UCV TV (also known as UCV Televisión) is a Chilean free-to-air television channel operating in the cultural and general entertainment format. The primary language of broadcasting is Spanish. The channel is the direct heir of the historic **UCV Televisión**, which conducted the first wireless television broadcast in Chile on October 5, 1957, making it the oldest television station in the country . After a major rebranding of the original UCV channel in 2018, the current **UCV TV** was launched on April 12, 2018, by the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Valparaíso (PUCV) as a dedicated cultural channel on digital terrestrial television . It operates under the slogan "Desde 1957 junto a la familia chilena" ("Since 1957 with the Chilean family") . The channel is headquartered in Viña del Mar, Valparaíso Region, with studios located at Agua Santa 2455 .



On air, UCV TV positions itself as the first cultural channel on open television in Chile . Its programming includes cultural programs, documentaries, classic series, adventure shows, health segments, and entertainment programs aimed at the whole family. The channel maintains a strong commitment to the values proclaimed by the Catholic Church, as part of its mission . Programs such as **Aventura 4x4**, hosted by **Omar Oyarce**, run from Monday to Friday at 9:30 PM, featuring explorations of Chile and South America . Other recurring programs include **Doctor en Casa** with **Dr. Claudio Aldunate**, the interview show **Derechos Humanos sin fronteras** with journalist **María Ignacia Rocha**, and the talk show **Cafetín: El late de la tarde** with **Rafael Manzo** .



The channel is also known for its classic programming blocks, including broadcasts of iconic vintage series such as **Los Tres Chiflados** (The Three Stooges), **Los locos Addams** (The Addams Family), **Bonanza**, **El Gran Chaparral**, and **Superagente 86** (Get Smart) . The channel also devotes special programming to significant dates, such as coverage of Easter Week (Semana Santa) . The channel also airs content from its historical archive, including material from the pioneering days of Chilean television .



A significant part of UCV TV's identity is its preservation of television history. In addition to its main cultural channel, the broadcaster operates a second signal called **UCV 2**, available on its website, which focuses on classic programs from the UCV TV archive updated with its own original productions .



UCV TV is available throughout Chile exclusively on digital terrestrial television (DTT) under the ISDB-Tb standard . The channel can be found on different frequencies depending on the region: 5.3 in Santiago, 4.3 in Valparaíso, 9.3 in La Serena, 32.3 in Concepción, and 8.3 in Puerto Montt . The channel broadcasts in 16:9 widescreen format .



UCV TV strives to be a leading cultural media outlet in Chile, providing access to culture, information, and entertainment through content that reflects the values of the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Valparaíso . The mission of the channel is to serve the entire family with high-quality audiovisual content and to preserve the historical legacy of the first television station in the country. Thanks to modern digital platforms, UCV TV provides the opportunity to watch its programming on its website and through its "TV a la carta" (on-demand) service, allowing audiences across Chile and around the world to access its cultural content wherever they are .

The local news is strongest when it reports practical details instead of chasing dramatic headlines. Still, that bottom ticker moves far too quickly; by the time I finish one update, the important part has already disappeared.
Daniel Sullivan
The weekend movie lineup has a cozy old-school feel, and I enjoy stumbling across classic Chilean films I would never find on the bigger streaming services.
Eric Campbell
I wonder if they still show clips from UCV's early broadcast history.

The afternoon interviews have a relaxed pace, and I like hearing ordinary Chileans talk about their towns and work. It feels more grounded than most daytime TV.

After midnight, I like leaving UCV TV on while winding down because the quieter programs are easy to follow. The signal has dropped a couple of times late at night, but it usually comes back quickly.

The election panels are most useful when someone challenges the numbers instead of politely nodding along. Too much of the discussion still feels like rehearsed talking points, but the local reporting adds welcome reality.

The weekend movie marathons are easy to settle into, especially when they include classic films I have not seen in years. UCV TV has a relaxed mix that makes reruns feel worthwhile.

Watching the Saturday evening film slot from abroad has been a pleasant way to keep up with Chilean cinema, especially when older titles turn up. The stream is usually dependable, though the image can soften a little during busy hours compared with my cable service.
Dylan Rogers
The weekend movie slots are a nice change of pace, especially when they bring back classic Chilean films that are rarely shown elsewhere.

The election debates are strongest when candidates are pressed on costs and jobs instead of trading slogans. I wish the channel gave follow-up figures the next day, because a good headline should lead to more than a quick argument.
