VT4 (Belgium)


VT4 is a commercial TV station in Flanders, the Dutch-speaking region of Belgium. It made its mark by being the first station to introduce popular U.S. series such as “Friends” and “The Simpsons” to its audience - other current series include “Lost” and “CSI”. Its programming strategy combines local Flemish productions with international blockbuster movies such as “Casino Royal”, “Happy Feet” and “The Da Vinci Code”. To ensure high-quality entertainment, major content suppliers include Disney, Warner, Dreamworks, Paramount, MGM, New Regency, Dutch Filmworks & RCV. VT4 has also established itself as a trendsetter for Reality TV by broadcasting the flagship show “Peking Express”, “The Block” and “Temptation Island”. Due to its compelling programming, VT4 has been going from strength to strength each year since its launch. In 2006, SBS Belgium launched C-More, a VOD service that enables viewers to review or preview programs of VT4. Alongside sneak previews, all local productions of VT4 are available on-demand and in digital quality on the C-More platform.
