TLC is an American cable television channel owned by Warner Bros. Discovery. First started in 1980 as The Learning Channel, it focused on educational and teaching programming. By the late 1990s, after being bought by the owners of Discovery Channel earlier in the decade, the network began to move towards reality television programming—predominantly focusing on programming involving lifestyles and personal stories—to the point that the previous name of "The Learning Channel" was stopped.
