Digital Television
The state network carries four digital subchannels:
| Subchannel (## = local channel) |
Network | Programming Description |
|---|---|---|
| ##.1 | Prairie Public Television HD | Prairie Public Television's traditional schedule in 1080i high definition; standard definition programs are shown with pillarboxing. |
| ##.2 | World | Documentary and news programming from the PBS-programmed network. |
| ##.3 | Minnesota Channel | Programming from Twin Cities Public Television's program service which provides shows of regional and political interest. Despite the channel's name, programming relevant to North Dakota is carried often on the state network. |

Famous quotes containing the word television:
“Laughter on American television has taken the place of the chorus in Greek tragedy.... In other countries, the business of laughing is left to the viewers. Here, their laughter is put on the screen, integrated into the show. It is the screen that is laughing and having a good time. You are simply left alone with your consternation.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
