DZMM TeleRadyo (TeleRadyo is a portmonteau of telebisyon and radyo, Filipino words meaning television and radio, respectively) is a cable TV channel broadcasting a simulcast of ABS-CBN's flagship AM radio station DZMM, as well as a live video feed of the radio booth itself. As a result, viewers can hear DZMM 630, and see the people currently in the studio speaking live on air.
It is carried on most cable and satellite systems in the country. Video footage of TV programmes simulcasted on the radio station can are also seen. However, radio shows that have been pre-recorded will be supplemented with animated title cards instead of the studio scenes. Content during commercial breaks are separate from the radio feed - TeleRadyo features video ads promoting the station rather than products by various advertisers.

About
As the pioneer in the 24-hour all-Filipino movie channel on cable TV (through the Viva Cinema formerly tie-up with STAR TV a Hong Kong based satellite broadcasting network, which is now retrived last February 2009), Viva tied up with interested local and global cable TV partners in need of access to its local content library. Viva’s library of titles provides an excellent bridgeway into endless hours of viewing enjoyment for the local & international Filipino viewers anywhere in the globe.
Launched last August 2003, is Pinoy Box Office (PBO), Viva’s new 24-hour all Filipino movie & entertainment channel. PBO is now distributed throughout the Philippines, as well as in the U.S. (through the Mabuhay Channel), the Middle East, Asia (Japan) and soon in Europe.
Pinoy Big Brother: Teen Edition is a special edition of Pinoy Big Brother which feature adolescents aged 16 to 19 years old (although celebrities who fall on the said ages compete in the Celebrity Edition). It is one of only two teen-oriented Big Brother versions and the only one with multiple seasons. The other teen show, the United Kingdom's Teen Big Brother, was a short, pre-recorded, one-shot edition, unlike this Teen Edition's real-time, episodic nature.
The adolescents chosen for the Teen Edition, as already mentioned, are aged 16 to 19 (18 in the first Teen Edition and 14-17 for the third one, although this rule was slightly breached; see below) and are from different cities in the Philippines, sometimes even from certain overseas countries with sizable Filipino communities. Other factors are disregarded; in-school and out-of-school youths, natural-born Filipinos and adolescents with a mixture of Filipino and foreign blood, those with intact and broken families, and even teenage single parents may be eligible as long one passes the age requirement and has a background worth exploring during the edition's run.
This edition is usually done in the Philippine "summer" months of late March to early June. During this time, temperatures in the country are at their highest and most students are out of school; a regular school year in the Philippines runs from June of one year to March of the next.
The House used in this edition is the same one used in both regular and Celebrity editions. However, it is modified with colors, designs, and furniture to generally suit the tastes of its teenage housemates. These changes are noticeable as soon as at least one housemate enters the House.
This edition has its own theme song called Kabataang Pinoy ("Filipino Youth"), which describes the Filipino youth and encourages them to face challenges ahead of them. This song is originally performed by the Pinoy rock band Itchyworms.
A third season was announced, with auditions already being taken place. It was announced that it would start airing during summer 2010.

Ang Dating Daan (Tagalog for "The Old Path") is a religious radio and television program in the Philippines produced by the Members Church of God International and hosted by Brother Eli Soriano.
Background
The program started in 1980 on radio then in 1983 on television as a 3-minute block timer on Intercontinental Broadcasting Corporation with a shoe-string budget.[citation needed] The program currently airs live via satellite through the facilities of UHF Channel UN Television and various radio stations such as DZXL-RMN, DZRH and 100 Radyo Natin FM Stations. While mainly broadcasting in Filipino, some English language elements were added for foreign viewers, including "Truth in Focus”, "Biblically Speaking”, "How Authentic the Bible is”, and "Bible Guide”. It also features the use of multi-lingual and multi-dialectic translations of the Bible.
Ang Dating Daan denies several doctrines such as the Trinity [1] and salvation by grace alone. The program frequently criticizes various denominations for their doctrines, practices and what it says are false teachings, including the Catholic Church, Pentecostal Denominations, Jehovah's Witnesses, Seventh-day Adventist Church, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and especially the Iglesia ni Cristo, (Church of Christ founded by Felix Manalo), a Philippine-based religion. In response, Iglesia ni Cristo created a counter program, Ang Tamang Daan ("The True Path") answering Soriano's allegations on the show.
