Court TV was originally launched in 1991 in the United States as a cable channel focused on true crime docuseries and live coverage of real trials across the country. The channel gained notoriety thanks to the OJ Simpson trial, but afterwards, the channel saw more success airing scripted programming such as ''Series/HomicideLifeOnTheStreet'' and ''Series/ForensicFiles'', until eventually relaunching under the name Creator/TruTV.

The channel gained notoriety thanks to the OJ Simpson trial, but afterwards, the channel saw more success airing scripted programming such as ''Series/HomicideLifeOnTheStreet'' and ''Series/ForensicFiles'', until eventually relaunching under the name Creator/TruTV.

In 2019, Katz Broadcasting decided to relaunch Court TV, once again focusing on live coverage of trials across the country. Instead of relying on being included in cable packages, it was instead decided to offer the channel for free via streaming as well as over-the-air broadcasts. With widespread coverage of several high profile court cases, the channel saw success early, allowing the channel to carve out the niche the original channel failed to accomplish.
