainment.inquirer.net/168037/was-korina-sanchez-fired-from-tv-patrol|title=Was Korina Sanchez fired from 'TV Patrol?' |newspaper=INQUIRER.net |date=April 17, 2015 |accessdate=April 17, 2015}}

On March 2, 2017, TV Patrol celebrated its 30th anniversary through a live newscast in its studio in Quezon City and its sister stations in Tacloban and Zamboanga City. Sembrano was situated at the ABS-CBN studio in Quezon City, while Failon was in Tacloban and de Castro in Zamboanga.

On August 24, 2017, the show featured celebrities as "Star Patrol" guest anchors, a segment that has been returned after quite some time. Yassi Pressman, Toni Gonzaga, Bela Padilla, Kim Chiu, Bianca Gonzalez, Erich Gonzales, Kylie Verzosa, Mariel de León, Janella Salvador, Aiko Melendez, Karylle, Karla Estrada, Anne Curtis, and Angel Locsin filled in the slot of Fullido occasionally. Earlier in 2015, actresses Yam Concepcion and Loren Burgos, and athlete Gretchen Ho took the helm as pinch-hitters for the segment.{{cite news|url=https://news.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/05/15/15/why-tv-patrol-viewers-praised-yam-concepcion|title=Why 'TV Patrol' viewers praised Yam Concepcion|website=ABS-CBN News|access-date=September 24, 2019|archive-date=September 24, 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190924182748/https://news.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/05/15/15/why-tv-patrol-viewers-praised-yam-concepcion|url-status=live}}{{cite web|url=https://www.instagram.com/p/6EOjNQzbMA/ |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/iarchive/s/instagram/6EOjNQzbMA |archive-date=December 26, 2021 |url-access=registration|title=Loren Burgos on Instagram: "Thanks again @tvpatrolabscbn2 @abscbnnews for choosing me as a guest presenter on Star Patrol! 😄 Blessed to have met and worked with these..."|website=Instagram}}{{cbignore}}{{Cite web|url=https://news.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/09/18/15/watch-gretchen-hos-tv-patrol-debut|title=LOOK: Gretchen Ho's TV Patrol debut|website=ABS-CBN News|access-date=September 24, 2019|archive-date=September 24, 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190924182720/https://news.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/09/18/15/watch-gretchen-hos-tv-patrol-debut|url-status=live}}

On April 2, 2018, TV Patrol began broadcasting in high definition.

On March 17, 2020, TV Patrol began to air on a late-night timeslot (as a replay), temporarily replacing the timeslot of late-night newscast Bandila due to the enhanced community quarantine in Luzon caused by the COVID-19 pandemic in the Philippines. On the same day, it began to simulcast on the network's 24-hour news channel, ANC. The decision to adopt late night replays led to yet another adjustment, with the telecast frequently extending their airtime to at least two hours. This led to a shift in Primetime Bida's schedule during the enhanced community quarantine.

In April 2020, sign language interpreters were added to the broadcast.

On May 5, 2020, TV Patrol was the last program to be aired on ABS-CBN, MOR, and S+A before they signed-off indefinitely that night (DZMM and its television counterpart, TeleRadyo, also aired this edition of the newscast but signed off together at 8:20 p.m. PHT following the newscast's lead-out program S.R.O.: Suhestyon, Reaksyon at Opinyon), following the cease-and-desist order of the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) to close the free TV and radio broadcasting operations of ABS-CBN as the network's broadcasting franchise expired the day before. This edition focused on such cease-and-desist order and also aired without commercial breaks.{{cite AV media |date=May 5, 2020 |title=TV Patrol (5 May 2020) ABS-CBN signing off|language=fil |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e9esMut-p3c |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211221/e9esMut-p3c |archive-date=2021-12-21 |url-status=live|author=ABS-CBN News |website=YouTube}}{{cbignore}}

TV Patrol airtime was shortened from 110 minutes to 90 minutes during this period. Kapamilya Channel took over production of the newscasts from July 27 onwards.

