The COVID-19 pandemic has a substantial impact on the television industry, mirroring its impacts across all arts sectors, shutting down or delaying production of television programs in many countries with consequent negative impacts on revenues (through rights and advertising sales) and employment.

Among the most noticeable on-camera effects is the more frequent use of remote locations as many on-camera personalities and interviewees broadcast from their homes.

Such measures and changes to prevent the spread of infection have been done to appeal to mandates for socialization underneath physical distancing (a.k.a social distancing) as well as commitments by production companies and broadcast organisations to keep its talents, staff, and audiences safe.

Television talk, reality, variety and game shows in the Philippines temporarily filmed without a live audience. TAPE Inc. announced on March 9 that it would stop admitting live audiences for their variety show Eat Bulaga!, which airs on GMA Network; ABS-CBN followed suit, announcing on March 10 that they would do the same for their television shows including It's Showtime, Banana Sundae, Magandang Buhay, the second season of the Philippine version of I Can See Your Voice and ASAP. GMA Network then followed suit again with Wowowin (including its Saturday primetime edition), All-Out Sundays, Centerstage, The Boobay and Tekla Show, Mars Pa More and GMA News TV's Idol sa Kusina and Tonight with Arnold Clavio.[32][33]

On March 14, 2020, ABS-CBN and GMA Network both announced that they will suspend production on its drama and live entertainment shows effective March 15 (the same day an quarantine declared by President Rodrigo Duterte enacted in Metro Manila and Cainta, Rizal).[34][35][36] Hence, ABS-CBN would air its previously aired shows temporarily in place for primetime viewing: 100 Days to Heaven, May Bukas Pa and On the Wings of Love. Additionally, the network gave its iWant TV series I Am U on its television debut. With more classic shows announced to air in a coming weeks, Walang Hanggan, The Legal Wife and Got to Believe for the afternoon programming, additionally, Wildflower, Tubig at Langis and the 2018 remake of the Chinese version of Meteor Garden on the primetime block. GMA Network followed suit with Ika-6 na Utos, Encantadia, Kambal, Karibal, My Husband's Lover, Alyas Robin Hood and Onanay.[37][38][39]

On March 18, 2020, GMA News TV and CNN Philippines announced that they will temporarily go off-air beginning March 19, with the latter going off as the Worldwide Corporate Center in Mandaluyong, where their newsroom and studios are based, is being disinfected after a confirmed case in the offices of one of the building's tenants.[40][41] The two networks eventually returned on March 20 and 23 respectively, with GMA News TV making way for a temporary full-time video simulcast of DZBB-AM and its studio programming.[42]

In an unrelated matter, ABS-CBN's broadcast licence was not renewed by its expiry date by Congress, and the company's television and radio stations were hence forced off the air by the National Telecommunications Commission on May 5, 2020, to much domestic controversy; the licence revocation is believed to involve the network's critical news coverage of President Duterte's administration, along with overall inaction from the Congress of the Philippines to renew their broadcast licence since the matter came up in 2016.[43][44] Although the reason for the closure is not directly due to COVID-19, some figures have expressed concern about its impact on public efforts to contain the pandemic. In a statement, ABS-CBN management said that "Millions of Filipinos will lose their source of news and entertainment when ABS-CBN is ordered to go off-air on TV and radio tonight (5 May 2020) when people need crucial and timely information as the nation deals with the COVID-19 pandemic".[45]

Furthermore, Albay Representative Joey Salceda warned that the network's shutdown could add up to 2,600 COVID-19 cases, as many viewers would lose a vital source of information on how to keep themselves safe during the pandemic.[46] Vice President Leni Robredo (who does not share Duterte's party affiliation) questioned the move as she believes the network's operations have helped in efforts to contain COVID-19 more than the country's offshore gaming operations, and added that the shutdown could "cost lives on top of the thousands who will lose their jobs".[47] The company's premium network ABS-CBN News Channel is unaffected as a cable-only network, continuing to provide full news updates, along with ABS-CBN's social media accounts and YouTube channels, and its international networks, including The Filipino Channel. On May 8, 2020, the newscast of the network's flagship news programme, TV Patrol began to broadcast on ABS-CBN TV Plus channels TeleRadyo and Cine Mo!.[48]

Pantawid ng Pag-ibig: At Home Together Concert was a benefit concert, broadcast on March 22.[49][50]

On February 7, the government announced that the framework scheme Disease Outbreak Response System Condition (DORSCON) was raised to Orange,[51] while Suria held a live concert special celebrating the channel's 20th Anniversary, which was the last live program to have a live audience,[52] among which President of Singapore Halimah Yacob was ushered as guest-of-honor.[53] The last three episodes of the 26th season of another live-broadcast Channel 8 game show, The Sheng Siong Show (with the first episode airing a day after on the 8th), began suspending their studio audience, though contestants are still invited on-stage for studio segments including the Thousandfold Cash Reward;[54] previously live-broadcast programs airing at the time such as Te:Ra Seh 4.0 and Sinar Lebaran 2020, also followed suit and continued production without live audience.[55]

After Singapore enforced its lockdown restrictions from April 7 to June 1, Suria and Vasantham both began their broadcasts earlier at 9am starting April 8, and new local shows featuring celebrities premiered on morning and afternoon timeslots on April 9.[56][57] However, some reruns on the afternoon were pre-empt on certain days to broadcast update messages delivered by Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong. On April 12, Channel 5 brought the airing for the 2019 film Spider-Man: Far From Home earlier as opposed to a 2-3 year average gap as other films recently aired.[58] Prior to the period, medical-themed dramas Big White Duel and My Guardian Angels were premiered as 7.30pm and 9pm dramas on Channel 8 respectively to raise awareness.

