Spike TV
Spike TV is the new name of the TNN cable network (originally The
Nashville Network, later The National Network or The New TNN). It
was marketed as the first television network for men.
Champ Car Racing
The name
change was supposed to coincide with its change in programming,
including shows like Stripperella and the Ren & Stimpy Adult Party
Cartoon, as well as MXC (formerly Most Extreme Elimination
Challenge); however, on June 19, 2003, Spike Lee won a New York
State Supreme Court injunction preventing the name change, which Lee
feared viewers would associate with him.
Baywatch
On July 8, 2003, the suit was settled, and TNN was allowed to call
itself Spike TV. The name change became official on August 11 of
that same year. However, Spike TV may be taken off the air in Canada
due to the pre-existing Men TV network there, which had already been
granted exclusive rights to the all-for-men programming format by
the CRTC.
Spike TV operates as part of MTV Networks, owned by Viacom.
