History

In March 2015, the Filipino feed separated from the Southeast Asian Warner TV channel to air a different programming schedule, including selected programming from truTV.[1]

On November 1, 2015, the Latin American channel changed it to dub a programming instead of just subtitling them. This caused an uproar to most of its audience.

On November 9, 2017, Turner Broadcasting System France and Canal+ both launched Warner TV in France, replacing Syfy which became a SFR exclusive.[2]

On April 22, 2020, the French version launched in Sub-Saharan Africa in StarTimes.

On May 2, 2020, Warner TV began broadcasting the Adult Swim programming block in Latin America and Brazil, which initially included Rick and Morty, Robot Chicken, and Aqua Teen Hunger Force.[3][4][5] On May 3, 2021, Metalocalypse and The Shivering Truth were added to the Adult Swim programming block.[6] On November 8, 2021, Adult Swim was pulled from Warner TV's lineup.

On July 8, 2021, it was announced that TNT in Poland and Romania would rebrand into Warner TV from October 23, 2021.[8][9]

In October 2022, it was announced that a Warner TV channel would be launched in Italy by October 30 of the same year. However unlike other Warner TV channels, this one will be operating as a free to air channel on Italian DTT.[10]
