A 24-hour network exclusively dedicated to teenagers, VTV:Varsity Television, announced its programming lineup Monday. Ranging from comedy to entertainment, sports to drama, reality to content created by teens themselves, the new network is set to capture one of the largest and most sought-after programming niches remaining in the television world. VTV fills the gap in youth programming between Nickelodeon (kids 3 to 12) and MTV (adults 18 to 34) by delivering a wide variety of original, never-before-seen programming that is compelling and relevant to today's teens. This is combined with original films and videos created by teenagers from across the nation and throughout the world. Building a community with teens through its website, www.myVTV.com , VTV listened to the desires of its audience and developed a programming line-up based on their demands. ABC International, CBC, CTV, RDF International, and Universal Television are just some of the companies from which VTV has acquired programming.
