SBS Netherlands has decided to pull all its call TV type programming from its three Dutch stations, SBS6, Net 5 and Veronica. The move follows a request from the Dutch justice department, who is currently investigating call TV programming on all channels. Earlier RTL Nederland also complied with a similar request. SBS will replace the call in TV shows with a combination of Dutch and acquired productions.
