Tokyo Broadcasting System Television, Inc. (Japanese: 株式会社TBSテレビ, Hepburn: Kabushiki-gaisha TBS Terebi) is a television station in Kantō region, wholly owned by Tokyo Broadcasting System Holdings. It has a 28-affiliate news network called Japan News Network (JNN).

TBS produced the Takeshi's Castle game show, which is dubbed and rebroadcast internationally. The channel is also home to Ultraman and the Ultra Series franchise from 1966 onwards – itself a spinoff to Ultra Q, co-produced and broadcast in the same year – and its spinoffs, most if not all made by Tsuburaya Productions for the network.

On May 24 2017, Six major media firms, including TBS, officially announced they will jointly establish a new company in July 2017 to offer paid online video services. TBS Holdings will become the largest shareholder of the new company, Premium Platform Japan, with a 31.5 percent stake. An official from TBS Holdings will become the new company’s president.[1][2]
