[4] When TNT was launched in October 1988, the original purpose of the station was to broadcast classic films and television series to which Turner Broadcasting held the broadcasting rights through its sister channel SuperStation TBS (now simply TBS). Since June 2001, the program has consisted of television series and feature films with a focus on drama, along with some sports (including NBA games, the NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Tournament, and AEW Dynamite). In September 2018[update], TNT was received by approximately 89.573 million households that subscribe to a subscription television service in the United States. [5] History Beginnings See also: Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer ' MGM Entertainment Before the launch of the channel in 1988, The name Turner Network Television was used by the Turner Broadcasting System for an ad hoc syndication service that produced and distributed various sports events for promotion on Turner's Atlanta, Georgia Superstation WTBS (channel 17, now WPCH-TV, which was separated from its national cable feed TBS in October 2007) and broadcast television stations in the United States. The Turner Network Television Syndication Service launched in 1982 to produce two exhibition games organized by the NFL Players Association (NFLPA) during the NFL strike on WTBS and its national Superstation feed. (The agreement with the NFLPA NFLPA Eighteen games broadcast by WTBS on Sunday afternoon and Monday night during the originally proposed strike season, however, were reduced to the exhibition games amid lawsuits filed by the National Football League against Turner Broadcasting and the NFLPA Union.) [6] [8] The TNT Syndication Service produced and distributed the first Goodwill Games in 1986, organized by Ted Turner himself in response to the Olympic boycotts of the United States and the of the 1980 and 1984 Summer Olympics. [9] On October 6, 1987, Ted Turner announced the launch of Turner Network Television (TNT) in a keynote speech on the opening day of the Atlantic Cable Show in Atlantic City, New Jersey – his fifth basic cable network project after SuperStation TBS, CNN, Headline News (now HLN) and the short- lived Cable Music Channel. Turner originally estimated that TNT cable systems would be offered at a monthly price of 10% per subscriber (increase to 20% per subscriber per month until March 1989), with 10 minutes of advertising per hour (three to four minutes of which for future cable systems for local advertising). [10] [11] Turner Broadcasting struggled to obtain transportation commitments from various cable providers to begin the launch plans of the proposed service, making the fate of TNT uncertain. [12] Turner also began preliminary talks with NBC to acquire a 25% stake in , with the prospect of using NBC's financial and programming expertise to get TNT off the ground; however, these discussions ended without a resolution in January 1988. [13] [14] Former logo, used from 3 October 1988 to 12 June 2001; From 1992, this logo was accompanied by a yellow oval background. In February 1988, Turner announced that tN's program would focus on films from the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM) film library – which Turner acquired in 1986 as a result of his sale of the MGM film studio to Kirk Kerkorian – and major television events, including cable films, high-profile specials, sporting events, documentaries, and miniseries. Cable systems were given the option of replacing a superstation (except SuperStation TBS) or another non-market television channel for TNT at launch, without any copyright obligations being created for the transport of the remote signal for the second half of 1988. However, the start date originally scheduled for 1 July this year has been postponed because it would raise several problems, including the procurement of channel releases and the compilation of a programme plan over such a contractually agreed period and the unfavourable promotion of a service in the summer (if usually programmed repetitions). [15] [16] On 7 March, Turner Broadcasting System System was The directors unanimously approved Ted Turner's plan for Turner Network Television, with October 3 being the station's proposed launch date. Plans are for TNT to offer 250 nights of original and live sports programs a year within five years of its debut. [17] The channel launched on October 3, 1988 at 7:55 p.m. Eastern Time, with TNT founder Ted Turner bringing a message about the launch and programming of the channel, followed by a pre-recorded performance of The Star Spangled Banner, traditionally played during the launch of a new Turner-owned network. [18] His first (which followed Eastern at 8 p.m.) was the first half of the 1939 classic Gone with the Wind, in which Ted Turner acquired the