8.1 Domestic Free Television Programme Services
During the period under review, drama series remained the
dominating programme genre during prime time on the Cantonese
channels. Generally, drama series on ATV were mainly imported
from the Mainland and Taiwan, while those on TVB were mostly
in-house productions. Nevertheless, both stations also broadcast
some Korean and Japanese drama series. Apart from drama series,
there were a number of popular station-produced quiz cum game
shows and cookery show programmes.
