Sat.1 is a privately owned German television broadcasting station. Sat.1 was the first privately owned television broadcasting station in Germany, having started one day before RTL Television.
It started in January 1984 as PKS (Programmgesellschaft für Kabel- und Satellitenrundfunk), initially a joint venture of various publishing houses, and was renamed to Sat.1 in January 1985. The first broadcast could only be seen by roughly 1200 households who owned cable access in the city of Ludwigshafen. Early programs included old films, mainly from the archives of KirchMedia, American hit series and gameshows. Later, the station acquired a name for its original series and TV films.
Sat.1 is currently a part of the ProSiebenSat.1 Media Group.
The channel's own Pay-TV channel Sat.1 Comedy is now Sat.1 emotions. It is for Comedy, Romances and movies.
Sat.1 is broadcasting in High-Definition with the Plattform from Astra HD+, like Sat.1 emotions.
