The show was later cancelled in 2016 after Aquino decided to leave ABS-CBN due to health conditions and to spend more time with her family.

History

Kris Aquino stated on her Twitter account that her defunct talk show Today with Kris Aquino will be back on air, but as the days passed, she announced that she will return on a talk show but will be entitled as Kris TV.

Kris TV premiered on June 27, 2011 from 9:30 AM to 10:30 AM on ABS-CBN's Umaganda morning block, right before the talent competition program Showtime (later known as the noontime show It's Showtime.)

On June 4, 2012, Kris TV moved to an earlier timeslot from 8:00 AM to 9:00 AM, right before the Filipino-dubbed Japanese anime shows under the Team Animazing morning animation block.

On February 10, 2014, Kris TV extended its timeslot from 7:30 AM to 9:00 AM, replacing 30 minutes of the morning program Umagang Kay Ganda . In the same year, the show is later reformatted as a lifestyle magazine talk show.

Format

Kris TV aims to focus on everyday lifestyle and educational places to go that housewives, husbands and kids can relate to. Aquino's talk show varies different topics and segments not only limiting to interviews, but also to everyday life and bonding moments among the audience and the special guests. [1]

The show airs taped Mondays to Fridays.
