Is there any good show _______ television tonight?

Select the most appropriate option to complete the above sentence.

  • A.in
  • B.at
  • C.within
  • D.on

Answer: D

The answer is on: 'Is there any good show on television tonight?'

English uses on for a broadcast medium: on television, on the radio, on TV. The preposition describes the channel through which the programme reaches you, not a physical position.

In television refers to working in the industry ('she works in television'), not to a programme being broadcast. At marks a point or place and does not combine with television here. Within means inside a boundary and makes no sense with a broadcast.
