Czech and Slovak media and television developments

Overview

Media landscapes in the Czech Republic and Slovakia have seen various shifts in film and television programming. In Slovakia, a historical film by Juraj Štepka regarding Ján Golian, a leader of the Slovak National Uprising, has drawn attention for its technical ambition despite critical debate over its narrative complexity. Additionally, a French-format talk show has experienced divergent outcomes, succeeding on Czech Television while being suspended on the Slovak commercial station JOJ due to low viewership.

In the Czech Republic, television programming has seen strong performance from the romantic comedy ‘Sladký život’, which attracted over 520,000 viewers on TV Nova. Meanwhile, Czech Television is preparing to premiere ‘Hec’, a new six-part crime mini-series centered on a police investigation into a local tragedy.
