Luis TV

Luis TV (LTV) is a Filipino international cable and satellite television network launched on June 3, 2014 by SBCA. It airs 24 hours of content daily and maintains a mutualistic relationship with its competing networks.

History
Luis TV was launched on June 3, 2014 by. The network had quickly grown within the following months leading to the creation of the Luis TV Group of Companies which include iLaro! Video Games, Luis TV Productions, and the Luis TV Network. Its first close ties with a competing newtork started with TIG, then known as Blue Box TV which was run by The Imperial Ghost who was a co-writer on Luis TV's then-flagship program SpongeToons which ran until 2015.

It then continued on to create some of the most well-known programs on the wiki such as Basket Sponge (which was another co-produced program with TIG) which is still one of the most popular LTV programs to this day, Rags to Riches (which transferred ownership to The Terrible Travis), and Bikini Bottom Survival, the first stand alone produced original spin-off on LTV.

Prior to 2017, networks on the wiki were mostly mutually co-existing together. However, things changed when the two new powerhouses of SBFW Networks rose, Fox Kids and Temmie Central. LTV began losing its popularity within this period. However, instead of competing, it collaborated with both networks, even leading to the creation of Fox Kids (Philippines). It has mainly remained as one of the most well-recognized networks on the wiki alongside Fox Kids and Temmie Central.

On March 16, 2018, LTV began broadcasting in the high definition 1080i resolution format.
