Hi everyone!

I've been trying to figure out all the channels that Viacom owns in the UK, and it seems like there are a lot of them. I'm particularly interested in the ones that cater to different genres like music, kids, and general entertainment.

Can anyone provide me with a complete list of all 15 channels owned by Viacom in the UK? It would be really helpful for my project on media ownership. Thanks in advance!

Hey TVFanatic92!

I don't have the full list, but I do know a few of the popular ones they own. Maybe I can help jog some memories! They have channels like MTV, Nickelodeon, and Paramount Comedy

Hopefully, someone will chime in with the complete list soon!

Just to clarify, some of these channels may have changed over the years, and Viacom has been known to rebrand and launch new channels, so make sure to keep that in mind. But as of now, this list looks accurate! If you need help with anything else, let us know!

Remember to check back periodically, as the channel lineup can change!

WOAH, I just saw the promo for the Paramount Comedy revamp, and it looks wild! The promo says "Paramount Comedy is changing from the 19th of September." It shows the current logo falling into a black hole, and then a black rabbit with pink eyes pops out laughing!

It’s such a creative concept — I can't believe how quickly they’re moving on this! Looks like they’re really going for a fun and quirky vibe. I’m definitely looking forward to seeing how it all turns out. Anyone else seen the promo yet? What do you think? Write a follow up where the new look includes a new logo as well, New idents include those rabbits, Also a whale band, a wind up toy cat with a TV head (This character also appears at the end of promos) etc, Also slight changes to the schedule

Wow, PeppaPigFan87! That promo sounds absolutely incredible! I just got some more details about the upcoming changes to Paramount Comedy. Along with the new branding set to launch on the 19th of September, they’re also introducing a brand-new logo that’s really fun and visually striking.

The new idents will feature the black rabbit you mentioned, but that’s not all! They’re also adding some quirky characters to the mix, including a whale band that performs goofy tunes and a wind-up toy cat with a TV head. This little cat also appears at the end of their promos, adding a whimsical touch.

In addition to these visual changes, Paramount Comedy is slightly tweaking its schedule to include some fresh new shows and revisit some classic favorites. It sounds like they’re really aiming for a playful and engaging atmosphere! Can’t wait to see how the viewers respond to all of this! Anyone else excited about the new developments?
