Search the term 'peabody' there is a list of live trademarks.
Search the owner name 'dreamworks'

The only reference to the ownership of trademark of MR. PEABODY is Ward Productions, Inc. CORPORATION CALIFORNIA 1638 Babcock Street, Ste. F Costa Mesa CALIFORNIA 92627

Dreamworks may have bought the domain or bluffed ...

From all indications, Dreamworks has to pay the trademark owner Ward Productions a trademark licensing fee.

One thing is certain, Dreamworks does not have the exclusive rights.

Looking at the trademark data you quoted, it seems to be new? 2012-2013? Wasn't Porn Nerd using that term for several years before 2012-2013? If he was, he could win the trademark case. A trademark needs to be active, and the term was used in commerce. So possibly maybe he was compensated to change his program to Porn Nerd.
