Comedy Central (Swedish: Comedy Central Sverige) was a Swedish television channel owned by Paramount Networks EMEAA. Viacom International Media Networks have said that the channel will feature both original Swedish productions made for the channel and imported content.[1]
The channel applied for license to broadcast in the terrestrial network in Sweden in February 2008 and on March 27, 2008 they were granted a license to broadcast nationally between 7 p.m. and 3 a.m. (initially timesharing with Nickelodeon) from January 1, 2009.[2][3]
The channel launched on January 1, 2009, opening with an episode of South Park and the Comedy Central Roast of Pamela Anderson. During its first month, the channel launched on Boxer, Canal Digital, Com Hem, Tele2, Telia Digital-tv, SPA, Borderlight and IP Sweden.[4] The channel was added to the Viasat platform on September 1, 2009.[5]
On October 5, 2010, The Daily Show premiered on Comedy Central in Sweden, having previously been broadcast on Canal+ and Kanal 9.[6] The show is broadcast at 7 p.m. Swedish time, only 14 hours after its original U.S. broadcast, and then repeated at 11.05 p.m. This is unusually fast as American talk shows are normally shown with a one-week delay in Sweden.
After almost 5 years of timesharing with Nickelodeon, Comedy Central got a separate channel in November 1, 2013.[7]
The channel ceased broadcating on January 15, 2019, being replaced by Paramount Network.[8][9]
