Mezamashi TV (めざましテレビ Mezamashi Terebi?) is a Japanese news magazine show broadcast every weekday on Fuji TV from 5:25 a.m. to 8:00 a.m. Mezamashi is a form of the Japanese verb mezamasu (to wake up).

Mezamashi TV also has several spin-off shows such as Mezamashi TV Aqua (めざましテレビ アクア?) (replacing Meza News which ended in March 2014), which is aired before Mezamashi TV for viewers in the Kanto region starting at 4:00 am (stations in some areas will air Meza News at 5:00 am) and Mezamashi Saturday (めざましどようび?), the Saturday supplement of Mezamashi TV which airs at a later time between 6:00 and 8:30 am.

History

In the first half of the 1990s, several news magazine shows of Fuji TV in the morning were discontinued after a short period because of low television ratings. The new show featured two presenters, Norikazu Otsuka and Akiko Yagi. Otsuka was a freelance presenter who had been a presenter at NHK. Mezamashi TV was first broadcast on April 1, 1994.

In 1997, Natsuko Kojima was appointed as an additional main newscaster.[citation needed] In 2003, Aya Takashima was appointed as a new main newscaster.[citation needed]
