Viacom Productions: Difference between revisions

In light of serious financial troubles brought on to Viacom, the production unit was folded into Paramount Network Television (now "[[CBS Studios]]") in 2004. Paramount took control of the remaining Viacom-produced series in 2005. On December 31 of that year, Viacom was reincorporated as "CBS Corporation", ceasing to exist officially. A "new" Viacom was established on the same day, as the holding company for Paramount Pictures, the MTV Networks, BET Networks, and their non-television firms. By 2009, most Viacom-distributed TV productions were distributed under CBS Media Ventures (formerly "CBS Paramount Domestic Television" and "CBS Television Distribution") and outside the U.S. under [[Paramount Global Content Distribution]] (formerly "CBS Paramount International Television" and "CBS Studios International"), while the previous Viacom-distributed movies, and some Viacom Domestic Media Networks TV shows were distributed by Paramount with U.S. over-the-air rights licensed to [[Trifecta Entertainment and Media]]. On December 4, 2019, Viacom and CBS re-merged, forming [[ViacomCBS]]. On February 16, 2022, ViacomCBS was renamed to [[Paramount Global]], putting the Viacom name to rest after 51 years.
