RISE TV

RISE TV is a Greek local television channel. It was launched on as TV Πειραιάς, with emphasis put on informative and entertainment shows. It was renamed as Smart in, and four years later, Restis Media Group (Nickelodeon, Music 89.2) bought the station. As a result, it was announced that the Greek counterpart of MTV would air from the channel, later this year.

MTV Greece started airing on, after No Leaf Clover by Metallica aired as the last thing to do so on Smart. MTV's launch began with an airing of a Red Hot Chilli Peppers concert, exclusively made for MTV Italy, and an exclusive airing of a Coldplay music clip. MTV SA, the company responsible for the station, announced on, that its contract with Viacom would abruptly end, due to financial reasons, and the schedule being mostly based on reality shows. Thus, it was renamed as RISE TV in. The station's current name was based off a show that would air on MTV Greece before its shutdown.

MTV Greece
The channel combined local and international music, and aired international MTV shows (with subtitles) including Jackass, Pimp My Ride, When I Was 17, If You Really Knew Me, My Super Sweet 16, Viva La Bam, Room Raiders, Life of Ryan and 16 and Pregnant, as well as some original content produced exclusively for Greece. It would also air with subtitles, the Comedy Central show South Park, a first for Greek free-to-air television, and the Nickelodeon ones, Big Time Rush, Victorious, and SpongeBob SquarePants
