Go programs on Japanese TV
There are several go programs on TV in Japan. They can be divided into:
- Programs on regular TV channels
- Programs on satellite TV channels
- The Igo/Shogi channel (on satellite TV)
Programs on regular TV channels
- NHK Education (channel 3) at 1200 to 1400 on Sundays. This is the NHK Cup. The prime time slot, following the shogi program from 1000-1200 shows how popular go is in Japan
- TV Tokyo (channel 12) at 0545 to 0615 on Sundays. The time and format changed in April 2003. It used to be 0600-0645 showing several tournaments during the year: The Hayago Senshuken and the Shin'ei. These have been combined into a new tournament called JAL Super Hayago? (I need to check that). The time limits changed from 30 seconds per move to 10 seconds per move, still with 10 periods of longer thinking time (1 minute?)
