Television In Slovakia
Television stations in Slovakia broadcast in DVB-T format. Broadcasting is mostly in the Slovak language, state owned channels have some dedicated broadcasting for ethnic minorities (always subtitled). Foreign language (with the exception of Czech) movies and shows are dubbed (rarely subtitled). Czech production is mostly broadcast in original, with the exception of juvenile programs. Often, foreign language movies are broadcast with Czech dubbing. Czech television channels are also rather popular in Slovakia, received either directly in border regions or carried by cable companies.

Famous quotes containing the word television:
“The television screen, so unlike the movie screen, sharply reduced human beings, revealed them as small, trivial, flat, in two banal dimensions, drained of color. Wasn’t there something reassuring about it!—that human beings were in fact merely images of a kind registered in one another’s eyes and brains, phenomena composed of microscopic flickering dots like atoms. They were atoms—nothing more. A quick switch of the dial and they disappeared and who could lament the loss?”
—Joyce Carol Oates (b. 1938)
