Television in the Malayanese Union

Television in important to the Malayanese Union. Terrestrial television viewing was estimated at 20% of total television households in 2011. IPTV is offered by Telecom Melayen. Digital terrestrial television was gradually spreading in 2011, with the switchover formerly concluded in 2019.
The Malayanese Union has twelve domestic free-to-air channels: seven government owned, three privately owned, one of mixed ownership. Currently Malayan is the dominant language.
==History==
In 1961, a television station was introduced in the Nashlandian side of the island on channel 7. In March 1962, the independent side (achieved independence in 1959 after losing its status as a trust territory of the Michillies) started broadcasting Televishen Melayen on channel 9.

Television in the Michillies

Television was introduced in 1954 as a government-run service, and the 1984 coup had a significant impact on the media industry. Since then, the Michillian television industry has had an extensive growth, impulsed by the implementation of Michillies on Air funding schemes in 1989 and the arrival of television to the private sector in 1992. Television production has outgrown other large Eurectipherian television industries like the Nashlandian, Étiennese and Hartungian ones and is also a large exporter of content and formats on the international stage.
==History==
===1950s===
The Second World War damaged much of Eurectipheria, yet the Michillies, under a new Catholic state, desperately wanted to embrace the new medium in 1951 in order to use it as an "educational and moral tool".
Broadcasts started from the Launceston transmitter on 7 March 1954 at 8pm. The Michillian Broadcasting Corporation, influenced by the Catholic nature of the government, was responsible for television at the time. Restrictions were put into place: Sundays were dedicated in their entirety to religious programming and news were banned on Sundays.
Despite limitations imposed by the government of the time, MBC Television screened many popular loval television shows, including shows made by an independent production company, Alpha Television, who managed to make extra profits by importing their shows to television channels abroad.
===1960s===
1960 saw the Michillies taking part for the first time in the Eurectivision Song Contest with Robert Richards and his song "Morale". While the song wasn't well-received, it gave the Michillies a chance not to participate in the following year's contest, yet it returned in 1962.
Experimental color transmissions began in 1968, one of the first Eurectipherian channels to do so.
===1970s===
In 1979, an experimental edition of Nuacht started broadcasting. The government limitations of the time did not give enough priorities to the Michillian Gaelic language as it was considered "pagan".
===1980s===
Following the coup d'état, the SARTV, consisting at the time of the privatized Commercial Radio, began operating a television channel in 1985. The Michillies have abandoned the former "Catholic government" restrictions.

===Terrestrial===
Analog broadcasting lasted through March 28th, 2012. The DTT platform was first tested in 2004 and oficially launched in September 2007. The platform is controlled by Freeview, a consortium backed by the main terrestrial broadcasters, MBC, SARTV, ITN, Channel A and the Gaelic Commission.

Television in the Pakifas

The Pakifas were introduced to television in 1962. Until 1992, there was just one channel, Voice of Pakifas Television (now VOP One). Currently the Pakifas have roughly a dozen local television channels, most of them available on Freeview Pakifas. Additionally, the Pakifan Telecommunications Corporation owns the local cable and satellite television networks, relying primarily on Sondrian and Northulian channels.
==History==
In 1959, the Pakifan government accepted a deal from numerous companies to help build VOP's television network. Finally, with support from Ngamiben Electric, Television International Enterprises from Nashland and the three Flarlandian television broadcasters of the time (FBC, UWB, IBC), Voice of Pakifas Television went on air on February 6, 1962.

Television of Asfara

Television of Asfara (French: Télévision d'Asfara) is the state television channel of Asfara. It's one of the three channels in the country, of which RTA, the parent company, also owns A2. The third channel, sports channel Le But TV, works in partial co-operation with TVA.
==History==
ORTÉ set up its television facilities on April 12, 1965, during the overseas TV drive. It was responsible until the 1976 Independence Wars, which were won (all three times) by the Democratic Front of Independence. The logo, the same as ÉR3 (which took over ORTÉ's overseas units in 1975) was modified to feature a green hexagon saying TVA. This was in use until the arrival of democracy in 1989.
Tentorian Broadcasting Corporation

The Tentorian Broadcasting Corporation is a radio and television network operated by the Tentorian government. The network receives 60 percent of its operational financing from the government and the remaining 40 percent from advertisers and other commercial sources.
==History==
===Colonial administration===
When Tentoria was a North Arlesburian colony - as the Territory of Tengeniyza - the Radio Corporation of Tengenyiza was set up in 1932. Shortly afterwards the Nashlandian-Solenian condominium of Toribar set up its own separate radio station.
By the time of its apex there were three services, Network A, Network B and Network C. Channel A broadcast much of its output in English and Swahili, Network B was aimed primarily at whites mostly coming in from North Arlesbury and Network C relayed programming from the NABC's external service.