On August 31, 2020, Ted Failon made his final appearance on the newscast through Zoom as he left the network as part of its retrenchment program;{{cite news|url=https://news.abs-cbn.com/news/08/30/20/read-abs-cbn-statement-on-ted-failon-parting-ways-with-the-network|title=READ: ABS-CBN Statement on Ted Failon parting ways with the network|work=ABS-CBN News|date=August 30, 2020|access-date=August 30, 2020|archive-date=August 30, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200830071901/https://news.abs-cbn.com/news/08/30/20/read-abs-cbn-statement-on-ted-failon-parting-ways-with-the-network|url-status=live}}{{cite AV media |date=August 31, 2020 |title=Replay: TV Patrol livestream |language=fil |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HOEGgmZiNvw |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211221/HOEGgmZiNvw |archive-date=2021-12-21 |url-status=live|access-date=August 31, 2020 }}{{cbignore}} The departure of Failon also led the August 31 edition to end with the song "Tinig ng mga Nawalan" (English: Voice of the Lost), sung by Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla in support for the retrenched employees.

The newscast temporarily aired live from an outdoor area within the ABS-CBN premises, while Fullido and Atienza were seen via Zoom, instead of the regular news studio.

After a brief time in the mid-1980s and 1990s, TV Patrol first aired on weekends as an occasional special broadcast. Its first weekend broadcast in September 2001 featured news about the American–Afghan battle during the War in Afghanistan and also covered the September 11 attacks. It also covered the Oakwood mutiny on July 27, 2003, and the network's coverage of former U.S. President George W. Bush's state visit to the Philippines on October 18, 2003. The weekend edition was anchored by veteran broadcasters Mari Kaimo, Pia Hontiveros and Erwin Tulfo.

The weekend editions premiered on Saturday edition newscast program of TV Patrol Sabado premiered on February 14, 2004 at 6:00 p.m. PHT on the network's Saturday and Sunday evening line-up replacing Buttercup, while the Sunday edition newscast program of TV Patrol Linggo premiered on May 9, 2004 of the same time at 6:00 p.m. PHT on the eve of the 2004 elections that is covered by ABS-CBN as Halalan 2004.{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=acs5fFAXdjc|title=BALIKAN: 19 taon ng 'TV Patrol Weekend' - YouTube|website=YouTube |date=February 19, 2023 }} Henry Omaga-Diaz and Ces Drilon served as the first anchors of both weekend editions. At the beginning, both editions were complemented by The Weekend News as ABS-CBN's weekend newscasts, with TV Patrol Sabado and TV Patrol Linggo as early-evening newscast and The Weekend News as late-night newscast until it was cancelled more than a year later. During this period, the weekend editions used to occupy middle evening time slots between 8:00 and 10:00 p.m. PHT. It also shared identical title card, opening theme, and graphics with the then-TV Patrol World.

On June 18, 2005, Bernadette Sembrano replaced Drilon, who left the weekend edition for ABS-CBN Insider. On July 8, 2006, Alex Santos replaced Omaga-Diaz, who left the weekend edition for Bandila.

On July 3, 2010, three days after the revamp of the regular edition, the two weekend editions were merged into TV Patrol Weekend.

On November 26, 2011, Sembrano and Santos were replaced by Pinky Webb and Alvin Elchico.{{cite web|url=http://www.abs-cbn.com/Feature/Article/10515/Pinky-Webb-and-Alvin-El-Chico-anchor-all-new-TV-Patrol-Weekend-.aspx|title=Pinky Webb and Alvin Elchico anchor all-new TV Patrol Weekend|access-date=November 28, 2011|website=ABS-CBN.com|archive-date=November 27, 2011|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111127100748/http://www.abs-cbn.com/Feature/Article/10515/Pinky-Webb-and-Alvin-El-Chico-anchor-all-new-TV-Patrol-Weekend-.aspx|url-status=live}} The newscast also had an earlier timeslot of 5:00 p.m. every Saturday.

The broadcast's return to DZMM TeleRadyo was the first to be aired there after ten years of absence.

