MeTV Logo
The base of the Star Junction MeTV building in GTA IV, being evidently based on MTV's Times Square studios.
MeTV (Media and Entertainment Television, referred to as Music Entertainment Television in Grand Theft Auto IV) is a television station which has been mentioned in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, Grand Theft Auto IV, and its episodes. There is a real-life channel with the same name.
The network is a parody of the television station MTV, while the logo and name bear some similarities to YouTube, a video sharing website.

In Grand Theft Auto IV, MeTV's prominence is elevated slightly, with MeTV's Liberty City office visible at Star Junction, Algonquin and referred to as the MeTV Building . The player can also download the MeTV theme for their phone from Vipluxuryringtones.com; and on Integrity 2.0, Lazlow talks about a show "on MeTV where washed-up comedians make snarky comments", based on VH1's I Love The '80s. A Maverick spawns occasionally on the building's top. An Annihilator replaces it after killing all 200 pigeons.
