History
In April 1992, Freddie Garcia, then ABS-CBN executive vice president and general manager, and Johnny Manahan, then program director, formed the idea of creating a stable of new stars exclusively for the network. This gave birth to Talent Center. In its early years, the Talent Center's project was Ang TV.
The show auditioned several thousand people and accepted a few dozen into the program. The Talent Center continued its search through the launching vehicle Star Circle in 1995.
