The following is a list of original programming previously broadcast by ABS-CBN, a defunct free-to-air commercial broadcasting television network in the Philippines, owned by ABS-CBN Corporation. It was headquartered on the ABS-CBN Broadcasting Center in Diliman, Quezon City.
On May 5, 2020, ABS-CBN was issued with a cease and desist order from the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) and Solicitor General Jose Calida. The franchise license expired on May 4, and a day later, ABS-CBN officially signed off in the evening. On July 10, 2020, the House Committee on Legislative Franchises of the 18th Congress has denied the renewal of ABS-CBN's broadcasting franchise. As a result, the network forced to cease the operations of numerous divisions and laid off its workers.
After shutting down its terrestrial and regional stations, ABS-CBN started distributing its own programs on Kapamilya Channel (a cable channel), Kapamilya Online Live (a web-based channel), and A2Z (a free-to-air channel in partnership with ZOE Broadcasting Network). The corporation has also entered into an acquired agreement with multiple networks to broadcast ABS-CBN programs, including TV5 (from 2021 to 2026 and 2026 to the present), GMA Network, and All TV.
