Cybernet (also known as Interactive) was a weekly video gaming magazine programme, originally broadcast overnight on the ITV network in the United Kingdom. The programme was commissioned by Yorkshire Television and produced by Capricorn Programmes[1] (who also produced the similar Movies, Games and Videos) and also aired on GBC TV in Gibraltar. It was also broadcast on various television stations all around the world.

The programme featured reviews, previews, tips and reports on video gaming and computer technology. It began airing on the former children's satellite and cable network TCC (who also aired various television series based on video games and television series related to video games such as the Earthworm Jim, Super Mario Bros. and Sonic the Hedgehog cartoons) in 1995, before airing on ITV on terrestrial television.
