MTM Enterprises, Inc. (also known as "MTM Productions, Inc.") was an independent production company established in 1969 by actress '''M'''ary '''T'''yler '''M'''oore (hence the initials of the company) and her then-husband Grant Tinker. The company was formed as a result of an agreement with Moore and the CBS network to produce 22 episodes of a new sitcom, which would become The Mary Tyler Moore Show. In 1986, MTM launched "MTM Television Distribution. MTM titles had previously been distributed by [[Viacom (pre-2006)|Viacom Enterprises]] (now "[[CBS Television Distribution]]"), and then [[Victory Television]]. MTM was sold to TVS Entertainment (a subsidiary of now-defunct [[ITV (UK)|ITV]] franchise holder [[TVS Television (UK)| TVS]]) in 1987. In 1992 after TVS lost its ITV franchise to [[Meridian Television (UK)|Meridian Broadcasting]], it was then sold to International Family Entertainment, Inc., owners of The Family Channel, which in turn was sold and merged into Fox Family Worldwide (now "ABC Family Worldwide") in 1997. MTM ceased operations the following year, and its library assets were folded into [[20th Century Fox Television]], and are currently distributed by [[20th Television]]. | MTM Enterprises, Inc.
