The category was introduced in 2006, at the 13th Star Awards ceremony; Y Do You Care received the award and it is given in honour of a Mediacorp info-ed programme which has delivered an outstanding overall performance. The nominees are determined by a team of judges employed by Mediacorp; winners are selected by a majority vote from the entire judging panel.

Since its inception, the award has been given to 5 info-ed programmes. Tuesday Report: Where The Home Is is the most recent winner in this category. Since the ceremony held in 2016, Tuesday Report remains as the only info-ed programme to win in this category five times, surpassing Find Me A Singaporean which has two wins. In addition, Tuesday Report has been nominated on 14 occasions, more than any other info-ed programme.
