Overview

The program is the first unified morning show in North Central Luzon, more than five years after its predecessor Primera Balita, airing on GMA Dagupan, went off the air following the strategic streamlining of programs and manpower on GMA's provincial stations.[2][3][4]

Mornings with GMA Regional TV broadcasts live from the GMA Dagupan Station and is simulcast in GMA Ilocos Norte (Channel 5), GMA Ilocos Sur (Channel 48), GMA Abra (Channel 7), GMA Mountain Province (Channel 5), GMA Aparri (Channel 13), GMA Tuguegarao (Channel 7), GMA Batanes (Channel 7), GMA Isabela (Channel 7), GMA Baler (Channel 5) and GMA Olongapo (Channel 10)[5][6]

Less than a month later, Ralph Guieb left the program leaving Ara Hanesh (formerly from ABS-CBN Dagupan) as solo anchor of the program. Eight months later, Harold Reyes was announced as the new co-host of Hanesh, although the latter had her last appearance on December 17, 2021. Co-host Angelica Maglanoc joined Reyes on January 3, 2022 and stayed until April that same year. Co-host CJ Torida replaced Maglanoc until February 3, 2023, and replaced Reyes later by July 3 the same year.

On February 6, 2023, the program shifted from a pre-recorded presentation to live broadcasts (although some Spotlight and BizTalk segments are pre-recorded) as part of the rebranding of GMA Regional TV, integrating news reports alongside interviews with personalities all over North Central Luzon and expanding its coverage areas to the Southern Tagalog and Bicol regions. Co-host and correspondent Joanne Ponsoy joined the show as part of this change.
