Samuel Goldwyn Television
Samuel Goldwyn Television was the American television production/distribution division of The Samuel Goldwyn Company. Formed in 1979 by Samuel Goldwyn Jr., the company's best-known series was the competition series American Gladiators, which was produced and distributed by the company from 1989 to 1996. In 1987, Samuel Goldwyn Television bought Victor Alexander's film Kill Zone, which was turned into the 18-picture package The Explosives. The library of Samuel Goldwyn Television also included some episodes of the series Flipper, Gentle Ben, The Mothers-in-Law and The New Adventures of Flipper. On 22 December 1996, hours after PolyGram had made an acquisition offer that was accepted, Metromedia made a counter-offer for Goldwyn's film and television library, and won the bid. Samuel Goldwyn Television was merged into Orion Pictures. In 1997, it was sold to MGM Television and folded later in the year.
