MEGA Channel (or simply MEGA) is a private Greek television network, broadcasting throughout Greece, that is based in Athens.
MEGA is the first privately-owned television network that is still in operation in Greece. It began broadcasting on November 20, 1989. It is owned by Teletypos SA.
MEGA's programming consists mainly of Greek programmes such as comedies, dramas, news, current affairs and entertainment shows. In recent years, MEGA Channel has overtaken its main rival, ANT1, as the most popular channel in Greece, largely due to hit shows like 50-50, Sto Para Pente' and Savvatogennimenes.
