New Line Television: Difference between revisions

'''New Line Television''' was the television production/distribution arm of [[New Line Cinema]] founded in 1991. Prior to this, New Line co-produced the ''Nightmare on Elm Street'' spinoff series ''Freddy's Nightmares'' with [[Lorimar Television]]. New Line was acquired by [[Turner Entertainment Co.|Turner Broadcasting System]] on January 28, 1994 and then Time Warner (currently Warner Bros. Discovery) on October 10, 1996. On October 2006, it was officially announced that [[MGM Television]] (owned by [[Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios|Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer]] under MGM Holdings Inc.) would be distributing New Line Television material and television broadcasts of New Line films. On February 28, 2008, after New Line Cinema shut down as an independent studio under Time Warner, it was made as a division of [[Warner Bros. Pictures]]. Therefore, New Line Television was folded into [[Warner Bros. Television]]. However, New Line Television was revived in 2016 as a specialty label of WBTV to produce television adaptations of previous New Line properties. New Line's film catalog was previously distributed by [[Viacom (1952-2006)|Viacom Enterprises]].