On May 9, 2020, the weekend edition began to be aired in Cine Mo! after ABS-CBN and DZMM went off-air on May 5, 2020, due to cease-and-desist order from the National Telecommunications Commission after its franchise expired on May 4, 2020, while on TeleRadyo it began to broadcast on Saturdays. The newscast also extended its broadcast time to 50 minutes, and later on to a full hour.

On August 1, 2020, the weekend edition began airing on Kapamilya Channel. On October 31, 2020, the weekend edition expanded its airtime from 45 minutes to an hour. On January 1, 2022, the weekend edition returned on free-to-air television via simulcast on A2Z. On June 17, 2023, following programming changes on Kapamilya Channel and A2Z, the newscast reduced its airtime to 45 minutes and returned to a timeslot of 5:30 p.m. to 6:15 p.m. PHT.

The broadcast of the weekend edition returned to AM radio via DWPM (now DZMM) on July 1, 2023. It was also carried over to TeleRadyo Serbisyo that same day. The broadcast of the weekend edition returned to channels 2 and 16 in Mega Manila (and eventually to other regional stations also previously held by ABS-CBN) via All TV on April 20, 2024.{{Cite news |date=April 13, 2024 |title='TV Patrol' to air on ALLTV beginning April 15 |url=https://news.abs-cbn.com/news/2024/4/13/-tv-patrol-to-air-on-alltv-beginning-april-15-1429 |access-date=April 14, 2024 |work=ABS-CBN News}} The free-to-air broadcast on TeleRadyo Serbisyo resumed via Prime TV on June 1, 2024.

On March 9, its Sunday edition was shortened to 45 minutes due to schedule changes.

On May 31, TV Patrol Weekend started to simulcast on DZMM Radyo Patrol 630 and DZMM TeleRadyo for the first time in five years since their shutdown in 2020.

News Patrol is a Philippine television news broadcasting show broadcast by ABS-CBN, ANC and Kapamilya Channel. It aired from September 5, 2005 to present, replacing ABS-CBN News Advisory. It also served as the main newscast for Kapamilya Channel from June 15 to July 24, 2020, temporarily replacing TV Patrol at the former ABS-CBN timeslot.

=Airing history=

==As an hourly news bulletin==

News Patrol premiered in 2005 as a news segment of the morning show Magandang Umaga, Bayan. The news bulletin was reformatted into ABS-CBN's news bulletin, replacing ABS-CBN News Advisory on September 5, 2005.

In 2006, it became the first Philippine news program to broadcast the victory of the First Philippine Mount Everest Expedition.

On April 1, 2018, News Patrol switched to high definition format, along with other network's main channel news programs.

On April 9, 2020, News Patrol aired its special coverage of the COVID-19 pandemic during the Paschal Triduum of the Holy Week as an evening newscast.

On May 5, 2020, News Patrol aired its last bulletin on ABS-CBN after the network was forced to cease and desist its free TV broadcasting operations given by the order of the NTC due to the expiration of the network's legislative franchise to operate the day before.{{cite web|title=ABS-CBN to go off air in compliance with NTC order|url=https://news.abs-cbn.com/news/05/05/20/abs-cbn-to-go-off-air-in-compliance-with-ntc-order|website=ABS-CBN News|access-date=May 5, 2020}}

On May 8, 2020, the news bulletin migrated to TeleRadyo, The Filipino Channel, and social media platforms such as Facebook, YouTube, and iWantTFC. Some regional newscasts also began to air live on their respective Facebook pages the following day.

On October 9, 2021, Pia Gutierrez left the Saturday News Patrol bulletins for The World Tonight. She was replaced by Willard Cheng in November 2021.

On June 20, 2022, News Patrol alternately aired on A2Z in lieu of the ZOE-produced Ulat A2Z, which is broadcast every weekday afternoon, marking its return to free-to-air television after two years.

On December 2, 2024, News Patrol started airing on ANC.

