Timeslot
Anna Luna aired on ABS-CBN from November 27, 1989 to September 30, 1994, from 2:00 pm until 2:30 pm. Then it aired on RPN from October 3, 1994 to September 29, 1995
Controversy
In 1994, Jose Mari Gonzales, the president of RPN at that time, was accused by ABS-CBN of copyright infringement on this soap opera. He believed that Anna Luna was the intellectual property of Zenaida O. Soriano, the wife of Anna Liza director Gil Soriano. Gonzales also believed that ABS-CBN only acquired Soriano to line-produce the series and that the network attempted to buy its airing rights but the production company behind Anna Luna refused which led to its removal. However, RPN continued to air Anna Luna, with a new title Hanggang Kailan, Anna Luna?: Ikalawang Aklat (English title: Anna Luna, Until when?: Second Book) to become part of the network's relaunch on October 3, 1994. The series ended on September 29, 1995, after a year of broadcast on RPN, and almost 6 years on the air.
