Today I’m writing a short article on This TV. This is a national programming service provided to local television stations across the country.

This TV was launched in 2008 as a joint venture of Metro-Goldwyn Mayer and Chicago-based Weigel Broadcasting (owners of classic TV service MeTV).

In 2013, Weigel announced they would be dissolving the partnership to concentrate on their new service Movies!, a 24/7 movie channel. Fellow Chicago broadcaster Tribune took over as This TV partner with MGM.

Although This TV airs mostly movies on it’s schedule, they do air a handful of classic TV shows from the 1950s and 60s. They aired more until Tribune entered the picture, as they moved several shows like Mister Ed and The Patty Duke Show over to Tribune’s Antenna TV service.

Classic TV series currently airing on This: The Addams Family, Highway Patrol, The Outer Limits and Sea Hunt.
