Decades is a digital broadcast subchannel in the United States, owned by Weigel Broadcasting.

The channel was originally partnered with CBS and was dedicated to celebrating the history of television by showcasing classic programs from throughout the 20th century. The channel initially had a different theme every day they would focus on, repeating a block of movies and shows fitting that theme all day. Eventually it was changed to have set programs during the morning and evening, including talk and variety shows from the 60s and 70s, while the afternoons included the "Daily Binge," a marathon of a different show each day.

The channel channel, launched in 2015 under the name Decades, was originally partnered with CBS and was dedicated to celebrating the history of television by showcasing classic programs from throughout the 20th century. The channel It initially had a different theme every day they it would focus on, repeating a block of movies and shows fitting that theme all day. Eventually it was changed to have set programs during the morning and evening, including talk and variety shows from the 60s and 70s, while the afternoons included the "Daily Binge," a marathon of a different show each day.



There have been two constants throughout the various changes, however. The first was the "Weekend Binge," where the channel would dedicate almost the entire weekend (Noon Saturdays until 6:00am Monday) to a long marathon of a single show. The second is its own original documentary program ''Through the Decades'', which airs every Monday through Friday. The show, hosted by Bill Curtis, Kerry Sayers, and Ellee Pai Hong, uses archival local news broadcasts to chronicle news and events that happened in the world of politics, entertainment, and more on that date since the invention of television. Certain episodes will be dedicated to a single topic. For example, every May 4th, the show will dedicate itself to ''Franchise/StarWars'', taking a look at not just the films, but the cartoons, comics, novels, and more.

When a new President of the United States is elected, the few days before their inauguration speech will see Decades air a marathon of every televised inauguration from every past President.

Decades is a digital broadcast subchannel in the United States, owned by Weigel Broadcasting.

The channel was originally partnered with CBS and was dedicated to celebrating the history of television by showcasing classic programs from throughout the 20th century. The channel initially had a different theme every day they would focus on, repeating a block of movies and shows fitting that theme all day. Eventually it was changed to have set programs during the morning and evening, including talk and variety shows from the 60s and 70s, while the afternoons included the "Daily Binge," a marathon of a different show each day.

However, in 2018, Weigel and CBS replaced Decades in most markets with Creator/StartTV, both on terrestrial broadcast and on streaming services like [=YouTube=] TV, likely due to flagging ratings from competition with Creator/MeTV and Creator/AntennaTV. The channel split from CBS entirely and switched to being affiliated with local Fox stations, greatly reducing its coverage around the country. The lineup was changed once again, with a renewed focus on variety shows and sitcoms, and the morning block known as "Television Through the Decades," with two-hour blocks dedicated to the 1950s, 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s respectively.

There have been two constants throughout the various changes, however. The first was the "Weekend Binge," where the channel would dedicate almost the entire weekend (Noon Saturdays until 6:00am Monday) to a long marathon of a single show. The second is its own original documentary program ''Through the Decades'', which airs every Monday through Friday. The show, hosted by Bill Curtis, Kerry Sayers, and Ellee Pai Hong, uses archival local news broadcasts to chronicle news and events that happened in the world of politics, entertainment, and more on that date since the invention of television. Certain episodes will be dedicated to a single topic. For example, every May 4th, the show will dedicate itself to ''Franchise/StarWars'', taking a look at not just the films, but the cartoons, comics, novels, and more.

When a new President of the United States is elected, the few days before their inauguration speech will see Decades air a marathon of every televised inauguration from every past President.

The channel also produced a documentary called ''Eyes of the World: The Rise of Creator/WalterCronkite and the Evening News''.
