The correct title of this article is jtv. The initial letter is shown capitalized due to technical restrictions.

jtv is the name given to a series of Australian television programs which started broadcast in July 2006, as a television spin-off of national radio broadcaster Triple J. They are broadcast on ABC and ABC2 as well as available online. As with Triple J, it focuses on youth-oriented (18-35) programming.

A "teaser" web page and advertisements were released on the ABC in early July. The full site at http://jtv.com.au went live on July 27, 2006. jtv's first broadcast was on July 28, 2006, with the debut jtv live being broadcast the following night: a You Am I concert recorded at the Hyde Park Barracks in Sydney.

Programs include:

jtv (Friday nights on ABC) - a behind the scenes look at triple j, interviews, and live performances
jtv saturday (Saturday mornings on ABC) - a music video show hosted by Rosie Beaton. This program features a countdown of the Top 20 Super Request tracks, as voted by Triple J listeners and jtv viewers.
jtv XL (Tuesday nights on ABC2) - an extended version of the Friday night edition of jtv.
jtv live (various times on ABC and ABC2) - live concert events, similar to Triple J's Live at the Wireless show.

There are also shows featuring documentaries and comedy, although specific dates and times have not yet been released by the station.
