Overview

Favorit TV is a Romanian television channel dedicated to folk music, traditional culture and popular entertainment. It is operated by Centrul Național Media, the Romanian media group that also runs the Național TV family of channels. The channel launched on 15 December 2004 and has since built its identity around Romanian popular and folk repertoire, Orthodox calendar information, traditional customs, and lifestyle segments such as natural remedies and Romanian cuisine. The channel's schedule is dominated by music programming. Flagship strands include 'Favoriții sunteți voi' (a viewer-oriented music show), 'Show Popular', 'Familia Favorit', 'Glasul cântecelor noastre', 'Dor de cântec, dor de neam', 'Medalion de interpret', and 'Călător prin folclor'. Favorit TV also airs news, sport and weather bulletins, teleshopping blocks, and special competitions such as 'Mi-s român și cânt de mic', organized with the Asociația Tineret Artă Cultură to showcase young voices. Beyond music, the channel's website and programming reflect a broader traditional-Romanian lifestyle proposition: 'Tradiții și obiceiuri' (traditions and customs), 'Farmacia naturii' (natural remedies), 'Bucătăria favorită' (Romanian cooking), and an Orthodox calendar. This mix positions Favorit TV as a niche cultural and music channel rather than a general-entertainment broadcaster. Favorit TV is part of the Centrul Național Media stable alongside Național TV, Național TV 2, Național 24 Plus and a sister service, Favorit TV 2. Its website, favorittv.ro, carries the tagline 'Televiziunea cântecelor noastre' ('the television of our songs') and offers live streaming, a program guide, song lyrics, and useful information sections.
