All of the channel's content is dubbed into Albanian, although the vast majority of programs leave songs in their original language, accompanied with Albanian subtitles. The audio track can be switchable to the original language of dubbing as well; a similar system to SAP. A few shows on the channel are Albanian originals.

The channel airs promos featuring its mascot, four letters modelled after a pig that spell the word Çufo. The title and the music of the channel are based on a famous 1982 Albanian cartoon, Ndodhitë e Çufos (Çufo's events). No commercials or promos are shown between shows, but rather after them.
