JIM (launched as JIMtv in 2001) is a Flemish television channel that is aimed at people aged between 15 and 24.[1] It's actually an abbreviation for "Jong, Interactief en Meer" (English: Young, Interactive and More). During its first years, the channel mainly broadcast music videos. They have since started mixing this with programs such as Brainiac and Snoop Dogg's Father Hood.

[edit] Radio station

Originally, the VMMa was planning on launching a youth radio station called JIMfm as a complement to JIMtv. These plans where later dropped.[2]
