VIETV is a Vietnamese-language broadcast television network based in Houston, Texas, United States. Established in 2011, VIETV has broadened its over-the-air presence through affiliates located in major U.S. cities such as Los Angeles, Orange County, San Francisco, San Jose, Dallas, Atlanta, Philadelphia, Boston, and Washington, D.C.. The affiliates in Houston, Dallas, Los Angeles, and San Jose also provide live streaming services accessible via Vietv.com. To enhance content accessibility beyond traditional broadcast zones, VIETV introduced the UNO IP set-top box for delivering IPTV content directly to television sets.
The network maintains six production studios situated in Houston, Northern and Southern California, Boston, and Philadelphia. VIETV’s original programming includes news segments like Evening NEWS and NEWS @ Nite, as well as lifestyle shows such as It's Your Birthday, Cooking with Chef Cam-Yuet, Beauty by Tiffani, World Travel, and legal discussions on The Law & Legal Issues, which is hosted by VIETV president Robert Pham.
History
In May 2009, Houston saw the debut of its first Vietnamese-language channel, VAN-TV 55.6, broadcast on subchannel 55.2 of KTBU. The channel was acquired by VietV in 2015 following the retirement of its founders Ban Vu and Bich Ngoc Nguyen (also known as Vicky Vu).
