U was an interactive youth-oriented New Zealand television channel, owned and operated by TVNZ. The channel launched on 13 March 2011, and featured reality programming, as well as an interactive live show and music content. It replaced the now defunct TVNZ 6. Leading up to the launch of U, there were 13 days' worth of promotional videos and programming information aired to advertise the new channel. Initially, U closed down every night at midnight, playing the Goodnight Kiwi animation to signal the end of nightly broadcast. During its closedown period of 12-midnight to 12-noon, the channel looped a video of non-stop dancing with text reading U 'returns at midday'. From February 2012, the channel began broadcasting informercials from midnight until midday, except on Sunday mornings, when it is illegal to broadcast adverts. On Sunday, the channel closes down as usual, with infomercials played until 6am, a graphic is displayed from 6am until midday, and then the broadcast 'returns at midday'. In April 2013, the channel launched "U late", a late night version of U live without the music videos. Described as late night antics and chat, live and interactive every evening. The channel ceased broadcast on 31 August 2013. ==Pre-launch== In preparation of the launch of U, TVNZ established a Facebook page for their new channel, giving fans information and offering one person the chance to schedule a selected segment of programming on the new channel for a month (known as ''U tv''). On the evening of 28 February 2011, TVNZ 6 was officially shut down, allowing TVNZ to air promotional material for the new channel. At 3pm on 9 March 2011, TVNZ activated its ''U live'' application on Facebook,〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=U Live App Launch on Facebook )〕 which, upon the launch of the channel, would allow users to share content and have it displayed as part of the ''U Live'' TV show. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「U (TV channel)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
