The Power Station (TV channel)

The Power Station was a short-lived British television channel that broadcast between 1994 and 1996. It was known for its focus on action, adventure, and science fiction programming. The channel was operated by SelecTV and was available on cable and satellite platforms.

The programming on The Power Station consisted largely of imported series from the United States and Canada. Notable shows included RoboCop, Highlander: The Series, Street Justice, and various animated series. The channel aimed to cater to a primarily male audience interested in genre entertainment.

The Power Station ceased broadcasting in 1996 due to financial difficulties and low viewership. Its demise was part of a wider shakeup in the British cable and satellite television market at the time. The channel is remembered by some as an early example of a niche television channel attempting to establish itself in a rapidly evolving media landscape.