rights; the second half was broadcast the following night at the same time (both halves were repeated at 23:00 Eastern on their respective nights), with the film then shown in its entirety on this Sunday. It was said that Gone with the Wind was chosen as the station's opening programme because it was Turner's favourite film. [18] (Gone with the Wind was also the first program to air on the sister channel Turner Classic Movies when it debuted in April 1994.) The film premiered in Atlanta, Turner's hometown and home to the station's parent company, Turner Broadcasting System. TNT was originally a vehicle for older films and television shows in which Turner either already had rights or acquired specifically for the station; these films accounted for the majority of TNT programming during the first six years of operation. The original schedule also consisted of animated and live-action children's programs (broadcast from Sunday to Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time and Monday to Saturday from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time), with Western series on Saturday mornings and a limited schedule of other classic TV series in selected other periods. [18] In its early years, TNT caused controversy among film critics and fans for its broadcast of colorful versions of many classics originally shot in black and white. The channel started with an estimated 17 million subscribers, with initial coverage 6.8 times that of the largest previous cable network launch (VH1), which was launched on January 1, 1985, with 2.5 million households supposed to have received the channel. [18] The station's activities were based on the office area of Turner Broadcasting's Techwood Drive complex in Midtown Atlanta, which served as a facility for CNN Headline News from its launch as CNN2 in January 1982, until he and the parent network CNN in 1987. operations moved to downtown CNN Center. The president of Networks, Gerald Hogan, said at the time of its launch that TNT would eventually become the first cable network challenge the three broadcast networks by producing original programs that equal a quality level of a quality level and [.] significantly better than the programs that are carried out in the major American television stations; as such, the channel slowly began to add original programming and newer repetitions within two years of its introduction. [18] The station debuted on March 8, 1989, when TNT Nightbreaker, an Arms Race-era drama starring Martin Sheen (who also co-produced the film) and Emilio Estevez, premiered. [19] Extension See also: Monday Night Wars 1995 TNT debuted with WCW Monday Nitro, which took over the award as the flagship program of WCW Saturday Night's now defunct World Championship Wrestling and ran on this channel until 2000. At one point, Monday Nitro was regularly the highest-rated weekly program on cable television. The program beat Monday Night Raw, the flagship show of the World Wrestling Federation (now WWE or World Wrestling Entertainment), in ratings for 83 consecutive weeks from 1996 to 1998. [20] However, in early 1999, the program began to lose viewers to Raw, which became the highest-rated wrestling program on television due to its use of more adult storylines. The rapid decline in WCW's viewership is due to the Fingerpoke of Doom (which took place on January 4, 1999) and the company's rising losses. On 23 March 2001, WWF acquired most of WCW's assets, which had been for sale since the end of 2000; Monday Nitro aired its final episode three days later. On September 22, 1995, Time Warner, a New York City-based media company founded in 1989 by the merger of Time Inc. and Warner Bros., entered into an agreement to acquire the Turner Broadcasting System and related real estate (including TNT, TBS, CNN, Headline News and Cartoon Network, and Turner Entertainment) for USD 7.5 billion. The deal would also expand Time Warner's pay-TV holdings, as it has been owned by HBO and sister-premium service Cinemax and cable television provider Time Warner Cable since the merger of Time-Warner Communications six years earlier. (Time Warner and its predecessor Warner Communications have held an 18% stake in Turner Broadcasting since 1987, as part of a cable television-backed rescue of the company amid severe financial problems.) Under the terms, Turner would acquire a 10% stake in Time Warner and its subscription network group, which includes the Turner and Home Box Office units, and its minority stakes in and E! includes, and to hold a position on the Company's Board of Directors. (which he retained until his departure from the company in February 2006). [21] [22] [23] [24] [25] [26] [27] [28] [29] The merger was cleared on a regulatory basis on 12 September. Approved. The Turner-Time Warner deal was completed a month later, on