Due to debt, the company Barrandov Televizn Studio is blocked by banks and cannot carry out financial activities.

On Monday, a municipal court in Prague allowed the television company to lift a newly created personal moratorium, allowing the company to protect itself from the virus and continue operating.
The personal moratorium is a new tool introduced into Czech law last year. It aims to help companies that find themselves in a difficult financial situation and become insolvent in the event of prolonged insolvency. At the same time, it should be noted that thanks to the determined measures, they will be able to operate and pay their debts. However, Barrandov Televizn Studio must prepare a revised bill and submit it to the operator by the end of the month.

Barandov Television obtained the license to digitize the terrestrial broadcast and began broadcasting on January 11, 2009. It originally belonged to Barandov Film Studio, from which it took its name. Soukup bought it from owner Tom Grenko in 2012.
Over time, Soukup became his station's main broadcaster, gradually managing talk shows, news and lifestyle magazines. According to Barand, television gradually began to lose women, while in 2017 it showed 8.66 percent of viewers among 15-year-olds, a year later it was 6.91 percent, and in 2022 it was 3.21 percent. Television's economic power is associated with low viewership.
