History

In 2015, the channel revamped its graphics and program line-up, and the programming schedule was overhauled yet again.

In March 2018, Jeepney TV featured the Hero Zone (a former anime block of ABS-CBN's main channel in 2006) as a two-hour weekend morning anime block, beginning with Yu-Gi-Oh! Arc-V and KonoSuba.[3]

In July 2018, Jeepney TV became available on ABS-CBN TVplus for a free trial basis until its franchise expiration on May 5, 2020.[4]

On 1 June 2020, Jeepney TV took over ABS-CBN's channel space for ABS-CBN TVplus users due to its franchise being expired, along with Asianovela Channel, which also took over S+A's channel space.

On June 30, 2020, Jeepney TV suspended broadcasting on both ABS-CBN TV Plus and Sky Direct due to the alias cease and desist order by the National Telecommunications Commission in connection with the expiration of ABS-CBN franchise. However, Jeepney TV continues to broadcast on Sky Cable and other cable television providers.

gollark: It seems like just bodging in a 0.5 second delay makes it work basically fine somehow.
gollark: I'm kind of amazed that this system actually generally works, to be honest.
gollark: Now to waste another 3 or so diamonds on moar tracks.
