Prior to 2025, Medicine Hat was served by one over-the-air English-language station, CHAT-TV, channel 6, carrying programming from Rogers Sports & Media's Citytv network and before, Canwest's E! service. The station was closed on June 3, 2025, due to financial troubles.
All of the city's other television services are rebroadcasters of stations from Calgary as Medicine Hat is not designated as a mandatory market for digital television conversion. All broadcasting stations broadcast only in analogue.
After CHAT-TV disaffiliated from CBC Television service in 2008, Calgary's CBRT then set up a retransmitter in form of CBCA-TV-1 12 in Etzikom. That transmitter was shuttered with other CBC rebroadcasters in 2012. Alberta's Radio-Canada station, CBXFT-DT Edmonton, is also available on cable.
There are two "cable" television providers in Medicine Hat, Shaw Communications and Telus. Shaw carries American network affiliates from Spokane, Washington.
