History
In 1995, EuroMedia and ITV region Granada Teleciaion partnered up to launch a digital only television channel that would be aimed at a kids, teen and young adult demographic, Go, as it was named, had a huge advertising campaign including bilboards, newspaper ads, TV commercials and radio ads. Go launched on June 1, 1995, the same day digital TV came to the Euro Republics. It was also the first day of the Euro Republican school holidays. Go aired kids shows in the morning followed by teen and young adult content later in the afternoon and evening, with adult movies airing at late night/early morning before going back to kids shows after them. The first 24 hours of Go were simulcast on TV3. Later in the 1990’s, they inked a deal with Playboy TV to show their series, in 2000, aside from very few, Go axed adult programming from their then head Andrew Scott stating “Most of our sexual based content is no longer acceptable for Go in these changing times”. They also apologised to parents about the fact that these shows aired before their kids content. In the same year, Go began to produce more original content, starting with “Vinnie’s Guide To Life” which ran for 3 seasons on Go, although it moved to ETV Two after that. The most popular original series currently on Go is “Hayden Harris’ TV Burp” which began in 2003. In 2002, Go launched a HD simulcast entitled Go in HDTV, although it was renamed as Go HD in 2005. In November 2008, it was announced that Go would become a HD only channel by December of 2009. On June 1, 2009, on Go’s 14th birthday, the channel became a HD channel. Some TV providers still carry SD versions however. In 2019, Go announced a multi-year deal with NBCUniversal for all new comedy releases from the company to air on Go with a window of two months in tandem with their US broadcast. This also saw Syfy’s TZGZ block come to the Euro Republics. In 2020, Go entered a deal with Adult Swim to take over the rights for Adult Swim shows from FOX (Although the second half of Rick & Morty Series 4 would air on FOX). At the same time, they took over the rights for South Park from the same channel.
