Bravo is an American basic cable and satellite television network and flagship channel, launched on December 1, 1980. It is owned by NBCUniversal, a subsidiary of Comcast and headquartered in the Comcast Building in New York City. Bravo originally launched as a commercial-free premium channel on December 1, 1980. It was originally co-owned by Cablevision's Rainbow Media division and Warner-Amex Satellite Entertainment; the channel claimed to be "the first television service dedicated to film and the performing arts". The channel originally broadcast its programming two days a week and—like Bravo's former sister network Nickelodeon, which shared its channel space with Alpha Repertory Television Service—shared its channel space with the adult-oriented pay channel Escapade, which featured softcore pornographic films.
