Lovingly Yours, Helen is a Philippine television drama anthology series broadcast by GMA Network and Banahaw Broadcasting Corporation. The show is the second longest running drama anthology in Philippine television history. Originally hosted by Helen Vela, it premiered on September 7, 1980. The series transferred to BBC in 1984. It returned to GMA Network in March 23, 1986. The series concluded on September 1, 1996. It was replaced by Anna Karenina in its timeslot.
The anthology evolved into a television drama anthology from a daily counseling program on radio with the same title, originally aired on DZBB. It was presented by television/radio personality Helen Vela. Each episode is based on the letter sender's life stories sent by viewers.
The show's radio version, which is a live counselling program, continued to air on weekdays. The radio show moved to BBC's FM station DWOK-FM in 1984, and returned to DZBB in 1986.
