Vice (formerly known as Viceland and also known as Vice TV) is an American basic cable channel that launched on December 2, 2019, replacing H2 on most multichannel television providers in the United States. It is a part of the Viceland family of television channels by Vice Media, itself a joint venture controlled by A&E Networks. Due to low ratings, Vice would eventually engage in channel drift, shifting its focus to news and investigative programming. The channel adopted its current name on December 2, 2019.
