History
Original titlecard from February 28, 2011 to September 7, 2012

In 2011, DZBB began its simulcast on television with the launch of Dobol B sa News TV block, coinciding with the inauguration of GMA News TV.[2] Originally, the block included the radio station's top-rated programs such as Saksi sa Dobol B and Super Balita sa Umaga Nationwide. However, it ended its simulcast on September 7, 2012. It was replaced in the interim by Pinoy Cine Klasika, a movie block showing Filipino monochrome films of the 1950s and eventually Kape at Balita.

On April 24, 2017, Dobol B sa News TV returned on GMA News TV after a 5-year hiatus, this time simulcasting DZBB's entire morning drive-time programming, coinciding with the launch of the station's new jingle and unveiling of its renovated radio studio. The original programs Saksi sa Dobol B and Super Balita sa Umaga Nationwide returned to the network, with DZBB's mid-morning shows Sino? (with segments Jeng-Jeng and Balitawit) and Dobol A sa Dobol B added on the said block.[3][2][4]

In 2018, Saksi sa Dobol B's timeslot was reduced due to the medical leave of Mike Enriquez, with the Sino? segment now becoming a stand-alone program with the 9:00 - 9:30am slot taken over by a new program, Anong Say Nyo? which debuted early in the year.

On April 24, 2019, ZOE Broadcasting Network and GMA / Citynet announced that the blocktime agreement between their networks was not going to be renewed. This effectively ended their partnership and lease blocktime on VHF Channel 11 after almost 14 years. As a result, Channel 27 was re-utilized to broadcast GMA News TV on June 4, 2019, after 18 years of dormancy. With this transfer, Dobol B sa News TV block extended its airtime until midday (6:00 AM-12:00 NN, filling the timeslot of News to Go and the first 30 minutes of Balitanghali). Additionally, the block also started airing into the weekend beginning on the same day. The revamped lineup included new programs as well as existing Super Radyo programs that have not been aired on the block before.[5][6][7][8]

On January 13, 2020, Dobol B sa News TV extended its airtime as an emergency measure for the first time to cover the eruption of Taal Volcano in Batangas (albeit Balitanghali aired on its usual noontime slot).

On March 19 and 20, 2020, GMA News TV was put off air in line with the enhanced community quarantine imposed by President Rodrigo Duterte, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Dobol B sa News TV's Melo del Prado sa Super Radyo DZBB aired temporarily on GMA Network on these days alongside the main channel's Unang Hirit. GNTV returned to broadcasting (albeit on a truncated 12-14 hour daily operation) on March 21, with the expanded edition of Dobol B sa News TV (along with DZBB's simulcast of 24 Oras) airing into the evening as its sole program. As a part of the skeletal protocol, Dobol B now includes the afternoon programs from the station that have never been simulcast on TV. Additionally, on March 23, 2020, the 6:00-8:45 am timeslot of the block begun simulcasting on its VHF sister station as a skeletal measure, temporarily displacing Unang Hirit (the full hour of Saksi sa Dobol B can be watched on GMA News TV instead). That arrangement ended on April 8, giving way to the return of the Unang Hirit broadcasts 5 days later.

On August 10, 2020, the production of Dobol B sa News TV moved from the DZBB radio booth to GMA Network Center Studio 2, which was the home of GNTV-produced newscast Balitanghali and News TV Live bulletin before it ceased production last March.
