The CBS/Fox Company

From Home Video

History

[edit]

The CBS/Fox Company, doing business as CBS/Fox Video, was formed in mid-1982 as a joint venture between CBS, which recently ended its video partnership with MGM, and 20th Century-Fox. Prior to the formation of this venture, Fox's video releasing company was known as 20th Century-Fox Video.

The company issued Playboy product for three years, until 1985 when this was transferred to Karl-Lorimar Home Video.

In 1983, three category imprints were formed:

  • CBS/Fox Video Music - music titles, mostly backed by CBS Records
  • CBS/Fox Video Sports - sports titles, mostly produced by NBA Entertainment
  • CBS/Fox Children's Video - children's titles

The following year, another category imprint was formed, called Key Video, for lower-profile titles. By 1985, CBS/Fox Children's Video was reorganized as Playhouse Video.

Soon, by the mid-1980s, the company secured deals with Atlantic Releasing Corporation to release its titles (before Paramount secured television and home video rights to that company's titles), Producers Sales Organization to release its titles under the PSO Video imprint, and the British Broadcasting Corporation to release its titles under the BBC Video imprint.

In December 1990, CBS/Fox agreed to begin distributing rental-exclusive titles from Media Home Entertainment; this deal became effective on January 1, 1991 and continued until December 31, 1994, a year after Media Home Entertainment itself wound down its operations.

In the beginning of April 1991, the entire company was reorganized, becoming FoxVideo. Shortly before then, CBS formed CBS Video with CBS/Fox issuing most of that label's titles. Upon the reorganization, the Playhouse and Key imprints were dissolved, and CBS/Fox remained in operation as an imprint now restricted mainly to third-party content. In 1994, the company launched the Fox Kids Video imprint.

In 1995, the company was reorganized again, becoming 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment.
