History
The television unit was founded at the same time as the parent studio Mandalay Entertainment. It originally had an exclusive deal with Sony Pictures Entertainment, who is producing shows and TV movies under the logos of Columbia Pictures Television and TriStar Television.[1][2]
In 1997, it was sold to Lions Gate Entertainment.[3] Two years later, it was split off from Lionsgate, and it became an independent organization again.[4] In 1999, the deal with Columbia TriStar Television is extended.[5]
In 2000, Elizabeth Stephen, who moved off from theatrical motion pictures joined the company, and it was head of the television movie division.[6]
