ME-TV (stylized as [=MeTV=], and as a backronym for its on-air slogan "Memorable Entertainment Television") is an American broadcast television network owned by Weigel Broadcasting and distributed by Creator/MetroGoldwynMayer that airs classic television sitcoms, dramas and classic commercials from the Creator/{{CBS}} Television Distribution (owners of the Creator/{{Paramount}} Television library), [[Creator/{{Universal}} NBCUniversal]] Television Distribution, and [[Creator/TwentiethCenturyFox 20th Television]] libraries, and a few from Creator/{{Sony}} Pictures Television, as well as several shows from other libraries that aired from the 1950s through the 1980s. Creator/WarnerBros Television recently added their programming. What started out as a local television network solely exclusive in UsefulNotes/{{Chicago}} (much to the rejoice of the people living in the Windy City) it has quickly become a national sensation through word of mouth.
