On December 5, 1994, the '''[[20th Television]]''' unit was restructured, and 20th Television became refocused on syndication and non-traditional programming, and network television production was shifted back to [[20th Century Studios|20th Century Fox]], where it became '''20th Century Fox Television''' again and hired Peter Fairman to serve as president of the studio. Between 1997 and 1998, the company's library expanded by acquiring [[New World Pictures|New World Communications]] and [[MTM Enterprises]]. In 2012, it was reorganized as a separate unit of News Corporation, and two years later, the operations of Fox Broadcasting and 20th Century Fox Television merged into the Fox Television Group. On August 10, 2020, TCFTV was renamed "20th Television" (the name of the company's former [[20th Television|syndication unit]], which was folded into [[Disney Media Distribution]]), as part of a corporate restructuring, similar to the movie distribution siblings being renamed 20th Century Studios and [[Searchlight Pictures]] on January 17, 2020. Today, the former TCFTV library is owned by the Walt Disney Company. TCFTV also produced cable television shows under the [[Fox 21]] name. | On December 5, 1994, the '''[[20th Television]]''' unit was restructured, and 20th Television became refocused on syndication and non-traditional programming, and network television production was shifted back to [[20th Century Studios|20th Century Fox]], where it became '''20th Century Fox Television''' again and hired Peter Fairman to serve as president of the studio.
