Super! is an Italian free-to-air television channel owned by Paramount Networks EMEAA. The channel was launched on 1 September 2010 as DeA Super on Sky Italia.[1] On 18 March 2012 it became free-to-air and had a major rebranding, changing both its graphics and its name to Super!.[2] The network's official speaker is voice actor Renato Novara since 2010.
Programming
Super! shows a variety of programs targeted towards children aged seven to thirteen.
Super! was the first Italian television channel airing a Korean drama, Dream High, from 1 September to 16 October 2013, the only K-drama broadcast in Italy.[3] However, the series was heavily edited, with Korean names being changed to English alternatives (for example, Hye-mi became Sam, Sam-dong became Brian, and Jin-guk became Dylan), episodes being split into two half-hour ones and some scenes cut to reduce the length of the episodes[4] or to censor the content unsuitable for young audiences, mainly blood.[5] An unedited version, featuring the same voice actors of the TV dub, was posted on the K-drama's official Italian YouTube channel from 30 October 2013 to 10 January 2014.[6] During October 2019, a new programming block premiered, Chicchirichì Time, which is aimed at preschoolers, airing series like Shimmer and Shine and Bubble Guppies.[7] The block was later discontinued.
