Building of TV Nova at Barrandov quarter of Prague

TV Nova is a commercial television station in the Czech Republic. It began broadcasting in February 1994 as the first privately held nationwide Czech TV station.^[1] Its first CEO was Vladimír Železný. It quickly achieved the largest market share in the country and remained in this position until the early 2010s.^[2]

History

During the 1990s, Nova produced a number of comedy shows, featuring actors like Jiří Lábus and Oldřich Kaiser. The channel also created its own quiz show.

The channel attracted some notoriety for its late-night nude weather reports ("Počasíčko"),^[3] in which a female (and later male) presenter would appear naked to present the weather. The presenter would then put on clothes appropriate to the weather being forecast.

Disputes between broadcasting license holder CET 21 and financial supplier CME resulted in an international arbitration (CME/Lauder v. Czech Republic) which ended with the Czech Republic forced to pay CME compensation of 353 million USD (approx. 10 billion CZK).^[4]

Vladimír Železný sold CET 21 to the financial group PPF of Petr Kellner, and now TV Nova is owned by CME. The current CEOs are Klára Brachtlová and Jan Vlček.^[5]

Nova HD

Since October 2008, TV Nova is broadcast in high definition quality via satellite, cable, and also a test airing via DVB-T is in progress. Currently the signal is broadcast in 1920×1080i with a bitrate of 18 Mbit/s.
