Before Lorimar purchased video distributor Karl Home Video in 1984 and relaunched the company as Karl-Lorimar Home Video (later known as Lorimar Home Video), the company's previous features were issued first by USA Home Video, CBS Video (through MGM/CBS) and later CBS/Fox, who retained the home video rights to the pre-1984 library until Lorimar-Telepictures was acquired by Warner Bros. in 1989. As Karl Home Video, the company was started in 1982 by Stuart Karl (1953-1991). Karl later resigned from the company due to disputes between Karl and his superiors and the Karl name was ultimately dropped.