October 10, and became the world's largest media company at the time. [30] [31] [32] The channel was also known for its late-night programming. One such program was MonsterVision, a Saturday night movie showcase that aired from 1991 to 2000. The series often had special themes, such as Godzilla Bash '94, an all-day marathon of films from the Godzilla franchise. Penn & Teller was an occasional guest host in the early years; And in 1996, MonsterVision found a permanent host in cult personality and drive-in film lover Joe Bob Briggs, who hosted a pair of contemporary horror films every week, such as Friday the 13th Part 2 and Wes Craven's New Nightmare. During the wraparound segments within each film, Briggs provided running commentary, trifles, off-color jokes and a drive-in total, as well as jokes at the expense of TNT's Standards & Practices division about the strong censorship of the featured films. That running joke culminated in a Friday, the 13th Halloween Marathon of the whole night in 1998, where it was suggested that Ted Turner wanted to kill him. Until the 1990s, TNT continued to air cartoons from the Turner Library, such as The Flintstones, Scooby-Doo, the DePatie-Freleng Pink Panther Cartoons, Dexter's Laboratory, and The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest as part of a daily block called TNT Toons. The Rudy and Gogo World Famous Cartoon Show, which ran from 1995 to 1997, was an original children's program on the channel with Warner Bros., MGM and Popeye Shorts, hosted by a titular pair of a puppet and a nanny goat. In January 1996, the station began to scale back its children's programming in competition with Nickelodeon and its sister channel Cartoon Network; At the time, TNT stopped its late-afternoon block of animated series in favor of broadcasting acquired drama series such as Starsky & Hutch and In the Heat of the Night. In 1998, TNT dropped all remaining cartoons and delegated these shows to Cartoon Network. Most of the animated series and shorts dropped also served as the core of Boomerang, a subscription channel dedicated to classic cartoons that launched on April 1, 2000. In the 1990s, TNT planned a weekday afternoon block with Due South, Kung Fu: The Legend Continues, Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of and . In 1998, TNT sought to increase its original programming by 146% by reducing its production budget, with programming costs ranging from 175 million to 200 million dollars by 2000. [34] This year, TNT took over the production of the fifth and final season of Babylon 5 from Prime Time network after the ad hoc syndication block ceased operations. The following year TNT produced the Babylon 5 spinoff series Crusade, Crusade, was canceled after 13 episodes because TNT management decided that did not fit the station's brand identity. In 2001, TNT debuted the most successful original series Witchblade, which ran for two seasons and ended in 2002. Shift towards drama Former TNT logo, used from 2001 to 2016; the current logo is loosely based on this design. On June 12, 2001, TNT was extensively renamed, with the introduction of a new Trollbäck + Company logo and a new slogan, We Know Drama, a repositioning of the network that Bradley Siegel, then president of Turner Entertainment Networks, had explained through extensive focus group research with frequent TNT viewers. The slogan emphasized the station's new focus on dramatic programming, including sports and off-network syndicated dramas such as Law & Order, NYPD Blue, ER and Judging Amy. [35] In addition, NASCAR coverage switched from TBS to TNT from the 2001 season onwards, as the management of the Turner Broadcasting System believed it would fit more with TNT's new format than with TBS. On January 1, 2003, TNT launched a replacement feed called TNT Plus, although this does not appear to have ever been reflected in the channel's on-air identity. The obvious sole purpose of its creation was to force renegotiation with subscription providers to increase transportation fees – with some system operators suggesting that Turner was seeking a 10% increase in subscriber fees for the channel – to pay for TNT's new NBA and NASCAR contracts long before the broadcaster's distribution agreements with the providers were scheduled to be renewed. In theory, TNT Plus should have been the only carrier of Turner's NBA and NASCAR coverage from that point on, while all vendors still wearing the original TNT would have seen replacement programming instead. [36] [37] Although it appears that Comcast did not immediately sign up to wear TNT Plus, there is no evidence that Turner actually pulled his sports programming from the original TNT. [38] On December 7, 2008, TNT unveiled an update to its logo, which shows it mainly in a silver or sometimes gold bevel. The slogan We