The channel used to broadcast a wide variety of TV programs related to entertainment, series and movies. As of March 1, 2011, 7TV rebranded itself as "SevenTV" with their new slogan, "entertained benefit".[3] The headquarters for the channel were located on the 3rd floor of the shopping centre on the Varshavskoye Highway in Moscow.
