History
TV10 Gold and TV10 (1995-1998)
In 1995, Dutch media company Arcade launched two television channels in the Netherlands:
In 1996, TV10 Gold became part of the second largest Dutch media corporation Wegener Arcade. On 1 January 1996, Arcade merged with publishing company Wegener.[3] In the first quarter of 1996, TV10 Gold changed into just TV10 to modernize its image. British sitcoms such as 'Allo 'Allo! and You Rang, M'Lord? remained part of the programming, along with the American TV series M*A*S*H.[4]
In January 1997,
Fox and Fox 8 (1998-2001)
On 19 December 1998, TV10 was rebranded into Fox.
In 2001,
V8 (2001-2003)
SBS, having bought the channel from News Corporation, renamed it into V8 on 1 May 2001 in anticipation of Veronica.
V8 was focused to young adults. The channel mainly broadcast
Veronica (2003-present)
Eventually, Veronica Association closed a deal with SBS, and V8 was rebranded as Veronica on 20 September 2003.[13][14]
The German ProSiebenSat.1 Media took over SBS Broadcasting Group (including its Dutch activities) on 27 June 2007.[15] In 2011, all of SBS's activities in the Netherlands (through SBS Broadcasting B.V.), including the three TV stations (SBS6, Net5 and Veronica), the two TV guides (Veronica Magazine and Totaal TV), production, design and text activities were sold to a joint venture between Sanoma Media Netherlands (67%) and Talpa Media Holding (33%).[16]
On 10 April 2017 Talpa Holding acquired a 67% stake from Sanoma Media Netherlands.[17]
Disney XD
The daytime slot for children broadcast on Veronica began as Fox Kids when Saban bought TV10. The slot since rebranded to Jetix and then to Disney XD.
