Most programming air in their original English audio, with subtitles in Spanish (for Latin American countries except Brazil), Portuguese (for Brazil), Chinese (for Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Singapore), Malaysian (for Malaysia) and Indonesian (for Indonesia), however, there are also some dubbed programming. On November 1, 2015, the Latin American channel switched to dub programming instead of just subtitling them. This caused an uproar to most of its audience.

Warner TV's headquarters are located in Brazil, Colombia, Chile, Singapore, and Malaysia; the broadcasting, however, is based in Miami for Latin American viewers and Singapore for Asian viewers. On November 9, 2017, Turner Broadcasting System France and Canal+ both launched Warner TV in France, replacing Syfy which became a SFR exclusive.[1]

All television series airing on the channel are sourced from the library of Warner Bros., which licensed its name to the channel until 2019.

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.[2]

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

Starting on May 2, 2020, Warner TV started broadcasting the Adult Swim block in Latin America, which initially included Rick and Morty, Final Space, Robot Chicken, and Aqua Teen Hunger Force.[3][4][5]
