=== Background === | |||
Foxstar Productions was the documentary television production arm of [[20th Century Fox Television|20th Century Fox Television, Inc.]] that was originally formed in 1993 as a TV movie and mini-series unit under Steve Bell, the former TCFTV network president. The first series was the ''Alien Nation'' TV movie series. In 2000, Foxstar was made a unit of [[Fox Television Studios]] (now "[[Fox 21 Television Studios]]"). Although 20th Century Fox has produced documentaries since 1987, a standard logo wasn't used until 1994. | |||
