TV Patrol Southern Mindanao is the local news network broadcast of the ABS-CBN Regional Network Group in Davao City. It has been the most watched news program in Davao City and Region 11. The newscast is a tabloid-style format, and delivers news headlines about the current events in Southern Mindanao.

It is aired live daily from ABS-CBN TV-4 Davao at 5:00 PM, from Monday to Friday, simulcast on TV-24 Mati, Davao Oriental. It is also shown abroad through The Filipino Channel. It is simulcast on radio via DXAB Radyo Patrol 1296.

TV Patrol Southern Mindanao maintains a 24-hour shift of reporters, cameramen and drivers with coverage over the provinces of Davao del Norte, Davao del Sur, Davao Oriental and Compostela Valley.

History

As TV Patrol Mindanao

The program launched as TV Patrol Mindanao on April 17, 1989, and served Davao, Cagayan De Oro, Pagadian, Butuan, Gensan, Cotabato and Zamboanga. Dante Luzon was its first anchor. Languages that were used are Bisaya and Chavacano. It had covered stories ranging from natural disasters, man-made disasters, religious conflicts, tribal conflicts, political controversies, social issues and crime stories in the entire Mindanao island.

As TV Patrol Davao

After Luzon's departure, the program was reformatted as TV Patrol Davao (but still referred to as TV Patrol Mindanao). Its coverage was eventually reduced to the Davao Region (specifically Davao, Digos, Tagum and Mati) as other TV Patrol regional editions were being launched in other ABS-CBN regional stations in Mindanao. Its later anchors include Girlie Balaba, Aljo Bendijo (who would later anchor TV Patrol from 2001 to 2003), and Tina Junsay. Stephen Manangan became the main anchor in 2003.

As TV Patrol Southern Mindanao

The program was renamed TV Patrol Southern Mindanao in 2005. In 2006, Dante Luzon returned to the regional newscast as an alternate anchor. In 2007, Stephen Manangan and Melanie Severino became the main anchors.

The newscenter set of TV Patrol Southern Mindanao, uses Augmented Reality (AR) technology, similar to that of main newscast TV Patrol.

On November 12, 2010, both Manangan and Severino bowed out of the newscast. Manangan left the newscast to be hired by GMA Network as its news correspondent in Manila, while Severino left to concentrate on her duties as an anchor and reporter on DXAB.

On November 15, 2010, Paul Palacio took over the vacant anchor chair. The newscast had later introduced once again their new logo and set, making them the first regional group to do so since TV Patrol revamped a week earlier. During the 22nd Anniversary of TV Patrol Southern Mindanao, a new studio and a slight change on its opening billboard was unveiled. Augmented reality was also used for live reports, similar to that of the national TV Patrol. In May 2011, Melanie Severino returned to the newscast after a 6-month absence.

On August 19, 2013, TV Patrol Southern Mindanao updated its graphics similar to the main national newscast.