know drama remained, but the broadcaster added a stronger focus to its original series and announced plans to carry three nights of original programming a week during primetime, starting in 2009. [39] In 2012, TNT renamed itself a new slogan: Drama, Period. (visually displayed as a drama. with the TNT logo as the period symbol), with the logo recolored to match the themes of its shows. On May 14, 2014, TNT changed its in TNT drama and introduced a new slogan, Boom. The branding campaign reflects the station's reorientation to action-adventure, sci-fi, fantasy, mystery, suspense series alongside its slate of crime dramas. [40] The channel-purchased channel-bought Rights in September for the next five Marvel Studios movies starting with Avengers: Age of Ultron. [41] In 2016, TNT changed its logo after 15 years. AT&T Owner On October 22, 2016, AT&T announced an offer to acquire Time Warner for USD 108.7 billion, including debts it would take over from the latter; The merger would bring Time Warner's various media properties, including TBS, under the same umbrella as AT&T's telecoms holdings, including satellite provider DirecTV. [42] [43] [44] [45] Time Warner shareholders approved the merger on February 15, 2017; However, on February 28, FCC Chairman Ajit Pai announced that his agency would not review the deal and left the review to the U.S. Department of Justice. [46] [47] On November 20, 2017, the Justice Department filed a lawsuit against AT&T and Time Warner to block the merger, citing antitrust concerns related to the transaction. [48] The proposed merger, which had already been approved by the European Commission and Mexican, Chilean and Brazilian regulators, was upheld by a court ruling on June 12, 2018, after District of Columbia District Court Judge Richard J. Leon ruled in AT&T's favor and dismissed the DOJ's antitrust claims in the lawsuit. The merger was closed two days later on June 14, when the company became a wholly owned subsidiary of AT&T under the renamed parent company WarnerMedia. The U.S. Court of Appeals in Washington unanimously upheld the lower court's ruling in favor of AT&T on May 26, 2006. [49] [50] [51] [52] [53] [54] [55] [55] [56] On 4 March 2019, WarnerMedia underwent a major reorganization of its broadcasting equipment, effectively dissolving Turner Broadcasting, and WarnerMedia's television properties would be split into three divisions within the WarnerMedia umbrella, with TNT joining WITH TBS , truTV and HBO, chaired by Bob Greenblatt, was broadcast to WarnerMedia Entertainment. AT&T did not specify a timetable for the changes to take effect, although WarnerMedia had begun removing all Turner references in corporate communications and press releases, citing the unit's networks as divisions of WarnerMedia. [57] [58] [59] See also: Wednesday Night Wars On May 15, 2019, the Upstart promotion All Elite Wrestling and WarnerMedia announced a broadcast agreement to offer a weekly prime-time wrestling program on TNT – later called All Elite Wrestling: Dynamite, which premiered on October 2, 2019 as a flagship program of AEW – marking the re-entry Network into the professional wrestling scene after the above-mentioned conclusion of World Championship Wrestling 18 years earlier. [60] High-definition feed TNT HD logo, used from 2008 to 2016. TNT HD is a high-definition simulcast feed of TNT that broadcasts with an image resolution of 1080i; the HD feed, which was launched on May 21, 2004 and with the network's coverage of Game The 2004 NBA Western Conference Finals between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Minnesota Timberwolves. [61] [62] TNT was criticized for its practice of sending a significant amount of 4:3 standard definition content stretched to 16:9 on its HD feed, using a nonlinear process similar to the panorama setting on many HDTVs that some viewers have called stretch-o vision. [63] [64] [65] Although other cable channels for their HD simulcast feeds have also fallen into this practice, TNT is the most frequently cited, as it was one of the first channels to offer such a simulcast. The nonlinear elongation process leaves objects in the center of the screen with approximately their original ; Objects on the left and right margins are distorted. Program main article: List of programs of TNT (U.S. TV network) TNT currently broadcast a mixture of original drama and reality series, and repetitions of dramas that originally aired on the major broadcast networks. The original programs currently on TNT (as of September 2018[update]) include Animal Kingdom, Good Behavior, The Last Ship, and Claws. The station's daytime, overnight and Saturday morning schedules are heavily dominated by reruns of current and former network series such as Castle, Bones and TNT Mainstay Law & Order, while the weekday morning schedule