History
= License
=On November 24, 1959, Shotaro Kamiya, the then-president of Toyota Motors Sales Division, alongside ten other people, set up a license for Chūkyō Television Broadcasting, for the license of the third television station in the Tokai area.: 37 At that time there were an initial total of 9 companies which was later reduced to 5 companies (after 4 of the companies agreed to merge with Chukyo TV).: 37 On July 14, 1961, the Ministry of Posts (current Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications) awarded the license to Chukyo TV being designated on channel 11. Afterwards, Chukyo TV held a founding meeting on August 30 of the same year, issued 400,000 shares, with a capital of 200 million yen.: 37 On November 25, 1961, Chukyo Television changed the company name to "Nagoya Broadcasting Co., Ltd.", referred to as "Nagoya Television",: 38 on the grounds that the place name "Nagoya" was more friendly.
= Nippon TV and NET years
=On November 25, 1961, the company was renamed to Nagoya Broadcasting Network.: 38 Prior to its official broadcast, there were only two commercial broadcasters in the Tokai region: CBC (which is part of JNN) and Tokai TV (which is part of FNN and NNN).: 39 Nagoya TV then decided to become part of the Nippon TV and NET TV (current TV Asahi),: 39 which resulted from Tokai TV to become a full-time FNN affiliate.: 39
The first tests of NBN were held on March 10, 1962. Eventually, service tests were conducted on March 25 and regular transmissions commenced on April 1, at 6:50am.: 44 At the beginning of its operations, 65.8% of the programs broadcast by Nagoya TV were produced by Nippon Television, 25.7% were produced by NET Television, 5.1% were produced by themselves, and 3.4% were produced by other television stations.: 45 In June 1963, the Nagoya Television Labor Union was established.: 63 The labor relations at Nagoya TV were not harmonious in the early days. In July 1966, there was an incident where union members surrounded Nagoya TV for 23 days.: 63 However, the excessive confrontational behavior of the Nagoya TV union also caused dissatisfaction among some employees. These employees established a separate "Wakatake Association" in July 1969, and the Nagoya TV union split.: 73 In 1974, with the efforts of the labor union and Wakatake Kai, Nagoya TV became the seventh private TV station in Japan to have two days off per week.: 87

= As a sole ANN affiliate
=Since its inception, Nagoya TV has maintained a ratio of about 60% of its broadcast programs coming from Nippon TV and about 30% from NET TV. However, this caused strong dissatisfaction with NET TV, which demanded that the ratio be changed to 5:5, one half from NTV and the other from NET. In October 1972, it intervened in the program adjustment of Nagoya TV and changed the program from 20:00 to 22:00 on Saturday night to NET TV. This move aroused strong dissatisfaction with Nippon Television, and the two went to court, and finally settled with a compromise plan of adapting one hour of the two-hour NET TV program to be broadcast.: 80 This incident became an opportunity for Nagoya TV to withdraw from the Nippon Television Network.: 80 On December 27, 1972, Nagoya TV, Chukyo TV, Nippon Television, and NET TV held a four-party meeting.

The current brand, Mētele (メーテレ Mētere, derived from the first character in the name Nagoya (名, on reading "めい" mei)), and hybrid sheep-wolf mascot (Wolfy) were introduced on April 1, 2003. The design concept of Wolfy is "a wolf in sheep's clothing", which means that although it is a sheep now, it is shedding its skin and becoming a wolf TV.
