Rebrand or Re-imagining?

[edit]

Not too sure how to approach this...

In reference to the edit User:Mrschimpf by I don't think the Hillsong Channel counts as a rebrand of The Church Channel. TCC carried televised services from churches submitted by any church, the Hillsong channel is very different to what The Church Channel was in terms of content, it's totally different except for the filler content (partner content) from TBN.

  • [2] - Hillsong Channel Content
Reimagining isn't a common television industry term; re-branding is used when a channel changes their format considerably (re-imaging can also be used just as well). Nate (chatter) 09:42, 2 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Programming

[edit]

I think it's a good idea to keep the list of current original programming that currently air on the Hillsong Channel. I don't know why someone got rid of the list of programming. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Millejoe001 (talkcontribs) 07:43, 28 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The list was removed because it contained almost entirely non notable programs -- Whats new?(talk) 01:36, 29 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hillsong Channel and TBN Inspire are different!

[edit]

I am currently watching the online streams for both channels. The content is different. Hillsong Channel is airing a Hillsong Conference 2018 highlight, while TBN Inspire is airing a program about Israel. Furthermore, almost every reference to Hillsong is removed from Watch TBN. The results I see are from TBN in-house programming, not Hillsong programming.

Since both channels are distinct and air distinct programming, I believe it is best to create one article per channel. Hillsong can still be mentioned on TBN Inspire for its history of over-the-air carriage. --LABcrabs (talk) 17:39, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I have checked it again now, and both channels are airing the same Joseph Prince programming. Only the logo at the top right changes. The live streaming technology also appears to be identical, with one difference: Hillsong Channel is limited to 720p, while TBN Inspire broadcasts at up to 1080p. I will update the article once I figure out the similarities and differences between both channels. --LABcrabs (talk) 00:51, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Splitting proposal

[edit]

I propose that portions related to Hillsong Channel be split into a separate page called Hillsong Channel. As I explain in my comment above, Hillsong Channel and TBN Inspire broadcast different programming at many given times, but partner programming such as Joseph Prince may air on both channels simultaneously. They also broadcast at different resolutions. The Church Channel and TBN Inspire can remain on the TBN Inspire article, with a brief mention of Hillsong Channel formerly being broadcast over the air. The article for Hillsong Channel can cover the current iteration, as well as the channel's history.

For reference, here are links to live streams:
