TV6 Estonia is an entertainment television channel broadcasting to Estonia featuring series, music, fashion and sports.

The channel's programming has been primarily geared towards men, and features a selection of cartoons, TV series and movies from comedy, reality, action-adventure, science fiction, fantasy, and horror genres.

Local programming typically features one local soap opera, one local reality television show, and a bevy of local sports shows and live sports transmissions.

Television shows broadcast on the channel are mostly U.S.-based, and current fare includes The Simpsons, Family Guy, Fresh Off the Boat, The Big Bang Theory, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., New Girl, and Last Man on Earth.

History and availability

It was launched on 24 March 2008, as all of the current channels (the big three – ETV, Kanal 2, TV3) were obliged to have digital sister channels at or by the end of March 2008. On 9 January 2010,[dubious – discuss] although TV6 Estonia did leave the free-to-air MUX1, it continues programming in terrestrial subscription-based MUX2, and is also available on cable and IPTV. Estonia turned analogue television transmissions off on 1 July 2010.[2]

TV6, as with other channels of the All Media Baltics group in the Baltic states, switched to HD broadcasting on 26 July 2018.[3]
