TNT (U.S. TV channel)

TNT is an American basic cable and satellite television channel owned by the Turner Broadcasting System, a division of Time Warner. The original purpose of the channel was to play spillovers from its sister channel TBS by airing classic films and TV shows; however, since June 2001, the channel's programming consists of television series and feature films with a focus on drama, along with some professional sporting events (such as NBA games, March Madness, and PGA golf).
