TV on-air presentaton update #8

What happened in the world of Malaysian TV presentation last week?

The Anugerah Drama Festival was aired on TV3, complementing Drama Festival that was held on the weekend at Berjaya Times Square. It aired live on 22.2.2014 between 9:00 pm and 10:39 pm, followed by the next programme which is a telemovie as usual at 10:41 pm. A global livestream was set up for the live event on Anugerah Drama Festival's website. Early promos for Anugerah Drama Festival which was released on TV3 and TV9's Youtube channels show the two presenters of Anugerah Drama Festival standing at Studio B Sri Pentas. This is the first Anugerah Drama Fetsival event but I'm not sure whether this will continue next year. The new season of Bintang Mencari Bintang premiered the next day after Anugerah Drama Festival was held.

Tonton live TV streaming had set up a special global livestream which is the Johor Bahru Chingay Festival on 20.2.2014 for one hour at 4:00 pm which is simply a simulcast of 8TV's coverage without the commercial breaks inserted. Here are a few snapshots which are an advertisement on Tonton TV schedule and the latter two are slides.




Astro Tutor TV PMR changed its name to just Astro Tutor TV MR because the PMR examination has changed to a new one starting this year.

TV1 has reverted its new time banner (as reported in the last update post) to the old one which is the existing version which has the 1 Malaysia logo used since November 2013 when I last spotted the channel on 22.2.2014. TV1's new time banner is used for a short while. TV2's new time banner is still used as usual.

TV1's Berita Nasional at 8:00 pm made two reports about RTM's old children's programme Mini Parlimen. The first report was aired on 22.2.2014 which is about Mini Parlimen in its first incarnation in the 1980s and meeting with its original presenter and and some former Mini Parlimen's contestants. The next day's report was about Mini Parlimen's current incarnation.

TV1, TV3, NTV7 and Bernama TV carried the live broadcast of the launch of BR1M 3.0 in the morning of 22.2.2014. Bernama TV carried the live broadcast via relay from TV1. TV3 aired some episodes of Canimals after the live broadcast until 11:30 am. TV1 replayed a portion of the BR1M 3.0 launch which is the launching speech by the Prime Minister on the same day at 8:30 pm and ended at 9:06 pm.

Hypp TV confirmed via Twitter that it had carried the coverage of Winter Olympics.  It was carried on Hypp Sports 2 HD ch 702 and Hypp Sports 3 HD ch 703. Hypp TV and Astro are the only two Malaysian broadcasters that carry the Winter Olympics as far as I know.
