TBS
Dead · Surrendered DEAD/REGISTRATION/Surrendered
What this record means
This record shows that the mark “TBS” was registered on the Principal Register on September 13, 2016 for the owner Turner Broadcasting System, Inc., a corporation organized in Georgia, and was cancelled on October 24, 2016 when the registrant surrendered the registration. The goods and services listed are entertainment services, specifically the production of motion picture films, ongoing television programs of various genres, and distribution of motion picture films through cable television, broadcast television and the internet. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the same entertainment and distribution context, while use in unrelated industries would be farther from the scope shown. The record does not give control over every use of the wording. No enforcement activity such as oppositions or cancellations after publication appears in the supplied history. The latest meaningful event is the cancellation on October 24, 2016. For someone considering a similar name, the record suggests a potential risk in entertainment and broadcast services, but no broader claim is established.
