Television in Argentina
consists of a mix of football, soap
operas ( telenovelas ),
sport, chat shows, game shows and
more football. For something a
little more informative, try TN
, one of the best channels in terms
of heavyweight news coverage (
telenoticias ), and you'll also
find bulletins on ATC, Telefé
and Canal 13 . Cable TV is
common in many mid-range hotels, and
you'll pick up English-language news
programmes such as CNN and,
somewhat less commonly, the BBC
World Service . Fox and
ESPN cover worldwide sports,
including baseball, NBA, and the
English Premiership football.
Syndicated foreign programmes on
Argentinian terrestrial TV include
two giants: The Simpsons and
The Teletubbies .
