During [[apartheid]] in [[South Africa]], many foreign programmes on [[South African Broadcasting Corporation|SABC]] [[Television in South Africa|television]] were dubbed in [[Afrikaans]].

Radio programs have been simulcast on television since the invention thereof however, as of recent, perhaps the most visible example of radio shows on television is ''[[The Howard Stern Show]]'', which currently airs on [[Howard 100 and Howard 101|Sirius Satellite Radio]] as well as [[Howard Stern television shows#Howard Stern On Demand|Howard TV]]. Another prominent radio show that was simulcast on television is ''[[Imus in the Morning]]'', which until the simulcast ended in 2015, aired throughout the years on [[MSNBC]], [[RFD-TV]] and [[Fox Business Network]], in addition to its radio broadcast distributed by [[Cumulus Media Networks|Citadel Media]]. Multiple [[sports talk]] radio shows, including ''[[Mike & Mike]]'', ''[[The Herd with Colin Cowherd]]'' and ''[[Boomer and Carton]]'' also are carried on television, saving those networks the burden of having to air encores of sporting events or other paid sports programming which may draw lower audiences. In [[New Zealand]], breakfast programme [[The AM Show]] airs on television channel [[Three (TV channel)|Three]] and was simulcast on radio station [[Magic (New Zealand radio network)|Magic Talk]]; both networks were owned and operated by [[MediaWorks New Zealand]] until December 2020, when Three was sold to [[Discovery, Inc.]]<ref>{{cite web| url = https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/shows/the-am-show.html| title = The AM Show {{!}} Newshub}}</ref> In 2022, the programme was rebranded as ''AM'' and ceased simulcasting on Magic Talk, becoming a TV-only format.
 
In [[professional wrestling]], a simulcast happened on 26 March 2001 between ''[[WWE Raw|WWF Raw is War]]'' and ''[[WCW Monday Nitro]]'' upon WWE's purchase of WCW's assets to merge the storylines of the two [[professional wrestling promotion|wrestling promotion]]s, which was the last episode of ''Monday Nitro''.
