More on Canale 5
Description from Wikipedia:
Canale 5 is a Italian private television network of Mediaset, the media branch of Fininvest (controlled by Silvio Berlusconi). Canale 5 was the first private television network to have a national range in Italy in 1980, based on a local channel, TeleMilano 58, founded in 1978.
Much of its early content came from American television shows dubbed in Italian, a common trait on Italian television today. Mike Bongiorno, the host of Lascia o Raddoppia?, was also wooed away from RAI to host an early quiz shows on TeleMilano - an important step in building a following of Mediaset's newest channel.
Today Fininvest controls 35% of Mediaset. The logo of Canale 5 was originally formed by the number five beside a long biscione (a snake, the ancient symbol of Milan). In the eighties the reptile was replaced by a bigger number leaving only a stylized head on the top, and a flower was added (see picture). In 2000 Canale 5 launched Grande Fratello (Big Brother), the first reality show in Italy. This was the beginning of a new era of television marked by the medium of television referring to itself both as an important part of daily life and treated itself as a member of the family or a close friend, sometimes called as "autoreferencia." In 2005, RIS Delitti Imperfetti was launched, an Italian fiction inspired by CSI: Crime Scene Investigation. There are many Italian fictions (loved by the public) and the most famous are: Carabinieri, Distretto di Polizia, RIS Delitti Imperfetti and Elisa di Rivombrosa.
In 2005 news editor Enrico Mentana was replaced by Carlo Rossella.
