Channel DDD Logo
Channel DDD is a TV channel run by King Dedede and hosted by his sidekick Escargoon in Kirby: Right Back at Ya!, primarily used in numerous smear campaigns and ploys against Kirby. It first appears in the episode 6 "Un-Reality TV".
The channel is a satirical take on real-life TV channels, with incredible amounts of Dedede-centric advertisements and parodies of real TV shows and movies. The shows airing on the channel are usually integral to the plot of episodes and frequently teach the dangers of false information spread through by politically-motivated news networks and perpetuated through the tactical censorship of political enemies, usually Tiff who is often the voice of reason in such situations because of her belief that TV is "stupid" and her skepticism of it.

Trivia[]
- It is established that there are hidden cameras inside the TV sets that allow Dedede to see the viewers at home but this is seemingly never brought up after the channel's debut episode or actually used in any episodes.
- Despite claiming she hates TV, Tiff can be seen very infrequently enjoying Channel DDD, indicating she might not entirely hate TV.
