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'' spin-off series ''Freddy's Nightmares'' with [[Lorimar Television]]. New Line was acquired by [[Turner Entertainment Co.|Turner Broadcasting System]] on January 28, 1994 and then [[WarnerMedia|Time Warner]] (currently [[Warner Bros. Discovery]]) on October 10, 1996. On October 2006, it was announced that [[MGM Television]] would be distributing New Line Television material and television broadcasts of New Line films. Although Warner Bros. has produced television series since 1991, the company remains in use. On February 29, 2008, New Line Cinema was shut down as an independent studio under Time Warner and was made a division of [[Warner Bros. Pictures]]. Therefore, New Line Television was folded into [[Warner Bros. Television Studios|Warner Bros. Television]]. However, the New Line Television brand was revived in 2016 as a specialty label of WBTV to produce television adaptations of previous New Line properties. New Line's film catalog is distributed by [[Warner Bros. Pictures]] (previously [[Viacom Productions|Viacom Enterprises]] and [[Columbia Pictures Television]], among other outfits.).
