Moments that will become the foundation for a lifetime of memories.

“Fun Roads continues to celebrate how simple and spontaneous choices like a last-minute day trip can change your outlook on life.” says Jennifer Ortega Head of Programming at Fun Roads; “it doesn’t have to be expensive or complicated; any excuse to go will do.”

 KRFT-LD TV8 launched Start TV on Channel 8.4 replacing The Heartland Network and MOVIES! on Channel 8.10 on March 1st, 2021.  

MOVIES! is owned by the two super-power broadcasters - the Fox-owned TV station group and Weigel Broadcasting, the operator of MeTV, another channel that we broadcast on our Sister Station KXMP TV8 in Harrison, AR.

MOVIES! is designed to be a 'movie lover's' channel with movies that are run at the original length. There are fewer commercial minutes per hour than other channels allowing viewers to see the movies closer to the full-length format they were originally seen in.  

 Start TV is an American broadcast television network owned by the super-power broadcaster, Weigel Broadcasting. "Start TV showcases strong and resourceful female leading characters in a lineup of contemporary and proven procedural dramas. Each lead character and series embody a boldness and determination to “Start” leading the way, seeking the truth, solving the crime and defending the innocent."

KRFT-LD TV8 is immensely proud and excited to have both of these incredible networks, Start TV and MOVIES! join our amazing Network Affiliate Family of now 10 diverse, family friendly Networks!
