Veronica

Veronica is a Dutch commercial television channel currently owned by SBS Broadcasting B.V., a joint venture between Sanoma Media Netherlands and Talpa Media Holding. The channel was launched as TV10 Gold on 1 May 1995, then became TV10, Fox, Fox 8 and V8, before becoming Veronica on 20 September 2003. The channel is dedicated to young adults and the male audience. Veronica is time-sharing with Disney XD: Disney XD broadcasts on daytime and Veronica on night time, the practice that began when Saban International bought TV10 in January 1997, and launched Fox Kids slot on the channel. It is not to be confused with the Veronica Association. SBS licensed the trademark name Veronica from the Association and also owns the Association's former magazines Veronica Magazine and Totaal TV.
