kabel eins (literally: cable one) is a commercial television channel in Germany. It started business on February 29, 1992, as the Kabelkanal and belongs to the ProSiebenSat.1 Media AG. The channel is largely known for showing classic American films and series and documentaries. It is considered to be the "little sister" (or "brother") channel of ProSieben (i.e Pro 7). In recent years, kabel eins has regularly taken over TV series from ProSieben when they were not successfully enough for Pro 7 standards. The best example of this is Without a Trace, which was considered a failure on Pro 7, but is quite successful on kabel eins. It also overtook several shows from RTL II, like King of Queens, Cat's eye and others.
