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 June 14, 2021, it was announced that the TNT channels in Germany would be rebranded into Warner TV from September 25, 2021.[7]
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]
On February 27, 2023 it was announced that TNT in Spain would be rebranded as Warner TV on April 14, 2023.[11]
In January 2024, it was announced that Warner TV would be launched in the Czech Republic sometime in the same year,[12] and on March 4, WBD has confirmed that the channel would launch on April 2.[13]
