Defy TV
Estados Unidos
Defy TV é um canal de transmissão digital disponível via sinal aberto nos Estados Unidos. Sua programação é fortemente baseada em séries clássicas de televisão, geralmente recorrendo a acervos que vão dos anos 1960 até o início dos anos 2000. O telespectador pode esperar uma grade repleta de dramas policiais, séries de tribunal e aventura e ação que foram ao ar originalmente em grandes redes. O canal também exibe ocasionalmente faroestes e séries de ficção científica, conferindo-lhe um amplo apelo retrô. Diferente de canais focados em um único gênero, a Defy TV mistura esses programas antigos sem uma estrutura temática rígida, o que pode resultar em uma programação que muda visivelmente de um horário para o outro.
Para quem não tem TV a cabo ou satélite, a Defy TV é acessível por antena em muitas regiões metropolitanas. O canal também transmite seu sinal ao vivo em várias plataformas gratuitas de televisão com suporte de anúncios, ficando disponível em dispositivos conectados e smart TVs. Um guia típico do dia pode listar vários episódios consecutivos de uma mesma série
