'''MTE''' is an abbreviation for "'''M'''CA '''T'''elevision '''E'''ntertainment" (or in some cases, MCA Television Enterprises), the production division of and in partnership with [[Universal Television]] and a sub-division of [[MCA TV|MCA Television]] (commonly known as "MCA TV") established in 1987, which produced TV movies, cable TV movies, and television shows, more than likely financed independently by outside producers and production companies. Even in its initial existence as MTE, finding (or, for that matter, paying attention to) its logo was rather rare even while ''Dream On'' was on the air. In December 1996, MCA was reincorporated as Universal Studios, and as a result, MTE was renamed to "Universal Television Entertainment" (a.k.a. "UTE"), and was later renamed to "Studios USA Pictures" (not to be confused with "[[USA Pictures]]") in 1997. | '''MTE''' is an abbreviation for "'''M'''CA '''T'''elevision '''E'''ntertainment" (or in some cases, MCA Television Enterprises), the production division of and in partnership with [[Universal Television (1963-1998)|Universal Television]] and a sub-division of [[MCA TV|MCA Television]] (commonly known as "MCA TV") established in 1987, which produced TV movies, cable TV movies, and television shows, more than likely financed independently by outside producers and production companies.
