The station began as TV3 on 24 December 1995. Majority ownership was originally held by the Roman Catholic Church, and much of the initial programming was faith-oriented.
TV3 encountered poor ratings and financial losses from its outset, with a reported ratings share of 1.2%. On 13 February 2003, Ivan Caleta, a businessman from Croatia, purchased 75% ownership of TV3 then proceeded to offer more popular programming. Viewership in 2004 increased to a 1.7% audience share, but remained a distant fifth place behind other public and private television services in Slovenia.
On 1 November 2004, the channel's name was changed to Prva TV. On 1 July 2006 Prva TV was bought by Swedish media company Modern Times Group. On 1 October 2006, the channel's name was changed back to TV3, this time in reference to the Modern Times Group corporate brand TV3 Viasat.
