The Random Channel

The Random Channel (shortened to TRC in Random News broadcasts) is a television channel that serves as the national broadcaster in the Random Region. Launched on March 15, 2010, it airs a wide variety of programs for people of all ages. All shows that are epic, random, epic, or any combination of the three, they go on this channel. It has a sister channel called The Steamed Clams Channel, which launched in January 2018 and primarily airs programs aimed at children of all ages until night. The channel sometimes uses the tagline "Piano!", a reference to Toontown the quote from the clip "The Science Show" from asdfmovie.

Its offices, headquarters, and transmission centre (made out of 20-year old plasticine glued together and painted to look like bricks) are all located at the Jane Addams Memorial Tollway on I-90 in Belvidere, Illinois. Its other headquarters is located in a old converted red roof Pizza Hut.

It is commercial free. (IT’S AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) All revenue for the channel is provided by and the Random Region Government.

From 2010 to 2015, The Random Channel near-exclusively aired animated content. After the former CEO stepped down in early 2016, it was announced that the channel would begin "broadening their horizons" by airing teen-oriented sitcoms acquired from other networks.

On August 24th, 2021, a baby programming block was launched known as Junior Random On September 1st, 2021, the kid-friendly cartoons were transferred to an afternoon programming block known as RandomToons and another major update was made the following day when they announced that many cult classic cartoons (Ex. Mickey Mouse and Looney Toons) would become RandomToons. On June 28th of 2022, the RandomToons got their own channel where they would play 24/7. Despite this, the RandomToons still air on The Random Channel. On January 2nd, 2023 the channel gained an official mascot known as Meapster McTubaRoller. He appears in bumpers played between shows.

The channel's random on-air graphics are designed by Klasky Csupo. Yes, that Klasky Csupo.

History
In late 2009, the Random Region Government was granted a broadcast license for what would become their country's national broadcaster. Three months later on March 15, 2010 at 12:00 AM (EST), The Random Channel launched as a way to not only broadcast local news, but to also provide entertainment for citizens of all ages. The first program to air was a test pattern, followed by the very first Random News broadcast. This broadcast featured a Meapist gathering at The Random Mall and the controversial demolishment of a dated statue in the capital.

Current programming
The Random Channel operates using programming blocks. The average schedule consists of news segments in the morning, children's programs in the afternoon, family programming in the evening, and finally adult programming at night. Holiday specials count as family programming, so they are aired alongside the regular shows for that lineup.

devemos dar notícias aleatórias seu próprio canal? (should we give random news its own channel?)

-- I Forgor My Name 💀 (talk) 10:23, 29 August 2021 (UTC)

Sure.

-- TallAutism2006 (talk) 01:13, 3 September 2021 (UTC)

There should also be individual pages for each of the channels, the programs they air and the schedules for each of these channels
