Description: TBS was originally established on December 17, 1976, as the national feed of Turner's Atlanta, Georgia, independent television station, WTCG. The decision to begin offering WTCG via satellite transmission to cable and satellite subscribers throughout the United States expanded the small station into the first nationally distributed "superstation." With the assignment of WTBS as the broadcast station's call letters in 1979, the national feed became known as SuperStation WTBS, and later SuperStation TBS, TBS Superstation, or simply TBS. The channel broadcast a variety of programming during this era, including films, syndicated series, and sports.

Description: The famous line "Hey, ask for the Wolfman!" was said by Doyle Rodgers, an Atlanta furniture store owner who became one of the city's most recognizable TV personalities. Rodgers owned Gallery Furniture, with stores in College Park and Gainesville, Georgia. Beginning in the late 1970s and throughout the 1980s and 1990s, his low-budget but unforgettable TV commercials aired constantly on Atlanta stations, especially during Braves games on TBS. His signature closing line was: "And hey... ask for the Wolfman!"
