Television film

A television film, alternatively known as a television movie, made-for-TV film/movie, telefilm, telemovie or TV film/movie, is a film with a running time similar to a feature film that is produced and originally distributed by or to a terrestrial or cable television network, in contrast to theatrical films made for initial showing in movie theaters, direct-to-video films made for initial release on home video formats, and films released on or produced for streaming platforms. In certain cases, such films may also be referred to and shown as a miniseries, which typically indicates a film that has been divided into multiple parts or a series that contains a predetermined, limited number of episodes.
