3One of the multitudes of "digi-nets" found on broadcast television [[note]]networks carried on the digital subchannels on TV stations' over-the-air signals; it can also be seen on cable/telco systems if they carry the subchannel, and they likely do)[[/note]] '''This TV''', owned by Allen Media Group (since 2020; before that it was a joint venture between Creator/MetroGoldwynMayer and Tribune Media), specializes mainly in movies from the MGM library (specifically, the stuff that wasn't acquired by [[Creator/{{TBS}} Turner]] [[Creator/{{TNT}} Broadcasting]] and then absorbed into Creator/WarnerBros.) Primarily, This TV airs all MGM films released after 1986, most of the United Artists library, and many other companies (such as Creator/OrionPictures) that MGM has bought over the years, as well as television series late at night and early in the morning.

5Weigel Broadcasting was MGM's partner in This from its launch until November 2013. Under Weigel's supervision, This TV aired children's programming from the Creator/CookieJarEntertainment/Creator/{{DiC}} library, as well as Weigel's in-house E/I production ''Green Screen Adventures''. They eventually transferred their share to Tribune, because Weigel had the far more successful Creator/MeTV to deal with, and they partnered with {{Creator/FOX}} to launch the Movies! digi-net.

7From 2017-2018, This TV carried the Sinclair Broadcast Group's three-hour morning block of non-educational children's programming, Creator/{{KidsClick}}, which was also seen on other Sinclair-owned stations until its demise in 2019. [=KidsClick=] was supplemented by This TV's own block of acquired E/I programming.

9Due to the huge success of other diginets, This had to cut back its signature programming. Now, the mornings are entirely either paid programming or syndicated educational shows with early afternoons dedicated to syndicated courtroom shows, leaving just the early evening and primetime hours for movies.
