## History

[edit]

### 1957–1964: Founding and early broadcasts

[edit]

In 1957, seven companies applying for the third television broadcasting license in the Tokai region made a bid: Tokai Broadcasting, Tokai TV, Tokai Radio, Kinki Tokai Broadcasting, Nippon Color TV, Nagoya Broadcasting and Nippon Television.[1]: 20  Tokai Broadcasting, Tokai TV, Tokai Radio, and Kinki Tokai Broadcasting merged to form New Tokai Television and obtained a broadcasting license on October 22, 1957.[1]: 20

It was anticipated that New Tokai TV would broadcast on channel 1 in the Tokai region, although there were voices[who?] in the postal office who believed that channel 1 should be used by CBC, as it was historically the first station to broadcast. However, CBC was willing to continue to use channel 5, as its frequency was widely known, and the number was located in the center of the TV channel switching dial at that time. Therefore, Tokai TV used channel 1.[1]: 27

On December 1 of the same year, New Tokai TV set up an office in the New Nagoya Building, and began preparations for broadcasting.[1]: 20  On January 20, 1958, the headquarters were established in Higashishincho, Higashi-ku, Nagoya City, and on February 17 the name was changed to Tokai Television, referred to in short as THK.[1]: 20

On December 18, Tokai TV began airing test signals, and began trial broadcasting on December 21.[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, THK abolished the off-air period in the afternoon and broadcast continuously 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, self-produced programs were produced in color, the first being Kazuo Hasegawa's Masterpiece Series.[1]: 63

### 1965–1987: Growth

[edit]

In 1965, Tokai TV adopted a new logo, designed to the concept of "gazing at the modern eye".[1]: 50  In 1968, in order to adapt to the arrival of the color TV era, THK changed the color of the central circular part of the logo from black to blue.[1]: 50  On May 18 Masahiko Harada's match against Ed Geoffrey, broadcast by Tokai TV, set a record rating of 68%, making the boxing broadcast a signature program of the Fuji TV series.[1]: 51  In 1967, as part of the local business contribution, Tokai Television donated a fountain to Nagoya City, which was set up in Sakae Park.[1]: 59  Tokai TV produced many commemorative programs on the occasion of its 10th anniversary, among which the TV series Hida Koshito was affirmed[clarify] by the Meiji Centennial Art Festival.[1]: 68  This period was also the first peak in viewership for Tokai TV. In 1967 and 1968, Tokai TV won the triple crown of ratings[clarify] for two consecutive years.[1]: 229  In 1970, Tokai TV became the first company in the Japanese TV industry to have a two-day weekend.[1]: 75  In 1977, Tokai TV's pre-tax profit exceeded 10 billion yen.[1]: 93

In 1982, Tokai TV won the Triple Crown of ratings again for the first time in 14 years, due to the increase in the ratings of Fuji TV and an increase in the ratings of the baseball broadcast of games played by the Chunichi Dragons. Tokai TV's average ratings throughout the day reached 9.3%, 18.5% during prime time, and 17.7% during the evening.[1]: 108  From the third week of May 1984 to the fourth week of September 4, 1987, Tokai TV ranked first in the average ratings of the whole day for 176 consecutive weeks.[1]: 126  Tokai TV's ratings triple crown lasted for 16 years, from 1982 to 1997.[1]: 146  In 1987, Tokai TV's pre-tax profit exceeded 20 billion yen,[1]: 130  and they aired the 30th anniversary documentary Big White Night Journey to the Extreme North of the Soviet Union, broadcast throughout Japan.[1]: 127  In April 1988, Tokai TV started 24-hour broadcasting at weekends.[1]: 131

### 1989–1999

[edit]

On January 27, 1989, Tokai TV's 30th anniversary commemorative TV series Nagoya Bride Story was serialized and broadcast until 1998.[1]: 160  Its thirdseason[clarify] in 1991 achieved an audience rating of 29.7% in Nagoya, and won the Excellent Award of the Democratic Federation of Freedom of the Year.[1]: 137  In 1991, Tokai TV produced high-definition TV programs for the first time.[1]: 142  In 1996, in order to publicize the program, Tokai TV purchased all the advertising space in some carriages of Nagoya Municipal Subway's Higashiyama Line and Meijo Line, and named it "Tokai TV Station".[1]: 153  Since 1987, Tokai TV hosts Tokai TV Festival (东海テレビまつり) activities.[1]: 160  On the 40th anniversary of the first broadcast, the Tokai TV Festival was held for two days on November 21 and 22 1998, attracting more than 34,000 people.[1]: 160  Tokai TV also established the Tokyo Production Department in 1999 to strengthen its production capabilities in Tokyo.[1]: 164

