Both editions were originally anchored by Ces Oreña-Drilon and Henry Omaga-Diaz. At the beginning, both editions were complemented by The Weekend News as ABS-CBN's weekend newscasts with TV Patrol Sabado and TV Patrol Linggo as the early-evening newscast and The Weekend News as the late-night newscast until the latter was cancelled more than a year later. During this period, the weekend editions used to occupy middle evening time slots between 8:00 and 10:00 p.m..
