OK2
OK2 is a Great Gianan commercial television network owned by OK2 Great Giana Holdings, who makes a duopoly with GXRF-TV 31. As its name implies, OK2 depends on the Hopelandian OK Network with the 2 referring to the channel number of its flagship station, GXTV in New Shire City.

TotalAccess 2[edit | edit source]
By 1993, Channel 2 was already owned by the Unity Company of Hopeland for 28 years. When Unity announced that it was bidding for a nationwide television network in Hopeland, and since Great Giana largely depended on Hopelandian networks, it was pretty obvious that Power Station 2 (as it was called) decided to align itself to the soon-to-be-launched TotalAccess network.
GXTV became a charter international affiliate of the new network on January 11, 1995, under the TotalAccess 2 brand. Terrestrial coverage was limited to New Shire City and in the remaining parts it was seen on cable. In these areas, TA2 programming was picked up by out-of-town relays of City 31 TV.
The 1995 network realignment has led to TA2 gaining a prestiged position in ratings and ad revenue.
