History

edit

The channel began broadcasting in 2008 from the five national telecentros, or regional production centers, at hours in which no local programs were being broadcast. However, this forced changes to other stations' schedules, and in the summer of 2009, Multivisión moved to its own TV channels.

Programming

edit

Multivisión's programming includes a mix of telenovelas, series, documentaries (chiefly from National Geographic Channel and DW-TV), music videos and imported children's programs, as well as movies on Sunday nights and American primetime shows in the evenings.
