What Channel is CMT on DIRECTV?

If you are an avid country music fan who loves to follow the life and virtuosity of aspiring country music stars, chances are you’re more than familiar with the CMT channel. A good number of Millennials among you would nostalgically recall the days of CMT Signature Series (1994-2002), the CMT Saturday Night Dance Ranch (1994-1999) and the CMT Delivery Room (1994-2001). From vintage and classic country music videos to club-themed music and what’s new on the music video scene, CMT was the only place devoted to all of that and more back in the day. Albeit, with multiple transformations through the years, the network has shifted its focus towards other genres of programming, country music enjoys a special spot.

CMT Channel – A Quick Overview

Owned by ViacomCBS, CMT is a 37-year-old American TV channel that takes pride in being the first nationally available channel dedicated to country music. Initially, the channel aired content related to country music only—country music videos, special programming, concerts, biographies of country music stars. But over time it expanded its scope to include original lifestyle and reality shows, as well as acquired general entertainment programming.

So, the network’s existing programming includes lifestyle entertainment and unscripted reality shows with a southern outlook. Most original and acquired programming is unrelated to music. But, staying true to its roots, CMT still airs a music video block everyday, which primarily depicts mainstream hit country songs. While videos from crossover Americana, and other similar alternatives are also showcased.  

The network is available to approximately 92 million households in America with a pay-tv subscription.
