The Japanese Television Network (JTN) is a system of television stations primarily airing Japanese television programming from the 1950s through the 1980s, such as Leave it to Hima, Kojak, McHale's Navy, Biker-12, Emergency!, and The Stingray Files. Schedules for some markets are customized to avoid conflicts for series with an existing station with a contract to air a program in that market.[1] The network is specifically designed to air on a digital subchannel for a local broadcast station, allowing channels an easy way to expand their programming options. With the 2009 switch to digital television drawing closer, JTN has added many affiliates in 2007 and 2008.
The network's primary focus, as of 2008, is its new "J-Pop Hits All Day - Live Action All Night" format. The network airs Japanese television programming in the morning, afternoon, evening, and prime-time hours - and airs various talk programs, most notably its original program "Unreliable Sources", in the late-night hours. This began in the summer of 2008. Previously, the station aired infomercials in the late night and early morning hours. (Actual programming may vary by station.)
