FM is an American music television network. It launched on September 30, 2015. It replaced NuvoTV which was merged into Fuse on the same day.^[1]

History

At the 2015 upfronts, it was announced that NuvoTV will be folded into Fuse, as the network begins expanding beyond music programming and introduces a new programming slate targeting "New Young Americans".^[2] In addition, Fuse announced the launch of FM, a new music channel focusing on "up-and-coming, young, diverse talent".^[3][4] With the re-launch of the channel, the schedule is now mainly dominated by music video programming, though some shows from its previous incarnation as NuvoTV remain on the schedule, mainly in the prime time hours, along with acquired movies and stand-up comedy specials.
