Teysi ng Tahanan (lit. 'Teysi of the home') is a Philippine television talk show broadcast by ABS-CBN. Hosted by Tessie Tomas, it aired from January 14, 1991 to March 26, 1997, replacing Magandang Umaga Po and was replaced by Today with Kris Aquino.
The show was the first morning program to also be shown internationally before the use of international programming the program aired internationally via The Filipino Channel from 1994 to 1997 and its revived successor in 2003.
Overview
[edit]Each day of the show had a theme: Mondays focused on the occult with psychic Madame Rosa in Iparamdam kay Madam. Tuesdays and Thursdays tackled love and sex issues with therapist Dr. Margie Holmes. Wednesdays covered crime and current events, while Fridays featured dramatizations of viewers’ life stories in Kung Maibabalik Ko Lang, inspired by Regine Velasquez-Alcasid's 1987 song.
The show became an instant hit, winning numerous local awards and earning "Hall of Fame" recognition from prestigious organizations like Gawad CCP, Catholic Mass Media, KBP Golden Dove, and Star Awards in the Best Talk Show or Best Women's Show categories. It achieved unprecedented ratings and became a top revenue generator for ABS-CBN, with advertisers eager to sponsor the program.
The cooking segment, Eagle's Nest, was regularly sponsored by major food companies such as California Manufacturing Company (CMC) Philippines—now Best Foods, a subsidiary of Unilever Philippines, Nestlé, or other food industry giants. Other notable segments included Ginang Give Away, sponsored by 3D and other appliance manufacturers; Superwheel Supermisis Portion, sponsored by Superwheel; and the SHARP Washing Machine Portion, backed by SHARP Philippines.
The program served as a training ground for emerging talents, both on and off-camera. It catapulted personalities like Eagle Riggs, Madame Rosa, and Dr. Holmes to household-name status. Notable figures such as Arnell Ignacio, Giselle Sanchez, Dang Cruz, and Mosang got their first taste of television exposure through the show.
Behind the scenes, the program nurtured some of the most influential creatives in Philippine television. Deo Endrinal went on to become the driving force behind ABS-CBN's biggest drama series, while Enrico Santos became a creative visionary at Star Cinema. The show also produced some of the industry's finest writers, executives, and directors. Directors who began as part of the show's staff include Wenn V. Deramas, Don Cuaresma, Erick Salud, Connie Macatuno, and Arnel Jacobe.
Tomas' wedding to her British husband, Roger Pullin, was broadcast live on the show in 1994.[1]
Teysi ng Tahanan remained a leader in its format and timeslot until it ended in 1997. The show concluded after six successful years when host Tessie Tomas decided to step back and focus on spending more time with her husband. It was then replaced by Today with Kris Aquino.
Spin-off
[edit]As part of the 50th anniversary of Philippine television, Teysi ng Tahanan launched a spin-off talk show entitled Teysi, which premiered in February 3, 2003 until it ended in January 2004 due to low ratings when Magandang Umaga, Bayan extended its timeslot until 8:30am. The theme song of the show was revived upon the returning of the host 6 years after it ended.
