Fave TV was an American digital multicast television network owned by the CBS Entertainment Group, a subsidiary of Paramount Skydance Corporation. The channel launched in the markets covered by CBS Television Stations on December 15, 2020, usually as a DT4 subchannel. [1] [2]

Contents

The channel quietly shut down on February 2, 2026, and was replaced with either Outlaw or 365BLK (some CBS-owned stations already replaced it with these networks earlier in January), despite no public announcement confirming it, the network's website stated on its schedule that no programming would air after 6AM ET, which was redirected to the Paramount+ website on January 30. [3]

Programming

The network's programming was mostly taken from the program archives of Paramount Skydance's adult networks, alongside reruns of syndicated sitcoms which also aired on Paramount's cable networks including BET, MTV2, and VH1, although those were eventually removed. The network also carried overnight paid programming.
