TruTV is a cable television channel and is an edition of the Turner Broadcasting System-owned TruTV broadcasting to Latin America. It is owned by Turner Broadcasting System Latin America and Time Warner, along with other channels like I.Sat, Space and TNT, between others. The channel airs "caught on video" reality programs, or as truTV calls it, "actuality" television. The channel was launched on April 1, 2009 replacing the channel Retro. It's divided in two feeds, one in Spanish language and another one in Portuguese language, for Brazil. In July, 2010 a High Definition version of the channel was launched, called "truTV HD".

Currently the channel has 2 feeds, one for Brazil and another for the rest of Latin America.

The channel was launched as Retro in the region by "Claxson Interactive Group Latin America & Iberia" and aired classical series and movies. In 2007, it was bought, along with I.Sat and Space by Time Warner, but continued to air the same programming. On March 25, 2009, Turner Broadcasting System announced that "Retro" would be replaced by "truTV" on April 1, 2009 in order to get a new kind of audience. "truTV" is the first channel in the region to be 24-hours of investigation-based programming. All the programming from Retro was moved to Turner Classic Movies, also owned by Time Warner.
