The Isyu Ngayon series (Issues Today) were a brand of regional news magazine shows of different GMA Regional TV stations in the Philippines. They were weekly basis aired in Dagupan, Cebu, Iloilo and Davao every Saturday mornings; and followed by daily basis aired in Naga, Bacolod, Cagayan de Oro and General Santos which were aired side by side with GMA's flagship national newscast 24 Oras. The Isyu Ngayon family of programs were not available in the Metro Manila market. Its editions in Naga, Iloilo, Bacolod and Davao were aired internationally via GMA News TV International.
Isyu Ngayon premiered on October 30, 2010 as a Saturday morning news magazine program replacing the Agenda series of GMA Regional TV in Dagupan, Cebu, Iloilo and Davao, a special series of forums and documentaries for the 2010 national and local elections. The program well known of being patterned with Sunday morning talk shows in the United States tackling political issues and human interest stories and was the network's answer to Mag TV Na. It was also launched on November 22, 2010 as a daily news magazine program following the launch of regional news and public affairs teams on their satellite stations in Naga, Bacolod, Cagayan de Oro and General Santos as answer to the regional editions of TV Patrol in these areas.
However, its editions in Dagupan, Cebu, Iloilo and General Santos were cancelled during the last quarter of 2011 to first quarter of 2012 despite garnering good ratings, the three weekly editions were replaced by a travel show Let's Fiesta aired every Sunday while the operations of General Santos station was later on absorbed by the Davao station with Flash Bulletin as its solely produced program. Despite the cancellation of four editions, Isyu Ngayon remained in some areas.