focuses on sci-fi, supernatural and fantasy series. Movies have been a pillar of TNT since its . TNT has film licensing agreements with its sister company Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc. (mainly releases from Warner Bros. Pictures and ), Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures (mainly releases from Walt Disney Pictures (live-only), Touchstone Pictures, Marvel Studios, Lucasfilm and 20th Century Studios), Columbia Pictures, Universal Pictures and . Since the release of Turner Classic Movies, TNT's film program has moved from classic films outside of special screenings of films such as The Wizard of Oz (which airs every November around Thanksgiving weekend) in favor of newer films released in the 1980s, with a focus on films released after 1995. Moved. Currently, most of the movies broadcast on TNT are from the drama and action genres, but some comedy films continue to be broadcast regularly on the channel. Movies are usually broadcast on the channel during the night hours on most nights and for much of the day on weekends. From 1997, TNT broadcast a 24-hour marathon of the comedy film A Christmas Story Christmas Eve until the evening of the First Day. The marathon ran simultaneously on the sister channel TBS until 2009, when the annual event became exclusive to this channel. Since 2014, however, TNT has started shooting the film again for 24 hours. Once every weekend, TNT airs a primetime movie with limited limited Under the title More Movies, Less Commercials branded in on-air promos. Sports Programming Main Article: Turner Sports National Basketball Association Main article: NBA on TNT In July 1989, the Turner Broadcasting System announced that TNT would receive partial pay-TV rights to the National Basketball Association from the 1989-90 season as part of a transfer of the existing NBA broadcast rights of TBS SuperStation. [66] As a result, TNT's NBA coverage would consist of games involving other teams within the league, with TBS' rights reduced to only game broadcasts that included the franchise of the home market of the US television station WTBS, the Atlanta Hawks (which Ted Turner had bought in 1977 from Atlanta-based real estate developer Tom Cousins). Under the original contract and a subsequent five-year contract signed in December 1989, TNT played about 50 regular-season and 25 playoff games during the first season of his contract. (TBS SuperStation/WTBS, in acquiring exclusivity for the Hawks, extended its schedule to 25 away games through the acquisition of Atlanta rival WGNX [now CBS affiliate WGCL-TV]. [68] [68] In the early 1990s, some Hawks game broadcasts shown on TNT and TBS were darkened within 35 miles of the home team's arena. This restriction was lifted in 2000, so TNT had the right to be the exclusive broadcaster of any game it was trying to wear. TNT had regularly broadcast NBA games on several Tuesday evenings until the 2002–03 season. The weekly television broadcasts were then postponed to Thursday night in the 2003–04 season, when TBS was unable to participate in NBA coverage due to the league's contract extension with Turner Sports. In addition to wearing regular-season NBA games, which are usually broadcast as doubleheaders most weeks, TNT also broadcasts opening night games, the NBA All-Star Game, and the vast majority of games within the conference playoffs and one of the Conference Finals (the Eastern Conference Finals in odd numbers and the Western Conference Finals in even years) under the NBA. Since 2015, the All-Star Game has been simulcast on TBS to mute any internal competition, although unlike most TBS/TNT simulcasts such as the SAG Awards, this is not explicitly mentioned in advertising and only tNt's broadcast is mentioned in any way. College basketball main article: NCAA March Madness (CBS/Turner) In 2011, TNT received a share of television rights to the NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Championship as part of a comprehensive known as NCAA March Madness. THE deal also involves CBS and its Turner colleagues TBS and TruTV. In straight years, Turner holds the exclusive rights to the Final Four-onward; next to the main broadcast on TBS, TBS, Final Four and Championship were simulcast, branded as Team Stream powered by Bleacher Report by TNT and TruTV with alternative commentary teams representing the participating teams. [69] Or t Golf main article: Golf on TNT TNT on television the PGA Championship,[70] with full coverage of the first two rounds and early coverage of the weekend rounds. The rights have been in place since 1999, and the current contract with the PGA of America expires in 2019, after which ESPN will take over the rights. [71] In 2003, TNT acquired the rights to broadcast the Thursday and Friday rounds of the Open Championship[72] as well as the rights