History


Early years

Oy Mainos-TV-Reklam Ab, or MTV for short, was founded on 29 April 1957 with the idea of establishing a

isradio (YLE), the public broadcaster, whose television project '' Suomen Televisio'' had already begun test broadcasts. Yleisradio was initially reluctant but eventually agreed to get additional revenue, which was required to produce programmes to compete with TES-TV. According to the initial agreement, MTV only got around ten hours a week of airtime, all outside the

s. MTV's first broadcast was on 13 August 1957. During the early years, MTV was on shaky financial and political grounds. The company survived the troubles and by the early 1960s had begun to establish its position. As Yleisradio expanded the range of television broadcasts, MTV's coverage also increased. This gave them a significant competitive edge over TES-TV since renamed to Tesvisio, whose broadcasts could only be watched in some of the larger cities. In 1964, Yleisradio announced that they had purchased Tesvisio (who were nearing bankruptcy) outright and that they would launch a second channel reorganized from Tesvisio's assets. MTV expressed demands that the second channel be given to them, but Yleisradio refused any such attempts, agreeing however to give MTV more air time, even some prime time, on the second channel. TV-ohjelma 2 ("TV programme 2") launched on 7 March 1965, with Suomen Televisio renamed to TV-ohjelma 1 ("TV programme 1"). Even though YLE and MTV broadcast on the same two channels, they were effectively considered separate networks and organised daily handovers, including airing idents, to the other network whenever MTV's programming blocks began or ended. This could happen independently for either of the two channels, since they had independent schedules as time went on, a distinction in terms of programming between the two broadcasters developed, with MTV focusing on lighter entertainment and YLE on informative programmes. MTV moved their headquarters to a new building, ''Pöllölaakso'' ( fi:Pöllölaakso (1967–2023)), in Ilmala in 1967. The first

broadcast on MTV was aired in 1970. Like with Yleisradio, colour programming increased gradually and by the end of the 1970s, most programmes were in colour. To commemorate the colour transition, MTV introduced a new, simplified owl logo in 1975 which would remain in use until 1993.


MTV becomes MTV3

After much political wrangling and prolonged discussions with Yleisradio, in 1981, MTV managed to introduce their news programme, Kymmenen uutiset ("the ten o'clock news"). The company was renamed to MTV Oy in 1982. In the mid-1980s, Yleisradio, MTV, and

, which was however free-to-air. The channel mostly broadcast imports but some original shows were broadcast as well (albeit not produced by the channel). MTV also began broadcasting their programmes on the channel and started to increase their share in the project. By 1990, MTV had a majority share in the channel. MTV3, a replacement for Kolmoskanava was launched at midnight on 1 January 1993 in a grand launch event. MTV moved all of its programming to MTV3 and stopped leasing blocks from channels one and two, leaving them entirely to YLE and to become the modern channels
