Play TV

תקציר

Play TV is a late night/early morning phone-in quiz show produced by Telemedia InteracTV and broadcast by TV3 Ireland from May 2009 – March 2010. The show was broadcast live every night of the week, Monday to Sunday, from 12:00am to 3:00am from InteracTV's headquarters in Budapest, Hungary. The programme was very controversial, with numerous complaints against it made to the Broadcasting Authority of Ireland.

TV3, however, justified it by saying they got money from PlayTV which saved jobs from being lost during the recession. Two years after TV3 removed Play TV from its schedules, it began to air Psychic Readings Live in the same slot. Newspaper reports compared the controversy generated by Psychic Readings Live to Play TV, with one saying "it will remind TV3 of a past life".
