Submit a Show
Are you creating media that you’d like aired on our channels and streamed live on our website?
Producers (that means you) are able to submit two types of show:
Single
A Single show is a pre-produced broadcast that appears only once on MNN. We generally air single shows within two weeks of application. A single show can be 28- or 58-minutes in length. Anyone can submit a show to MNN by following the directions below and adhering to our technical requirements.
Series
A Series is a weekly, bi-monthly, or monthly program. Producers can apply for a regularly scheduled series every quarter, you will need to provide us with a unique pilot episode first. Manhattan residents receive priority scheduling with proof of residency. Every episode must be either 28-minutes or 58-minutes long. All applications are due within the two weeks before the quarter deadline.
Remember: You cannot have a single show and a series airing at the same time. We also give priority to Manhattan residents and all submissions must meet our technical requirements.
