"Bravo", musical shows, televised games

First Mega show and TV shows in Greece. The "Bravo", with Roula Koromila, on the logic of the Italian variety, has swept everything in its path.

This show was also something that he had never done before. The New Year in 1997. On the platform of the show, Dionisis Schinas asks the huge Katie Gerbi at a wedding!

In the era of social media, this looks like … everyday life. But we repeat: we are in 1997. And a marriage proposal on live TV was an unprecedented thing …

Mega Star was even a legendary show. It was presented by Natalia Germanou and it was … a regular musical appointment on Saturday night.

From the Mega program, they also played a lot of game shows. With the "Grand Bazaar" of Andreas Mikroutsikos to write the story. Who can forget "Master Zon"?

All this represents only a few of Mega's "diamonds". Some of the productions that have "built" the brand name of the TV channel. A station that has left an indelible mark in the Greek media.
