SIC - Sociedade Independente de Comunicação (Portuguese for "Independent Society of Communication") is a Portuguese television network and media company, which runs several television channels. Their flagship channel is the eponymous SIC, the third terrestrial television station in Portugal, launched on October 6, 1992. SIC is owned by Impresa, a Portuguese media conglomerate. Other channels operated by SIC carried on satellite and cable TV in Portugal are:
[edit] HistorySIC was the first private television channel to operate in Portugal. In its first years of existence, SIC was owned by a consortium led by Francisco Pinto Balsemão, and backed by Controljornal (now Impresa Jornais, a holding that contains Impresa's newspapers and magazines), Impala Editores, BPI and Rede Globo. SIC was also the first TV channel to acquire huge audiences in just a few years of existence. The most watched programmes in Portugal belong to SIC, which reflect the crativity and sense of innovation of the channel. SIC became widely known in Europe not only for achieving high viewing figures just 3 years after launching, but for also being the subject of an Arte documentary, "Cette Télévision est la Vôtre" (directed by Mariana Otero). Nowadays, SIC has a programming largely based on talk shows, Brazilian soap operas produced by Globo, portuguese soaps, gameshows and sketch shows. Like the other major broadcaster, TVI, SIC airs international TV series such as Criminal Minds, the various CSI series and Entourage always after 1 a.m. SIC also relies largely on Globo productions, due to an exclusivity contract which obligates SIC to broadcast every soap opera produced. In-house productions include occasional reality shows and comedy sketch shows, which include "Malucos do Riso", a long-running series with focus on dramatized jokes and Gato Fedorento.
