History[link]

1950s[link]

TV Record started its transmissions on September 27, 1953. It was founded by Paulo Machado de Carvalho in São Paulo, as a competitor for then-dominant Rede Tupi from Diários Associados, thus breaking the three-year old monopoly the station had in the city. It originally broadcast shows, sports, journalism, comedies and plays. In the 1950s, TV Record became recognized by their sports broadcasts. In 1959, it started airing shows featuring international celebrities such as Charles Aznavour, Nat King Cole, Ella Fitzgerald, and Marlene Dietrich.

1960s[link]

The 1960s were considered Record's "Golden Age". The peak of Record's ratings would be in the 1965–1970 period, when it became well known for its musical programs showcasing Bossa Nova and Jovem Guarda artists and its MPB Music Festivals - which opened the doors to Tropicália. It was also during the 1960s that it aired its comedic series Família Trapo, created in 1967, the same year that it started to lead the newly founded Rede de Emissoras Independentes (Independent Broadcasting Networks), whose stations aired Record programs and were the its first affiliates. In 1968 Record's fortune started to change, because of a series of fires that handicapped its production capability and the change of Brazilian public tastes, starting to lean towards Rede Globo telenovelas.

1970s[link]

Even with the sale of 50% of its shares to Silvio Santos in 1972, Record didn't manage to regain the lost ratings. It was the first television to broadcast in color in 1972, during the Festa da Uva (Grape Party) in Caxias do Sul, together with TV Rio and TV Difusora. It would later be broadcast in full-color in 1974. Before this transmissions in color, since 1962, were experimental. TV Record had a programming based on TV series, movies and cartoons, and TV shows.

1980s[link]

The formation of SBT in 1981 marked the deepening of Record's decline. In most of the 1980s, Record suffered from very low ratings, no stars in its cast and a lack of compelling programming due to extensive competition from other networks.

1990s[link]

In 1990, Sílvio Santos and Paulo Machado de Carvalho's family sold Record to Edir Macedo and its Igreja Universal do Reino de Deus.

On October 12, 1995, the network became infamous throughout the country because of the Kicking of the saint episode aired during the church late night program.

Rede Record's center of operations in São Paulo

The new owners started an aggressive redeployment of Record's public image, using the term Rede Record to refer to itself and signing broadcasting affiliates throughout Brazil. Through most of the 1990s and the first half of the 2000s (decade), Record invested in popular programming, signing stars like Ana Maria Braga and Carlos Massa, with some programming in sports (broadcast the World Cup 1998), journalism, series like Star Trek, The X-Files, Millennium and The Three Stooges, educational children's shows, and cartoons like Dexter's Laboratory and the anime Pokémon.

2000s[link]

In 2003, TV Record celebrated its 50th year of history; Record is the longest running Brazilian television network. In 2004, it began using a new slogan, "A Caminho da Liderança" ("On the way to leadership"), and released new programming.Despite the critics, the channel take a page of Globo's success, Record started to invest heavily in telenovelas and made its journalism look more like its main competitor, despite opting not to renew the contract of its anchor, Boris Casoy.

In 2007, Record, for the first time, occupied 2nd place in São Paulo's ratings,^[2] aiming to take over leadership in the 2010s.^[3]

2010s[link]

Also a first for Record, it signed with the International Olympic Committee for the exclusive rights for the free-to-air television to the 2010 Winter Olympics and the 2012 Summer Olympics.^[4]
