Greek television research becomes easier when domestic channels, overseas programming and digital collections are kept distinct. ERT's current public information names ERT News, ERT1, ERT2 SPOR, ERT3 and ERT Cosmos, alongside its radio services and ERTFLIX platform.
These destinations serve different interests. A program about Greek agriculture, a news bulletin and a drama selected for viewers abroad do not necessarily follow the same timetable or have the same online availability.

ERT3 brings places and everyday activity into the picture
ERT3's November 1, 2026 schedule illustrates a broad mix. Stasi ERT3 is introduced as a weekend magazine looking outward across Greece. Apo to Chorafi sto Rafi, meaning From the Field to the Shelf, examines agriculture, livestock production and the processing of their products.
The same dated lineup includes cooking, children's animation and information programs. This gives a more concrete picture than calling the channel simply regional or cultural. Food production, communities and family entertainment can coexist within one service, with individual production titles identifying the closer subject.
The overseas offering is separately described
ERT's English FAQ distinguishes access within Greece from access abroad. It describes a specific international selection that includes Greek fiction, films, documentaries, theatre, music, children's productions and material concerning Greeks around the world. It also names overseas live destinations including ERT Cosmos and The Voice of Greece radio.
That distinction is especially relevant to households following Greece from another country. A Greek domestic schedule and an overseas platform selection answer different questions. ERT's terms explain that geographic restrictions can apply, so a program listed in Greece should not automatically be treated as universally available elsewhere.
Television, radio and accessibility labels mean different things
The Voice of Greece is identified as radio, while ERT Cosmos is a television destination. Keeping those names with their medium avoids confusing an audio program with a television feed.
ERT also identifies selected accessible material through CC and AD labels. Those labels concern particular versions of programs, rather than a promise that every item has every language or accessibility option. For a Greek drama or documentary, the production's own entry supplies the useful detail. For a community or agricultural subject, the ERT3 description can provide the relevant local context without turning the whole broadcaster into one interchangeable channel.
