TV Channel Overview
Televisora Andina de Mérida (TAM) is a Spanish-language regional television
channel based in Mérida, Mérida State, Venezuela. Established in 1982,
the station grew from an initiative supported by the Archdiocese of Mérida
and developed as a free-to-air regional broadcaster in the Venezuelan Andes.
Local news and opinion programs form an important part of TAM’s schedule, covering public affairs and issues affecting communities in Mérida. The channel also presents educational, agricultural, health, cooking, cultural, and entertainment content. Religious programming remains visible in the schedule, reflecting the station’s Catholic origins, while children’s programs, films, and dramatic series add broader general-interest material.
TAM continues to combine locally produced programs with selected content from outside sources. Its long-standing regional orientation is reflected in programming tied to local institutions and community concerns. Its focus on Mérida’s public life, together with news, community information, faith-related programming, and entertainment, gives the channel a distinct local identity within Venezuela’s television landscape.