### 2000–2010

[edit]

With the appearance of well known figure skaters[who?] in Nagoya, Tokai TV has held many figure skating events since 2000, contributing to the popularization of figure skating in Japan.[1]: 189  On December 1, 2003, on the occasion of the 45th anniversary of broadcasting and a move to new headquarters, Tokai TV began to broadcast digital TV.[1]: 176  On November 1, Tokai TV broadcast a 7-hour and 30-minute special program with the theme of "Challenge" to commemorate the 45th anniversary of the broadcast.[1]: 177  In 2004, Tokai TV once again won the triple crown in ratings after 7 years.[1]: 180  During the 2005 Aichi World Expo, Tokai TV set up an exhibition hall (Yumemiruyama/梦みる山) with Chunichi Shimbun, Central Nippon Broadcasting, and other companies to showcase the latest imaging[clarify] technology.[1]: 182–184  On the 50th anniversary of broadcasting in 2008, Tokai TV held the Tokai TV Thanksgiving Festival from November 1 to 3. The Nagoya TV Tower in Hisaya Odori Park was used as the venue, attracting 370,000 people.[1]: 196

### 2011–present: End of analog broadcasting

[edit]

On July 24, 2011, Tokai TV ceased analog TV broadcasting.[1]: 176  However, the "Mr. Cesium" incident (see below) occurred the following month, which seriously damaged its credibility. At the same time, due to the sluggish ratings of Fuji TV, Tokai TV ratings also fell. In 2018, on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of its launch, Tokai TV produced a special program Goodbye, TV,[2] exposing the difficulties faced by its news department, which had repercussions[clarification needed] in the TV industry. This documentary was later adapted into a movie. In 2020, Tokai TV and three other private TV stations in Nagoya (CBC TV, Chukyo TV and TV Aichi) jointly created the on-demand video service Locipo.

## Mascots

[edit]

Since 1997, the eve of the 40th anniversary of broadcasting, Tokai TV has launched a new mascot every 10 years. In 1997, the mascot "ヤッパくん" was an alien who liked to watch their programs.[1]: 156  In 2008, Tokai TV launched a new mascot "わんだほ", whose appearance was based on clouds. The basic shape is the channel number "1" of Tokai TV Station, but can be deformed into other shapes.[1]: 156  In 2018, the mascot was Icchy (イッチー), a little fairy from the flower fields in Tokai, which looks like a yellow bear.[citation needed]

At the same time that the noon series ended, Tokai TV set up six new adult dramas on Saturday night, and continued to provide series for the Fuji TV network.

## Criticism and controversy

[edit]

### Mr. Cesium incident

[edit]

On August 4, 2011, during the "Happy Shopping" segment in Tokai TV's program Bessatsu! P-Can TV (Bessatsu! ぴーかんテレビ), Inaniwa udon noodles from Akita Prefecture were advertised. Suddenly, the announcement screen for the winner of the Love Rice at First Sight Produced in Iwate Prefecture appeared, having nothing to do with the contents of the show. The winners' names were written as "怪しいお米セシウムさん" (lit. "suspicious rice Mr. Cesium") and "汚染されたお米セシウムさん" (lit. "contaminated rice Mr. Cesium"). The screen was shown for 23 seconds.[3] After returning to the studio, the host of Bessatsu! P-Can TV and Tokai TV host Tomoyuki Fukushima[clarify] quickly apologized. Afterwards, according to an investigation by the channel, the cause of the incident was that the subtitle producers accidentally broadcast the subtitle screen for practice. Because this incident happened about five months after the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident and 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 serious warning in writing to Tokai TV for this incident.[6] After the incident, Tokai TV stopped broadcasting the program.[clarify] Then president Shuo Asano also publicly apologized on TV and to 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 report, explaining the cause of the incident, 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.