Terebi Gabayuki

Terebi Gabayuki (テレビがばゆき) was an Ishigakian Sunday afternoon variety show broadcast on Ishigaki Television and stations of the All-Ishigaki News Network. Gabayuki is Ishigakian Japanese slang for "nonsense".
The show debuted in March 1998 and aired regularly until September 29, 2019, with the last show being a celebratory tribute. The shows was influential during its run and had an adaptation in Lenapore. Most of the slot has been taken over by a new program, Minnara.
==History==
The show reportedly noticed a loss of viewers in 2016.
==Content==
The program initially ran for one hour, but eventually ran for three to four hours. Initially it was a pre-recorded show, starting at 13:30, however the show's unprecedented success led to a switch to a live format with pre-recorded segments. The show started with the hosts talking about celebrity gossip. Until 2000 it was the most important part of the program. It ran for fifteen minutes before being cut to ten. This has been highly comparable to monologs in Sierran late-night talk-shows, however the content is entirely different and the hosts are sitting. Following this segment, during most of the first ten years, was a question and answer segment. The initial format was technically fly on the wall, with cameras directing towards random passersby and goving them nonsensical questions. When the show raised concerns about privacy being exposed "live" (even though few segments were actually live), this was later changed to members of the studio.
Musical acts were an integral part for many years, especially when the program became a live show in 2000.
==Controversies==
===Pre-emptions in Nuurawa prefecture===
Nuurawa is currently the only prefecture that is still stuck with one commercial channel, the Nuurawa Broadcasting Corporation (NBC, channel 7), an INN affiliate. NBC is known for regularly disrespecting fans of Gabayuki with the constant pre-emptions, mostly to show local programming and sometimes IBS Sunday afternoon programming. IBS had a regular Sunday afternoon show until 2007. It got cancelled due to the fact that most of its viewers switched to Gabayuki and as a consequence, it was forced to replace its variety show with low-faring programming, usually reruns of period dramas.
NBC is not a "must-buy" station, yet the amount of IBS programming on NBC must be at a minimum 50%.
NBC aired the last edition and refuses to carry Minnara.
Tesopan Broadcasting Authority

The Tesopan Broadcasting Authority (TBA) is the state-run radio and television broadcaster of Tesopo. It operates four radio stations, two television channels and a website in English and native languages.
==History==
Radio was introduced to colonial Tesopo in 1951. It was an independent service that wasn't controlled by the Michillian Broadcasting Corporation and used royal subsidies to operate. When the king was deposed, Radio Tesopo was renamed Tesopan Information Agency (Tesinform) and merged with the royal press agency.
During the military dictatorship that dominated the first years of Tesopan independence, Radio Tesinform ran on a shoestring, providing up to two daily hours of radio transmission, mainly for the provision of news.
In 1968 it was accused of false reporting towards Buritan's president Charles Taylor.
When Waliah Thaddies was elected president of Tesopo, Tesinform was divided into the Tesopan News Agency and the Tesopan Broadcasting Authority.
Radio 2 launched in 1981.
A revision of the services was held in the early 90s. This included the launch of a television service. Up until then, Tesopans were illegally watching M-Net from South Bulungi, and a license to broadcast the channel was considered illegal. M-Net subsequently retaliated and launched a terrestrial relay station in October 1994 (said station was decommissioned in 2002). In August 1994, TBA Television was launched. A second channel followed on April 20, 2015. Both channels are available on DSTV too.