to weekday rounds of the Women's British Open and Senior British Open. ESPN acquired the Open Championship rights in 2009. From 2000 to 2007, TNT also won the BIennial Presidents Cup on the PGA Tour. [73] The television rights were acquired by Golf Channel from the 2009 event as part of the entire subscription TV deal with the PGA Tour. UEFA From the 2018/19 season, Turner Sports owns the rights to the UEFA Champions League and the Europa League, the two highest levels of European competition, under a three-year contract. Forty-six Champions League matches and the finals of both competitions (as well as the UEFA Super Cup) are broadcast on TNT each season, with the rest streamed on B/R Live, a newly created streaming service run by sister sports news website Bleacher Report. [74] [75] In June 2020, Turner Sports announced that they would terminate their contract to broadcast the UEFA Champions League a year earlier. [76] Major League Baseball (overflow) Main article: Major League Baseball on TBS TNT carries limited playoff coverage from MLB to TBS, but only in rare exceptions, when a long-running or additional innings game temporarily concludes a bump in the coverage of the newer game from TBS to TNT until the previous game, when the coverage on TNT ends at the end of the current half-innings and the game completely passes to TBS (for this reason, TNT's schedule in early to mid-October usually consists of little original content). In the 2011 and 2012 playoffs, it carried seven pre-planned Division Series games in full before Major League Baseball decided to use MLB Network in the coming years in a shift in planning to allow for more night game cars. NASCAR main article: NASCAR on TNT In 2001, TNT acquired the subscription television rights for the selection of the Winston Cup and Busch Series races as part of a deal between NASCAR, NBC and TNT. Turner Broadcasting originally planned to have TBS as a pay-TV partner during the negotiations, which would have allowed it to retain the rights to NASCAR events, but decided that NASCAR broadcasts would better fit with TTT's image campaign We Know Drama. TNT retained NASCAR rights after NBC failed to renew its broadcast contract after the 2006 NASCAR season. Broadcasting contract of the broadcaster The organization ended in 2014 as a result of a tv deal with NBC that took effect this year, earning him the rights to the final 20 races of the 2015 NASCAR Sprint Cup season and the rights to Sprint Cup events until 2025 (with NBCSN as a pay-TV partner). [77] The last tnt-broadcast race was Camping World RV Sales 301 on July 13, 2014. National Football League main article: NFL on TNT In 1990, TNT received partial television rights to the NFL's Sunday Night Football package in a comprehensive agreement that split games with ESPN. The NFL on TNT consisted of three or four preseason game broadcasts and television broadcasts of regular-season games in the first half of each season through 1997. Under NFL broadcasting rules, TNT distributed its game broadcasts to television stations on the local markets of the teams that played in this week's game. International European, Middle Eastern, African, Australian, Latin American and Asian versions of TNT were released in the mid-1990s exclusively for films, mainly from the archives of MGM and Warner Bros.

The most famous TNT channel in Canada, Latin America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa, Asia-Pacific was (and is) the French version, which used graphics similar to the flagship US channel at the time. Latin America Regional versions of TNT were introduced in Latin America in 1991; the channel usually shows movies, along with some series. All programs were presented in Spanish and Portuguese until 2015, when the channel returned it and provided the dubs; However, the channel also offers subtitles (which can be removed or placed by the user) on digital operators.

Scandinavia The Scandinavian channel TNT was originally launched by the tabloid Aftonbladet as Aftonbladet TV7 on 9 October 2006. Aftonbladet sold the station at the end of 2007. In August 2008, it was sold again to NonStop Television. On March 1, 2011, the station was relaunched as TNT7 after Turner Broadcasting System acquired NonStop Television owner Millennium Media Group. On March 1, 2012, the channel was renamed TNT and the 7 was dropped from its name. The Netherlands and Flanders On 10 April 2012, TNT HD Benelux launched in Belgium, which was exclusively broadcast on Telenet. The first month of the service was offered to consumers free of charge, with a subscription that is then required to display the channel. TNT HD Benelux offers a mix of comedies, movies and current TV series (such as Falling Skies, Shameless and ) as well as reruns of older series (such as ER, The West Wing and Smallville).
