Bravo was a British television channel, owned by Living TV Group, a subsidiary of BSkyB. Its target audience was males in their 20s to early 40s and it showed a variety of both archive programming (such as ''Knight Rider'' and ''MacGyver'') and original productions. The Bravo channels closed on 1 January 2011, with its most popular programmes moved to other Sky channels including: ''Spartacus: Blood and Sand'' (now on Sky1), ''Chuck'', ''Leverage'' (now on Fox), ''Dog the Bounty Hunter'' (now on Pick), ''Star Trek'' (now on CBS Action), ''TNA Wrestling'' (now on Challenge), ''Sun, Sea and A&E'', ''Motorway Patrol'', ''Highway Patrol'', ''Brit Cops'' and ''Caribbean Cops'' (now on Pick and Sky Livingit). ==History== Bravo was launched on December 31, 1985, as a cable only channel, created by United Artists Programming and broadcasting mainly black & white B-movies from the 1950s and 1960s. Initially, the channel was a cassette-delivered service delivered to cable headends for automatic play-out. In 1991, United Artists merged with their largest shareholder TCI ( Liberty Media), to form the largest cable operator in the US. TCI and US West announced a joint venture, and in 1992, the joint venture company became Telewest Communications. In 1993, talks were held with Tele-Communications Inc. which resulted in Flextech acquiring TCI's European programming business in exchange for shares. By January, the deal was complete with TCI, which allowed TCI to acquire 60.4% of Flextech while Flextech acquired 100% of Bravo, 25% of UK Gold, and 31% of UK Living and 25% of the Children's Channel which increased its share in that channel.