Thak

Thak is a term that reportedly emerged in the Ammer Valley. Its usage was reportedly undocumented but sources believe that the term means "more", "under" or "against".
The term is also used as part of the regional phrase "no thak, no jack" meaning "silence" or "not one sound".
Thak, however, can be capitalized, referring in particular to Ashtalaians in Flarland. This term was popularized in the Channel A series Acrylic Dreams, where one of the characters had Ashtalaian neighbors and called them "thaks". The word reportedly became pejorative after late 2013, reportedly due to the ban on Flarlandian television relays in Ashtalaia and its usage has since been broadened. A Flarlandian radio station (The Song) ran into trouble after playing "thak music" (Ashtalaian songs from the 1991 Land Wars that were against Flarland) in response to the usage of Soboran music in two shootings in 2019, saying that these songs were "violent in nature". At the time of the minor conflict, the word "thak" wasn't in widespread use, especially in the purported context of being against Ashtalaians.
More recently, the word was used pejoratively in a completely different sense, referring to people from hard-hit areas of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as "Belmontians", in reference to most people who believe to be "thaks" being from there. The creators of Acrylic Dreams deny that the word "thak" had such pejorative meanings.
The Anglophony

The Anglophony is an international organization founded in 1971 as a replacement of former colonial Commonwealth organizations.
==History==
The Anglophony was created on the basis of the former Commonwealth of Nations and the ailing Michillian Commonwealth.

The Cora Chronicles

The Cora Chronicles is a Flarlandian sci-fi/fantasy television series broadcast by Channel 14 between 1999 and 2000. It was intended to emulate with its primary competitors, like Babylon, Stargate and the local A Somersault in Time.
The series is set in the planet Atlantis, around the time of the Atlantean sci-fi revival amongst Flarlandian writers, and features Cora, a merman seeker. The planet is entirely inhabited by merpeople and mer-animals and was reportedly the inspiration for The World of Atlantis and Aquaris Quest.
==Premise==
Cora is searching all over Atlantis for a mysterious figure simply known as The Seer. All that he knows is that The Seer is an evil figure that might have caused Cora's village to lose the magic power.
==Episodes==
==Production==
Production for The Cora Chronicles was notorious for being affected by two minor strikes and protests from the government of the Pakifas to allow filiming there on location.
Principal filming began in October 1998 at Hawke's Bay in the central northern Pakifas. Some special effects were rendered in Wembley.
==Broadcast==
===Flarland===
In Flarland the series aired on Channel 14. Season 1 aired on Monday nights. Initially it was supposed to air on Friday nights but the channel's team needed to counter The Friday Show and its overt comedical tones. The second season aired on Sunday afternoons to lesser ratings.
Eventually the series got picked up for reruns on the local version of what was then known as Sci-Fi, where it ran between 2001 and 2003. The series was later picked up by numerous local television channels, most notably Berkstar TV in Berkshire.
In the Pakifas, where some scenes were filmed, it aired on TV3 Pakifas where it achieved considerably better ratings than in mainland Flarland.
===Nashland===
The series aired on NSB's Galaxy. Similarly to Flarland, it was made to counter the massification of sci-fi series, especially on Sky One. It eventually aired on terrestrial television on Four TSN. The last reported channel to air reruns was the local feed of Sci-Fi (now Syfy).
===Hopeland===
The series aired on the TotalAccess network rather unsuccessfully, but it managed to improve relationships between Hopeland and Flarland in the selling of television series.
It is reported that the ill-fated novelization that was unpopular in Flarland became a smash hit in Hopeland.
The Friends He Never Knew

The Friends He Never Knew is a Flarlandian drama television series made by Couch Slave Entertainment and directed by Khyber Waterman, in an unexpected departure from his comedic works.
The series depicts the life of John Harte, who is apparently depressed and needs to cope with an alternate timeline where he managed to meet friends that he never knew in his life.
==Premise==
John Harte is already witnessing middle-aged depression despite not being 40. He is married, has two children and doesn't seem to fit in the concept of society. Upon stumbling by a booth of a scientist, he begins viewing things that he shouldn't see.
==Characters==
*John Harte: Aged 29, he is a "depressed adult of his generation". He is part of Flarland's Work 40+ campaign despite being underage and works at a bank.
==Episodes==
==Production==
Work on the series, at the time known internally within CSE circles as "Untitled Drama Series", began upon its announcement in September 2014. There was a number of issues, including the Save Channel A campaign that was still going strong. Initially the series was supposed to be aired on FBC 1, however, due to the escalation of an ideological crisis between Khyber and the FBC, plans for the series were halted and there were no plans of a possible premiere.
==Release==
The series premiered on October 12, 2018 on Channel Thirteen. Episodes premiered on the following day on Flarland TV abroad, as well as on associated television channels in overseas territories, often on a same-day structure.
Internationally, the series was sold to Netflix in over forty countries. This was apparently an obstacle for Flarland TV showings as the series, in Khyber's own words, "doesn't match the kind of reality people in certain countries feel like watching, as they might not have a subscription". On linear television, the series was sold to Caledonian Television in Saria and the Special Broadcasting System in Northulia.
==Reception==
==Spin-off==
The Greatest Flarlandians

