The community included media professionals and TV producers and programmers, from whom 30 people were selected as a sample by the method of snowball and achieving theoretical saturation. It was an in-depth interview tool. And data were analyzed using selective open-axis coding method. Results: The findings showed that 51 open codes in 14 central dimensions affect the branding of television talk show. Conclusion: Based on the model obtained from the present study, in order to brand a television program, it is very important to observe ethical components as a central category.
