TV6 (Mikaland) (Prilloverse)
TV6 is a Mikalandese television channel owned by Viasat Group. Founded in 1986 by Hase Rjo, the channel originally featured a mix of general programming, with a strong focus on entertainment and sports. However, in 2008, Rjo Holdings Ltd., the company owned by Hase Rjo, went bankrupt due to declining stock values. As a result, TV6 was sold to the highest bidder, Viasat Group. Between 2008 and 2013, the channel shared the same branding as the Prillovanian TV6.

Availability |
Under Viasat's ownership, TV6 adopted a youth-oriented programming schedule, similar to its Prillovanian counterpart, and began broadcasting a variety of international cartoons. Since the acquisition, TV6 broadcasts from Prillovania, which allows it to operate outside of strict Mikalandese advertising regulations. While the channel adheres to the conditions of its terrestrial license by not advertising alcoholic beverages, avoiding "sensitive content", and refraining from targeting children with ads, it primarily complies with Prillovanian laws.
