Télé Liban (1972-1981) Lebanese Broadcasting Corporation (1988-2004)
Studio El Fan (Arabic: ستوديو الفن) was a Lebanese talent show broadcast on Télé Liban during the 1970s, and early 1980s, and Lebanese Broadcasting Corporation during the late 1980s, 1990s and early 2000s in Lebanon and throughout the Arab world. Like the Olympics, the show ran every four years for an entire calendar year. Contestants from all over Lebanon competed. The best contestants in the different singing categories were awarded gold, silver or bronze medals. In 1988, the show was bought by the Lebanese Broadcasting Corporation. In 2009, the show was bought again by Murr Television, and the show is currently airing with a whole new format.
Created by Alfred Barakat and Simon Asmar, the show hosted many of today's Lebanese and Arab stars, such as Majida El Roumi, Walid Toufic, Ragheb Alama, Diana Haddad, Mona Maraachli, Nawal Al Zoghbi, Elissa, Wael Kfoury, Rami Ayach, Bassem Feghali, Jean-Marie Riachi, Fares Karam, Fadl Shaker, Assi El Hellani, Suzanne Tamim, Haifa Wehbe, Darine Chahine and many more.
