History
RMN-TV Channel 8 was the first TV station of Radio Mindanao Network. It was launched on August 28, 1991, thirty-nine years after it start, RMN was now venturing into television. And also RMN finally granted a permit to broadcast on UHF 31 in Metro Manila. This station was planned on the same year but it was launched in 1992 together with BEAM Channel 31 in Metro Manila. It was started as Cinema Television (or CTV-31) in 1992. It was also the first UHF station to be inspired by a movie television. And on year 1997, it had its broadcast rights form E!, an American-cable network channel that features fashion and lifestyle show, which is lately known as E! Philippines. But in the year 2003 RMN decided to cancel its operation to TV network, citing financial constraints and poor ratings.
On July 3, 2011, UHF 33 in Central Cagayan De Oro and all RMN TV stations nationwide returned as a test broadcast, right after Globe Telecom acquired 39 percent of BEAM and Altimax Broadcasting Co., retaining RMN as its real owner. And then on it was branded as BEAM Channel 33 and The Game Channel on August 15, 2011. Recently, The Game Channel stopped broadcasting on December 24, 2011, to give way to its new sister station CHASE which was broadcast in an evening block of The Game Channel. The Game Channel leased its operation on BEAM and transferred its operation to cable, while CHASE remains on this network and took its 24‑hour broadcast. On September 7, 2012, when they aired 24 on CHASE, an animation signage plugged and written like this: "Another Jack TV is rising, coming soon on this channel". This was the part of Solar TV Network, Inc. plans to use this channel assignment to aired the said network.
