World’s First Catholic Television Station, CatholicTV Becomes First Catholic Television Network to Offer 3-D Programming

On Tuesday, March 23rd, CatholicTV announced a special 3-D version of its monthly magazine (April edition) along with special 3-D episodes of several popular CatholicTV shows. The announcement will be made during the live talk show “This is the Day”.

The April edition of CatholicTV’s monthly magazine will include a pair of 3-D glasses which will allow subscribers to view the magazine in 3-D and also to view the 3-D programming which is now offered only at CatholicTV.com. CatholicTV currently has over 1000 videos on its website. Many of these videos are full-length CatholicTV programs and are viewable in full-screen on any computer.

CatholicTV is also considering broadcasting a 3-D episode on television and may broadcast a special episode in order to gauge the demand for 3-D broadcast programming.

The idea originally came from CatholicTV’s Director Fr. Robert Reed, who thought it would be a good idea to embrace unique technologies in order to spread the Gospel.

CatholicTV.com has special 3-D episodes of the following shows at www.CatholicTV.com: These episodes are be accessible at http://www.3DCatholicTV.com
