### 1957-1964: founding and early broadcasts[edit]

In 1957, around the application for the third television broadcasting licence in the Tokai region seven companies, namely Tokai Broadcasting, Tokai TV, Tokai Radio, Kinki Tokai Broadcasting, Nippon Color TV, Nagoya Broadcasting and Nippon Television launched their bids.[1]: 20 Then, the four companies of Tokai Broadcasting, Tokai TV, Tokai Radio, and Kinki Tokai Broadcasting merged into "New Tokai Television" and obtained a TV broadcasting license on October 22, 1957.[1]: 20

The channel number for broadcasting was anticipated to be channel 1 in the Tokai region, although there were voices in the postal office who believed that channel 1 should be used by CBC as it was the first to broadcast. CBC was willing to continue to use channel 5, as its frequency was widely known, and its number was located in the center of the TV channel switching dial at that time, thus, Tokai TV was going to use channel 1.[1]: 27

On December 1 of the same year, New Tokai TV set up an office in the North Hall of the New Nagoya Building, and began preparations for broadcasting.[1]: 20 On January 20 of the following year, New Tokai Television established its headquarters in Higashishincho, Higashi-ku, Nagoya City, and on February 17 changed its name to Tokai Television, referred to as THK.[1]: 20

On December 18, 1958, Tokai TV began airing test signals, and began trial broadcasting on the 21st of the same month.[1]: 24 At 11:15 on December 25, Tokai TV officially started broadcasting, becoming the 17th private TV station in Japan.[1]: 24 At the beginning of the broadcast, Tokai TV and Kansai TV established a network relationship.[1]: 28 In 1959, with the launch of Fuji TV, Tokai TV joined the network with Fuji TV as the flagship station,[1]: 28 but also broadcast some programs from both Nippon TV and NET TV.[1]: 38 In 1961, Tokai TV abolished the off-air period in the afternoon and started broadcasting uninterruptedly from morning to evening.[1]: 37 With the launch of Nagoya TV in 1962, Tokai TV stopped broadcasting programs from Nippon TV and NET TV, and became a member of the Fuji TV network.[1]: 38 In 1964, Tokai TV broadcast a color program for the first time (the British series Stingray), which was being networked by Fuji TV).[1]: 49 Four years later, Tokai TV's self-produced programs were now produced in color.

Suddenly, the announcement screen of the winner of the Love Rice at First Sight Produced in Iwate Prefecture appeared, having nothing to do with the content, and the winner's name was written as "Mr.たお米セシウムさん)", and this screen lasted 23 seconds.[3] After returning to the presenter appearing in the studio, the host of Bessatsu! P-Can TV and Tokai TV host Tomoyuki Fukushima quickly apologized. Afterwards, according to the investigation results of the channel, the cause of the accident was that the subtitle producers of the program accidentally broadcast the subtitle screen for practice. Because this incident happened about five months after the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident (cesium is a radioactive pollutant), it caused a public outcry.[4]

After the incident, Tokai TV received a large number of calls and emails from viewers to protest. Iwate Governor Tatsumoto also protested against Tokai TV on behalf of the Iwate government.[5] The Japan Commercial Broadcasters Union issued a written serious warning to Tokai TV for this incident.[6] After the incident, Tokai TV stopped broadcasting the program. The then president Shuo Asano also publicly apologized on the TV program and the Iwate Prefectural Government. Tokai TV also set up a countermeasure headquarters to comprehensively verify the cause of the accident and prevent similar incidents from happening again. On August 30, Tokai TV broadcast a one-hour inspection program, introducing the cause and process of the accident, and apologized to the audience and agricultural workers in Iwate Prefecture. After the incident, Tokai Television also established a regeneration committee to rebuild broadcasting ethics and launch activities to support the Tohoku region.
