Coney Reyes on Camera was a weekly drama anthology that aired from 1984-1998 in 2 networks (ABS-CBN and Solar TV) and became the longest running drama anthology in Philippine TV history until Maalaala Mo Kaya became the longest running drama anthology in 2011. Coney was the host, lead star, and producer.

Overview

The drama anthology stars Coney Reyes herself. Aside from her, her alternates to play protagonist/central role for some episodes are Jacklyn Jose and Gina Alajar (two of the most respectable award winning actresses). In her program's episodes, Coney has been working with major celebrities such as Vic Sotto, Vilma Santos, Helen Vela, Aiza Seguerra, German Moreno, Aga Muhlach and Judy Ann Santos, among others. Kris Aquino (daughter of former President the late Corazon C. Aquino), and Michelle van Eimeren (Miss Australia Universe 1994), also appeared on the show in separate episodes. One of the most unforgettable episodes was the reunion episode with Vilma Santos and Tina Revilla Valencia in 1994 as a special tribute to the late Helen Vela.

The roots of Coney's drama anthology was Coney Reyes-Mumar Drama Studio, produced by Eddie Ilarde's Program Philippines and aired every Saturday on GMA after the hit noontime variety show Student Canteen (also produced by Program Philippines), where Coney was a co-host. However, in 1982, Coney moved to Student Canteen's rival show Eat Bulaga, then airing on Solar TV. Drama Studio continued with former beauty queen Chat Silayan (deceased) as its main star. Silayan, along with Chiqui Hollmann, also replaced Coney on Canteen.

In 1984, Coney was given a new drama anthology on Solar TV, originally entitled Coney Reyes-Mumar On The Set. It aired right after Eat Bulaga on Saturdays, and was first produced by BSH Productions. She later took over production of the show when she put up CAN Television ("CAN" was derived from Coney's real name, Constancia Angeline Nubla, under which she was credited as the show's producer). It was then retitled Coney Reyes On Camera (with the last name "Mumar" dropped after her estrangement with then-husband Larry Mumar).

After the sequestration of Solar TV, the show, along with Eat Bulaga and Agila (both produced by TAPE), moved to ABS-CBN in 1989. Coney began to fully produce the show and despite the exit of Eat Bulaga in 1995 to GMA 7, the show remained in ABS-CBN.

The show aired its final episode on December 26, 1998.

It was reaired on ZOE Broadcasting Network Channel 11 from 2002 to 2003.
