Not to be confused with Surya TV, the Malayalam language television station.

Surya Citra Televisi (SCTV) is an Indonesian free-to-air television network. It was launched on 24 August 1990 in Surabaya, East Java as Surabaya Centra Televisi, broadcasting to the city and its surrounding area. At first, the programming was similar to that of RCTI, broadcasting foreign shows and some of RCTI news programs until they could produce their own. On 30 January 1993, SCTV obtained a national license and eventually moved its operations to Jakarta, changing its name to Surya Citra Televisi. Its main offices are located in Central Jakarta, with studios in West Jakarta. It is owned by Surya Citra Media, a publicly-listed subsidiary of the technology company Emtek.

History

In 1991, the channel was criticized by the Muslim community of Surabaya for airing Wonder Woman which, according to newspapers, focused "unduly on the physical attributes of women", and an episode of Wok with Yan involving the preparation of a pork dish, both during Ramadan. The station took Wonder Woman off the air until the end of Ramadan and apologized for the specific episode of Wok with Yan. Station manager Mohamoad Noer demanded that SCTV would review its programming following the scandal. Television series made in western countries gave SCTV an impact, whose signal at the time went as far as villages in Banyuwangi.^[1]

On 18 February 2011, the commissioners of its parent companies Indosiar and SCTV agreed to a merger, although this was subject to government approval due to both companies going public.^[2] In 2014, SCM won the lawsuit in an attempted merger which had previously been hampered by taxes.^[3]

Local programming

In 2001, SCTV's affiliated television station in East Java launched the East Java edition of Liputan 6 SCTV which can only be seen in Surabaya. The North Sumatra edition of Liputan 6 SCTV is seen on SCTV Medan at 9:30 am and re-run at 4:00 pm on SCTV; this version debuted in 1997. Depending on the relay station, additional then-local television channel in Jakarta O Channel (now Moji) programs may also be seen.

TV series

To produce TV series, SCTV previously turned to Indonesia's leading production house, such as Multivision Plus, Starvision Plus, Prima Entertainment, Soraya Intercine Films, Screenplay Productions, Amanah Surga Produksi (AS Productions), and Mega Kreasi Films, to presented various of the most popular soap operas. There are Deru Debu (Beyond the Dust), Kisah Cinta Ratu Pantai Selatan (The Legend of the Queen of the Southern Sea),^[4] Melati, Permata Hati (Purest Hearts), Rahasia Perkawinan (Wedding Agreement), Bayangan Adinda (Adinda's Shadows), Heart the Series, Sephia, Putri Duyung (The Mermaid), Cowokku Superboy (My Boyfriend is Superboy), Bidadari Takut Jatuh Cinta (Fairies Who Afraid of Falling in Love), Putih Abu-Abu (White and Gray) (Since 2012), Cintaku Bersemi di Putih Abu-Abu (My Love Blooms in White and Gray) The Series (Since 2012), Diam-Diam Suka (Secret Love), Ganteng-Ganteng Serigala (Wolf Handsomes), Emak Ijah Pengen Ke Mekkah (Miss Ijah Wants to Go to Mecca), and Mermaid In Love.

On February 2017, production company SinemArt Productions Indonesia left their long-time channel RCTI for SCTV after 9 years ceased its partnership (since 2003 till 2007). SinemArt produced Anak Langit (Sky Child), Anak Sekolahan (School Child), Berkah Cinta (Love Blessing), Melukis Senja (Painting the Dusk),^[5] Rindu Bukan Rindu (Rindu is not Rindu), Bidadari Surgamu (Your Heavenly Angel),^[6] Satu Cinta, Dua Hati (One Love, Two Hearts)^[7] and rebooting the 2000s soap operas, Siapa Takut Jatuh Cinta?
