Tomorrow Entertainment: Difference between revisions

'''Tomorrow Entertainment, Inc.''' was a television production company that was founded by former [[ABC National IDs|ABC]] president Tom Moore, and was owned by General Electric, which also owned [[Rankin-Bass]] at one point. In August 1971, the company acquired [[Alan Landsburg Productions]] and later sold ALP to Reeves Teletape Corp. (later part of "[[Reeves Entertainment]]") on September 18, 1978. In 1974, GE decided to shut down and sell off its entertainment properties, and Tomorrow was sold to advertising agency Dancer Fitzgerald Sample. In 1976, EMI acquired Tomorrow Entertainment and formed [[EMI Television Programs]]. Tomorrow's management was able to buy out DFS's shares in 1983. The company planned a move into feature films starting in 1985, but this turned out to be a failure, and Tomorrow closed around 1989. GE retained the rights to the pre-1975 Tomorrow library until 1988, when it was sold to [[Broadway Video]]; it is now controlled by [[NBCUniversal]] through [[DreamWorks Animation]] and [[Classic Media]]. The post-1975 Tomorrow library (including the EMI Television Programs library) is currently owned by [[CBS Media Ventures]], as [[Viacom Enterprises]] had distribution rights to the Tomorrow Entertainment catalog in the early 1980s.