Many other Singaporean shows have also postponed production or delayed broadcast to a later date, such as the monthly crime documentary television series CrimeWatch, annual Star Awards ceremony (initially on April 26)[59] and the 27th season of The Sheng Siong Show (postponed from May 9 to June 6). [60]

On April 25 at 7.55pm (SGT), all Mediacorp channels aired a short five-minute sing-along music video of celebrities and musicians singing a rendition of Kit Chan's "Home" as a tribute to commemorate the efforts of frontline and migrant workers during the outbreak.[61][62]

Both pay televisions by StarHub and SingTel (and along with their respective apps StarHub GO and CAST) also announced free preview screening during the lockdown from March 20 to June 1,[63] and from April 1 to June 30,[64] respectively. [65]

In Mexico, as the health crisis expands, it seems that there will be inevitable changes to the broadcasting schedule. Unfortunately, as the health crisis has expanded in Spain and Brazil, it is difficult to broadcast overseas sports leagues, and it is expected that there will be some influence on the production of telenovelas. In addition, since the number of diagnostic tests of per population is relatively small, it is unlikely that there will be a small number of Mexican broadcasters among the suspected patient or potentially infected population, as it is difficult to say that the situation inside Mexico is better than other developing countries. However, it is believed that the minimum number of broadcasting personnel is contributing to the operation of broadcasting companies, as all broadcasting stations seek to slow dawn and minimize and spread infection.[citation needed]

On March 11, the eighth season of Big Brother Canada suspended audiences from attending its eviction episodes.[70] During the following week's eviction episode, host Arisa Cox presented the episode from her home in order to minimize the risk of her family being infected.[71] The episode also showed the HouseGuests, who were sequestered inside the house before the World Health Organization declared a pandemic, being informed about the coronavirus pandemic. On March 24, 2020, production of the season ended. A special farewell edition episode was produced depicting the show's final days on March 24 and March 25 that aired on April 1.[72]

Both the Juno Awards[79] and the Canadian Screen Awards,[80] which were scheduled to be televised in March, were cancelled.

The 22nd Quebec Cinema Awards were also cancelled, with organizers indicating that they plan to announce the winners in another form although the details have not yet been announced.[82]

To widen their availability, the CBC and Bell Media made their news channels, CBC News Network, CP24, CTV News Channel, and Ici RDI available as free previews on pay television providers, and freely available for streaming online without TV Everywhere authentication.[83][84] The CBC temporarily replaced its local evening newscasts with a simulcast from CBC News Network combining content from local and national journalists from across the country,[85] a decision that was criticized by the Premier of Prince Edward Island Dennis King, as CBC News: Compass is the province's only local daily television news program.[86] By the end of March, however, local news service began to be restored in most markets.[87]

In addition to Movie Night in Canada, CBC Television also launched a number of other special short-run series during the pandemic, including What're You At? with Tom Power, a Sunday evening talk show which will see Tom Power remotely interview both celebrities and ordinary Canadians,[88] and Hot Docs at Home, a Thursday night series which will broadcast several feature documentary films which had been slated to premiere at the cancelled Hot Docs Canadian International Documentary Festival.[89]

The COVID-19 pandemic has been the most impactful event to U.S. television production since the 2007–08 Writers Guild of America strike,[93] which disrupted nearly all scripted television production.[94] The majority of television entertainment programs have suspended production due to the pandemic.[95] Broadcasters have been dependent on their remaining inventory of completed programs that have not yet aired, and the remaining completed episodes of series whose production was interrupted.[94] Due to factors such as the need to ration series that have already completed production, some programs have faced scheduling changes (such as replacing double-runs of new episodes with single episodes), delays of their scheduled premieres, or dividing seasons of programs with natural hiatuses (with the remaining episodes airing at a later date once production resumes).[96][97][98]

The major broadcast networks, including ABC, CBS, Fox, and NBC, have begun to develop contingency plans in case of extended disruptions (especially if they were to impact fall series for the 2020–21 television season), including the possibility of filling schedules with series from co-owned cable networks and streaming services, or importing programs new to American audiences from other countries such as Canada.[94]

Talk shows, including daytime and late-night shows, have largely remained on-air, but with hosts, panelists, and other participants conducting them via their homes to satisfy remote work.[99][100] Other new forms of programming themed around the pandemic have emerged, including "living room" concert specials (such as One World: Together at Home, a multi-network simulcast),[101][102] and esports events as alternatives to cancelled professional sports.[103]
