"TLC....does that still stand for The Learning Channel?"

"Yes, but you couldn't learn anything from it now if you tried."

—Platypus Comix's article on MTV's Top 20 Videos of 1984

TLC (former initialism for The Learning Channel) is an American cable TV specialty channel which initially focused on educational content, launched in 1980. The channel mostly featured documentary content pertaining to nature, science, history, current events, medicine, technology, cooking, home improvement and other information-based topics. In the 2000s, it began airing Reality Shows such as Trading Spaces, Junkyard Wars, A Wedding Story and A Baby Story. Due to the success of these shows, the channel revamped itself in 2006 to show mostly home improvement shows, and in 2008 started showing shows about people's personal lives. It's currently known for having countless shows about little people, huge families, and people who have controversial lifestyles.
