In 1991, the channel was criticized by the Muslim community of Surabaya for airing
Wonder Woman which, according to newspapers, focused "unduly on the physical attributes of women", and an episode of
Wok with Yan involving the preparation of a pork dish, both during
Ramadan. The station took Wonder Woman off the air until the end of Ramadan and apologized for the specific episode of Wok with Yan. Station manager
Mohamoad Noer demanded that SCTV would review its programming following the scandal. Television series made in western countries gave SCTV an impact, whose signal at the time went as far as villages in
Banyuwangi.[1]
On 18 February 2011, the commissioners of its parent companies
Indosiar and SCTV agreed to a merger, although this was subject to government approval due to both companies going public.[2] In 2014, SCM won the lawsuit in an attempted merger which had previously been hampered by taxes.[3]
Programming
Local programming
In 2001, SCTV's
affiliated television station in East Java launched the East Java edition of
Liputan 6 SCTV which can only be seen in Surabaya. The North Sumatra edition of Liputan 6 SCTV is seen on SCTV Medan at 9:30 am and re-run at 4:00 pm on SCTV; this version debuted in 1997. Depending on the relay station, additional then-local television channel in Jakarta O Channel (now
Moji) programming may also be seen.
TV series
To produce TV series, SCTV previously turned to Indonesia's leading production house, such as Multivision Plus, Starvision Plus, Prima Entertainment, Soraya Intercine Films, Screenplay Productions, Amanah Surga Produksi (AS Productions), and Mega Kreasi Films, to present various of the most popular soap operas.
In February 2017, production company SinemArt Productions Indonesia left their long-time channel
