"In two short years, we've gone from a local channel in Los Angeles to a national network in 20 of the top 25 Hispanic markets. By providing affiliates with unique and compelling programming, we've grown faster and more extensively than anyone predicted," said Danny Crowe, president, LATV. "In addition, our expanded programming format has been a hit with viewers across the country. It's edgy and smart, filling a much-needed viewing niche for young Latinos."

LATV is in nine of the top 10 Hispanic television markets, reaching over 40 million households. The network is also carried on basic cable through its affiliates and in Los Angeles via cable, broadcast and DBS.

   LATV's spring lineup features two new programs:    --  Nadie es Eterno en el Mundo. LATV's first-ever drama showcases an       aspiring singer who stumbles on the way to the top, seduced by those       whom she thinks could help her succeed.  Rancheras, corridos and       boleros are part of her comeback as she forges ahead, rebuilds her       life and claims what is rightfully hers. Mondays-Fridays at 9:00 p.m.       ET.    --  Munoz Vale x 2. Roman Munoz is the perfect family man. The only       problem is that he's got two of everything: two perfect homes, two       perfect wives and two perfect families.  What's a well-meaning fellow       to do?   The mishaps and near-misses along with the final reckoning       make for a roller-coaster of a comedy.  Tuesdays and Thursdays at       10:00 p.m. ET.    

LATV's lineup also includes a four movie blocks, an evening talk show, a lucha libre (wrestling) showcase, an investigative magazine program, a behind-the-scenes look at celebrities and a lifestyle/relationship therapy hour.