The Greatest Flarlandians was the Flarlandian adaptation of the NBS format 100 Greatest Nashlandians. Like the Nashlandian format a list of 100 historical figures since the unification of the kingdoms was provided for the viewers to vote for the historical figure. FBC 1 broadcast it in the summer and fall of 2006, with the winner being John Quimby, a 1950s prime minister.
The Kiangs

The Kiangs was a Lenaporean adult animated series that ran for two seasons on LPBS 1. Touted as "The Simpsons meets Family Guy and Kampung Boy", the series is set in an unspecified city of northern Lenapore and focuses more on the life and problems of the main characters.
The series was programmed against The Simpsons on Mediacorp's Channel 5. The series ultimately failed.
The Past Called

The Past Called is an Ashtalaian black comedy television miniseries of six episodes co-produced between ART 3 (on behalf of Ashtalaian Radio and Television) and the Vilvek Film Company. The series depicts a situation where the last Fascist leader of Ashtalaia magically wakes up in 2015, 41 years after the uprising and the end of the regime, and is inspired loosely by the Hartunger film Look Who's Back. The series aired in 2018, with filming happening during the last few months of the Fire of Freedom government.
The Peter Stephenson Show

The Peter Stephenson Show is an FBC 3 comedy sketch show written by and starring Peter Stephenson. The first series started on 4 October 2007 at 21:30 as part of the newly launched "Thursdays Are Funny" brand on the channel and was subsequently repeated on the now-defunct FBC Comedy.
Over its run of two seasons of thirteen episodes each, the show was botable for its lack of canned laugh tracks.
The Song

The Song, formerly Radio Capital, is a Flarlandian commercial CHR network owned by IBC.
==History==
The network spun off from IBC Radio 3, an experimental IBC radio service funded by the IBC companies to test local radio on the FM band. The first broadcast on both AM and FM was on March 12, 1979, displacing IBC Radio 2's AM network to FM (yet the AM service was similar to the former Radio 2).
Capital AM featured programming for a wider array of people, Capital FM focused primarily on the youth, dedicatong its schedule to contemporary hits. One of its marquee programs was TNT: The New Top, a weekly chart show that still runs to this day.
The World Keeps Turning

The World Keeps Turning was a Flarlandian talk/comedy show primarily catering world issues, in the vein of Comedy Central's The Daily Show, but as a standard talk show format. The show premiered in January 2005 on a regular weekday timeslot (weeknights at 11:30) but over the course of time it got promoted to primetime, had its number of weekly editions cut (from 2015 to cancellation it was only shown on Fridays) and became more and more controversial in the later stages of its run.
==History==
===Cancellation===
==Controversies==
===Promotion of Flarlandian separatism===
===Shithole Ranking===
The FBC took an unusual step in keeping the term "shithole" uncensored from its coverage of a controversial speech done by Ronald Dramp in January 2018. In response they created the Shithole Ranking (also uncensored), which lasted for two weeks. The ranking was sent using online votes to see "which country is a shithole". Surprisingly Ashtalaia led the ranking with 190 votes, followed in second place by Joseon with 112 and Mechazena in third with 109.
This segment proved to be controversial because of its supposed definition of Ashtalaia and the rise of the term thak as a pejorative.
Think Pictures

Think Pictures is a North Arlesburian film and television production company founded in 1983 as an arthouse producer. The big break of the 90s helped revitalize the local film industry.
==History==
The local film industry was heavily crippled in 1974, as the dictatorial funding to make new films had been cut short. Production values decreased and television has become the new form of mass fiction.
On the other hand, filmmaking was confined to low-budget productions, mostly arthouse films. Stuart Kelmsley founded Think in June 1983, initially to make short, experimental productions inspired on the slowest Scandesian films. They wrre presented to limited groups of people in arthouse theaters nationwide and were later shown on TNA 2's Arts Club in the years that followed.
In 1990, the company signed a deal with Michillian production company Bryan Entertainment, one of the first post-coul production companies, in an attempt to diversify their offer. This time they had the help of the fastest-growing Eurectipherian producer, which meant that North Arlesbury was ready to join the Michillies in a joint game of Hollywood emulation.
