TVHits (stylised as TVH!TS) is an Australian subscription television channel that focuses on dramas. The channel launched on 1 January 2014, replacing TV1.
In August 2013, it was announced that Foxtel had failed to complete negotiations with the TV1 General Entertainment Partnership for a new carriage deal for their channel TV1, an Australian general entertainment channel decidated to hit television series, and would ultimately replace it with another general entertainment channel once TV1's carriage deal had expired. It was announced in October that TVHits, a channel owned and operated by Foxtel Networks, would replace TV1 on 1 January 2014.
On 1 January 2014, the channel launched on pay television provider Foxtel (which included its streaming service Foxtel Go as well as its IPTV service Foxtel Play) as well as on Australian IPTV provider FetchTV.
At launch, TVHits' programming primarily consisted of hit American shows from Warner Bros., Carsey-Werner, Sony Pictures Television, CBS Studios International and Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. However, following the rebrand of 111 on 1 November 2015, the channel's sitcoms moved to 111 and as a result, the channel now focuses on dramas.
