The show features several guests to analyze the issues of the Philippines, as well as reports and rundown of the day's news. [1]

In March 2020, the show was temporarily suspended due to the enhanced community quarantine in Luzon caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The show resumed its programming on September 21, 2020. [2]

On January 4, 2021, Maki Pulido and Atom Araullo replaced Jessica Soho as anchors. [3] In February 2021, GMA News TV was rebranded as GTV, with the show being carried over. [4]

On October 28, 2024, due to GMA Integrated News' cost reduction, Araullo became the sole anchor of the news show and Pulido was let go from the show. [5]
