1982–1988[]

TNT 1982

Turner Network Television started out in 1982 as the name that Turner Broadcasting originally used as a syndication service. In this particular case, it was used for sporting events. The service was used for two exhibition games organized by the NFL Players Association during the NFL strike in 1982, as well as the first Goodwill Games.

1988–1995[]

TNT logo original

TNT was originally launched as a network on October 3, 1988 as Turner Network Television. Although it carried sports events like its predecessor, the network initially primarily focused on general entertainment, including classic and original made-for-cable films as well as classic Western, sitcom and drama series.

TNT

In 1995, Turner Network Television dropped its full name and went on simply by TNT. This logo's design usage was coincidental with the launch of WCW Monday Nitro, and dropped following the shutdown of World Championship Wrestling (WCW).

TNT (2001)

On June 12, 2001, TNT underwent an extensive rebrand, which saw the introduction of a new logo designed by Trollbäck & Company. This logo was coincidental with the purchase of the channel's parent company by America Online.

2016–present[]

TNT 2016

In January 2016, TNT began slowly phasing in a new logo on social media and in promos. The logo is the same as the last time, except the circle is filled, the letters are zoomed in and fused together. The current logo was officially introduced in January 30 of that year, during the 22nd Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards.
