Relaunch the VIVA UK and Ireland TV channel as 5VIVA!

The Issue

 

Viva ceased broadcasting on all platforms at 6:00 am on 31 January 2018, with the final music video shown was Spice Girls' "Viva Forever". A day before, it was removed from Freesat, and the network's website was redirected to the MTV charts webpage. From 1 February, DTT's channel 57 began carrying a part-time placeholder broadcast of 5Spike +1. The 5:00 am – 6:00 pm hours previously used by Viva were now used to extend 5USA +1 into daytime.[11] Throughout February 2018, the temporary Valentine's Day–focused MTV Love network replaced it on Sky and Virgin Media, before being replaced by now defunct channel MTV OMG from 1 March 2018.

 

This made people in the UK very upset as they preferred VIVA instead of MTV OMG and how Up Your VIVA was so nostalgic to people as they showed both music and entertainment shows.

The VIVA TV channel was launched back in 1993 in Germany and TMF UK was launched on October 2002 which then got replaced by Up Your VIVA in October 2009.

They also used to have Nickelodeon programing blocks like Nickelodeon, NickJr and Noggin.  So I wanted to make this pettion possible to see if 5 or Channel5 can revive the channel as 5VIVA they can relaunch VIVA under the Channel5 branding because Channel5 has 5 TV channels they have the main Channel5 channel, 5Star, 5USA, 5Select, 5Action and Milkshake also used to be another channel called 5Spike which that channel got shut down in 2020 but anyway since Channel5 has got 5 TV channels but what if they had 6 TV channels like if the British version of VIVA was brought and carried over to Channel5 or 5 they can make 5VIVA as their 6th channel and have a variety of reality, music and entertainment shows they can also think of new idents and branding for 5VIVA including the bold and striking fonts.

 

So if we can get Paramount  International Networks here in the UK to relaunch VIVA UK again as 5VIVA they can make that channel even better and they can get someone to host the channel too like they did before back in 2009 as for their new content and TV shows well they can reair the shows from MTV, Comedy central, VH1, Nickelodeon, NickJr and NickToons.

 

Also in the mornings they should air the kids childrens programming blocks like Nickelodeon NickJr, NickToons, TEENick and of course Noggin from 6.00 am to 9.00 am daily.

 

Not to mention that they can come up with a new slogan too including the ones for special occasions.

As for the relaunch trailer that's up for them to decide.

They even relaunched Club MTV not that long ago and that channel took MTV Hits's channel space. 

So if Club MTV can return then so can 5VIVA.

So who's with me let's protest to and try to get Paramount Skydance to relaunch the VIVA UK and Ireland channel as 5VIVA.
