TV25

TV25 is a Swiss German-language private general-interest television channel. It was announced on 9 December 2015 by AZ Medien, the regional press group that also owned the local Swiss television channels Tele M1, TeleZüri and TeleBärn, as a second national private general-interest channel following the launch of TV24 two years earlier on 10 December 2013. TV25 began broadcasting on 26 April 2016 at 20:15 and transmits in high definition. The channel positions itself as a general-interest broadcaster. Unlike TV24, it does not carry a daily news bulletin. Its schedule mixes Swiss productions, cartoons, European films, quality documentaries and art-house cinema, American series, cooking shows, teleshopping, sport, and a weather service running from 06:00 to 18:15. Like TV24, it draws part of its programming from the output of the group's partner local channels Tele M1, TeleBärn and TeleZüri. TV25 is distributed throughout Switzerland by cable and IPTV, including via Swisscom TV, UPC Cablecom and other local and regional cable networks. Its advertising sales are handled by Goldbach Group, which also markets other advertising windows such as M6 Suisse, TVM3 and C8 Suisse. The channel is part of the CH Media broadcasting group, the successor to the AZ Medien television activities. In its current on-air presentation the channel is branded as "3+ Emotion" and is described as formerly TV25, with a remit of "everything for the heart and a good time" — a channel that triggers good vibes and big feelings for the most beautiful hours of the day. Its schedule features reality and lifestyle formats such as Bumann, der Restauranttester, Bauer, ledig, sucht..., Leben im Blockhaus and the documentary series Swissview, alongside teleshopping blocks from Susi.live, premiumshopping.tv and MediaShop, which are streamed on oneplus.
