ABC Entertains programmes and identity
ABC Entertains is a current Australian ABC channel with an entertainment focus. The broadcaster’s own service information places drama, comedy, lifestyle and films within that identity. It is a distinct destination from the primary ABC TV channel, the dedicated news service and the broadcaster’s younger-audience services.
A drama, comedy episode, feature film and lifestyle programme offer different ways into the schedule. Some need earlier story context, while others can stand alone. The current Australian channel name keeps those choices separate from the former ABC portfolio. Its iview live stream follows the New South Wales programme schedule, an important distinction when comparing a local television listing with the broadcaster’s digital live service.
From the schedule to your screen
A television channel follows a running schedule. Its broadcaster may also have an app or on-demand collection, but a programme listed in one place does not automatically identify the same edition in another. Keeping the original channel name with a title makes the viewing route easier to recognise.
What to look for in the programme guide
Drama, comedy, lifestyle, films and NSW timing of the iview live stream.
