Land and Sea is a locally produced Canadian documentary television show broadcast in Newfoundland and Labrador on CBNT-DT in St. John's, and on all CBC Television outlets throughout the province. It has been on the air since 1964 (interrupted only by a short cancellation in the early 1990s, but revived after an outcry from fans), and is the longest running regional television program on CBC Television. Originally a black-and-white program, it began broadcasting in colour in the late 1960s/early 1970s. There is also a Maritime version of Land and Sea which is broadcast on the full CBC network on Sunday afternoons, and episodes from that version are often alternated with Newfoundland-based episodes.
