MTV Hits is an American digital cable television network that is owned by Viacom Media Networks. The channel primarily broadcasts music videos and its format resembles that of MTV before the addition of other programming to that network in the 1990s, and the slow decrease in its reliance on music video programming. Like MTV and VH1's other spin-off channels, MTV Hits is based on an automated "wheel" schedule that was introduced during the early years of MTV2.
