VH1 (stylized as VH-1) is an American pay television network owned by Paramount Global. The channel was originally created by the Warner-Amex Satellite Entertainment division of Warner Communications and American Express, and launched on January 1, 1985. The original purpose of the channel was to build on the success of MTV by playing music videos, but targeting a slightly older demographic than its sister channel.

History[edit]

VH1 was initially known for its focus on softer, more adult-oriented music videos, including genres such as jazz, R&B, and soft rock. Over time, the channel expanded its programming to include a variety of music-related shows, reality television series, and other entertainment content.

1980s[edit]

In its early years, VH1's programming included music videos and concert footage from artists such as Elton John, Billy Joel, and Aretha Franklin. The channel also featured music documentaries and interview shows.

1990s[edit]

During the 1990s, VH1 began to diversify its programming with shows like Pop-Up Video, which provided trivia and commentary on popular music videos, and Behind the Music, a documentary series that explored the personal lives and careers of famous musicians.

2000s[edit]

In the 2000s, VH1 shifted its focus towards reality television, with shows like The Surreal Life, Flavor of Love, and Rock of Love with Bret Michaels. These programs were highly successful and helped to redefine the channel's identity.

2010s and Beyond[edit]

In recent years, VH1 has continued to produce popular reality TV series, including Love & Hip Hop and RuPaul's Drag Race. The channel has also aired various award shows and special events.
