Super! is an Italian free-to-air television channel owned by Paramount Networks EMEAA. The channel was launched on 1 September 2010 as DeA Super on Sky Italia. [1] On 18 March 2012 it became free-to-air and had a major rebranding, changing both its graphics and its name to Super!. [2] The network's official speaker is voice actor Renato Novara since 2010.

Contents

On 15 September 2017, Viacom acquired 50% of the channel. [3] On October 18, 2019, Viacom took full ownership of Super!. However, the collaboration with DeAgostini continues with a multi-year agreement for original content. [4]

Programming

Super! shows a variety of programs targeted towards children aged seven to thirteen.

Super! was the first Italian television channel airing a Korean drama, Dream High , from 1 September to 16 October 2013, the only K-drama broadcast in Italy. [5] However, the series was heavily edited, with Korean names being changed to English alternatives (for example, Hye-mi became Sam, Sam-dong became Brian, and Jin-guk became Dylan), episodes being split into two half-hour ones and some scenes cut to reduce the length of the episodes [6] or to censor the content unsuitable for young audiences, mainly blood. [7] An unedited version, featuring the same voice actors of the TV dub, was posted on the K-drama's official Italian YouTube channel from 30 October 2013 to 10 January 2014. [8] During October 2019, a new programming block premiered, Chicchirichì Time, which is aimed at preschoolers, airing series like Shimmer and Shine and Bubble Guppies. [9] The block was later discontinued.
