Family Home Entertainment: Difference between revisions

'''Family Home Entertainment''' was a home video distribution company established by Noel C. Bloom in June 1981 to distribute family/kids releases. A year later, FHE launched a non-kids sub-division known as [[Artisan Entertainment|U.S.A. Home Video]], which would eventually evolve into Artisan Entertainment. Early releases were distributed by [[MGM Home Entertainment|MGM/UA Home Video]] and in the late 1980s, FHE's releases were distributed by [[Universal Studios Home Entertainment|MCA]] (mostly in Canada). In 2003, [[Lionsgate Films|Lions Gate Films]] acquired and folded Artisan Entertainment and FHE became a sub-label before being rebranded as Lions Gate Family Entertainment in 2005.

'''Availability:''' Uncommon. Can be seen on early releases of home video releases of shows such as ''Thundercats'', ''Transformers'', ''G.I. Joe'', ''Inspector Gadget'', ''Amigo and Friends'', ''The Adventures of the Little Koala'', and ''Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles'', among others. Also spotted on some [[Rankin-Bass]] video releases of the time, the Chuck Jones releases of ''Rikki-Tikki-Tavi'', ''Mowgli's Brothers'', and ''The White Seal''. You may also spot this on a few Japanese anime tapes like ''Robotech'' or some tapes of British cartoons like ''Wil Cwac Cwac'' and ''Roobarb'', and the Australian ''Dot'' cartoons should have this logo, too. The variant without the "WHOOSH!" at the end can be spotted on several ''Robotech'' releases from 1987, as well as ''The Teddy Bears' Picnic'' and ''Babar: The Movie'' from 1989. Also seen on later ''Strawberry Shortcake'', ''Gumby'' and ''Care Bears'' VHS releases. This makes surprise appearances on the Amazon Prime and Tubi prints of ''The Bear Who Slept Through Christmas''. One of the last releases to feature this logo was ''Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Movie''.
