Comedy Central is a Dutch television channel based on the American channel of the same name. The channel is available on cable, digital terrestrial, IPTV, and satellite operators in the Netherlands. It broadcasts many imports as well as original programming. There are also two other, 24 hours a day broadcasting, Comedy Central channels available in the Netherlands, named ''Comedy Central Family'' and ''Comedy Central Extra''. These channels are only available on digital cable. ==History== Comedy Central launched on 30 April 2007, replacing former channel The Box Comedy. The Box was originally a Dutch music channel, which allowed viewers to vote on music videos. The channel later mainly broadcast comedy series. In June 2004, The Box was acquired by MTV Networks Benelux of Viacom. On December 1, 2006 The Box's airtime was shortened, coinciding with Nickelodeon's move from the channel Talpa (now RTL 8) to the The Box's channel. The Box was renamed The Box Comedy. On 30 April 2007 the channel was renamed Comedy Central. Between 2007 and 2010 Comedy Central aired between 20:00 pm until 5:00 am. The programming began after the programming of Nickelodeon. In October 2008 Comedy Central launched a 24 hour digital sister channel, Comedy Central Family, a close collaboration between MTV Networks and Endemol. The channel was first offered by cable operator Ziggo. After this, other providers followed gradually. On November 4, 2010 it was announced that Comedy Central would receive more airtime. Comedy Central ceased timesharing with Nickelodeon on January 1 of 2011, when Comedy Central moved to the TMF channel. On that channel Comedy Central is broadcasting 15 hours a day, between 15:00 and 06:00 (CET). It replaced TMF in its entirety in 2011. During mornings and early afternoons Kindernet was broadcast between 06:00 and 15:00 (CET). From 1 October 2012 until 31 October 2013, Comedy Central is broadcasting 21 hours a day, between 09:00 and 06:00 (CET). In the early morning hours Kindernet was broadcast on the same channel between 06:00 and 09:00 (CET). As of April 3 of 2012 Comedy Central is also available in HD. Since 1 November 2013, Comedy Central is broadcasting 24 hours a day, replacing Kindernet between 06:00 and 09:00 (CET). 〔(Einde Kindernet, Comedy Central 24 uur per dag ), Totaal TV Nieuws, October 2, 2013〕 From November 2011 the digital channel Comedy Central Extra is broadcast by cable company Ziggo. These broadcasts include the American satirical program The Daily Show and stand-up shows. On 1 October 2011, Comedy Central underwent a rebranding for the new logo. In 2012 the channel started with HD broadcasts, beginning on April 3, 2012 at UPC and from July 2, 2012 at Ziggo. It is broadcast increasingly in native HD on Comedy Central.