==As a primetime newscast==

On June 15, 2020, News Patrol returned via Kapamilya Channel as a temporary 30-minute primetime newscast instead of airing the two-hour newscast TV Patrol which airs on ANC, TeleRadyo and Cine Mo!.{{cite web|title= Guide: Everything airing on Kapamilya Channel starting June 13|url=https://news.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/06/12/20/guide-everything-airing-on-kapamilya-channel-starting-june-13|website=ABS-CBN News|access-date=June 12, 2020}} ANC and former S+A news presenter Denice Dinsay anchored the primetime newscast. However, the primetime newscast ended shortly on July 24 as TV Patrol began its broadcast on Kapamilya Channel on July 27.{{cite web|title='TV Patrol,' 'The World Tonight' to air on Kapamilya Channel|url=https://www.rappler.com/entertainment/series/tv-patrol-the-world-tonight-airs-kapamilya-channel|website=Rappler|date=July 25, 2020 |access-date=July 25, 2020}} News Patrol was then reverted to an hourly news bulletin of the said channel on the same day.

Regional editions

From 1988 to 2020, the regional editions of the newscast that are delivered in other Philippine languages, collectively credited as TV Patrol Regional, were broadcast on all ABS-CBN Regional stations nationwide, with simulcast on the network's four provincial Radyo Patrol AM Radio stations, DYAB TeleRadyo Cebu and selected MOR FM radio stations.

All regional editions aired in the late afternoon until ABS-CBN ceased free TV and radio operations on May 5, 2020, with selected editions simulcast over The Filipino Channel for overseas viewers. Several newscasts were also aired nationwide from August 2016 to January 2018 on the ABS-CBN Regional Channel via Sky Cable, Destiny Cable, and Sky Direct. The ABS-CBN Regional YouTube page also includes archived videos of past editions for those who have not watched the program as well as for overseas viewers.

On May 8, 2020, the regional editions resumed broadcasts through their respective Facebook pages and the ABS-CBN Regional YouTube channel. However, on July 15, ABS-CBN announced that the company would go into retrenchment on August 31 in light of the denial of its bid for a legislative franchise, laying-off much of its employees. It was further revealed on July 17, during an interview on Failon Ngayon sa TeleRadyo that the regional division of ABS-CBN News would fold after regular business hours on the said retrenchment date. Included in the shutdown is the halt of all its regional programs and their respective TV Patrol editions with their last broadcasts aired on August 28, 2020.{{cite news |url=https://news.abs-cbn.com/life/08/26/20/12-regional-tv-patrol-programs-to-air-final-newscasts-on-august-28|title=12 regional 'TV Patrol' programs to air final newscasts on August 28 |work=ABS-CBN News |date=August 26, 2020 |access-date=August 26, 2020 |archive-date=August 26, 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200826105344/https://news.abs-cbn.com/life/08/26/20/12-regional-tv-patrol-programs-to-air-final-newscasts-on-august-28 |url-status=live}}

Reception

In October 1988, early in the program's run, Meg Mendoza of the Manila Standard criticized the show's format, stating that "we still prefer [GMA Balita] since we can't stand the blood and gore being shown.... Sensationalism may be good for the ratings but there's no substitute to honest and intelligent reporting."{{cite news|last=Mendoza|first=Meg|title=TV Patrol's blood and gore|url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=8cBNEdFwSQkC&dat=19881014&printsec=frontpage&hl=en|access-date=May 24, 2021|work=Manila Standard|publisher=Manila Standard News, Inc.|date=October 14, 1988|page=15|archive-date=May 24, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210524120834/https://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=8cBNEdFwSQkC&dat=19881014&printsec=frontpage&hl=en|url-status=live}}

In 1989, poet and literary critic Virgilio S. Almario was critical of TV Patrol's use of "siyokoy" words, Filipino loanwords from the Spanish or English language that are formed through a misunderstanding of Spanish grammar. As examples, Almario highlighted the use of the words "aspeto," "parliyamento," "pesante," and "konsernado," which he respectively corrected as "aspekto," "parlamento," "magsasaka," "paisano" or "magbubukid," and "konsernido." However, he still commends the program for "passionately" delivering news in the Filipino language.{{cite news|last=Almario|first=Virgilio S.|author-link1=Virgilio S.
