MTV Entertainment Studios (formerly MTV Production Development from 2003 until 2018 and MTV Studios from 2018 until 2021) is an American film and television production and distribution company and is the film and television production arm of the MTV Entertainment Group, itself a subsidiary of the Paramount Media Networks division of Paramount Global. It primarily produces content aimed at adolescent and adult audiences, including original productions for the namesake cable channel and its siblings, or theatrical films released through Paramount Pictures.
MTV Entertainment Studios was formed in 2021{{Citation needed|date=August 2024}} as a consolidation of the original MTV Productions founded in 1991, the former MTV Films group established in 1996, the MTV Production Development/MTV Studios group of 2003, and the relaunched MTV Studios of 2018.
History and Background
= MTV Productions =
MTV Productions was founded in 1991. It went into expansion two years later, with Doug Herzog serving as president, to produce content for theatrical releases, broadcast television and cable, syndication, and the international marketplace.{{Cite news|date=May 10, 1993|title=MTV launches production unit|work=Broadcasting|url=https://worldradiohistory.com/hd2/IDX-Business/Magazines/Archive-BC-IDX/93-OCR/BC-1993-05-10-OCR-Page-0025.pdf|access-date=October 7, 2021}} MTV then signed a two-picture deal with Geffen Pictures.{{Cite web|last=Marx|first=Andy|date=July 7, 1993|title=Geffen and MTV pair on 'Apartment'|url=https://variety.com/1993/film/news/geffen-and-mtv-pair-on-apartment-108474/|access-date=October 7, 2021|website=Variety|language=en-US}} MTV Productions also tried for an entertainment strip called Real Time, to be distributed by Viacom Enterprises, and scheduled on air for the 1994–95 season, but never materialized.{{Cite news|date=August 16, 1993|title=Viacom's 'Real Time' tackles access|work=Broadcasting|url=https://worldradiohistory.com/hd2/IDX-Business/Magazines/Archive-BC-IDX/93-OCR/BC-1993-08-16-Page-0025.pdf|access-date=October 7, 2021}}
Joe's Apartment, based on a short aired on MTV, would be the only film to come out of the Geffen Film deal due to the 1994 acquisition of Paramount Pictures by MTV's parent company Viacom. It was later released on July 26, 1996, and grossed $4.6 million on a $13 million budget, making it a box office bomb.{{Cite web|last=Leydon|first=Joe|date=July 29, 1996|title=Joe's Apartment|url=https://variety.com/1996/film/reviews/joe-s-apartment-1200446100/|access-date=October 8, 2021|website=Variety|language=en-US}} Since its acquisition by Viacom, Paramount Pictures began to distribute material from MTV and Nickelodeon.{{Cite web|agency=Reuters|date=March 14, 1994|title=Viacom takes over Paramount|url=https://variety.com/1994/biz/news/viacom-takes-over-paramount-119173/|access-date=October 7, 2021|website=Variety|language=en-US}} After The Arsenio Hall Show was cancelled, Paramount began distributing and producing MTV's The Jon Stewart Show for the syndication market.{{Cite news|date=April 25, 1994|title=Paramount folds Arsenio Hall Show|work=Broadcasting|url=https://worldradiohistory.com/hd2/IDX-Business/Magazines/Archive-BC-IDX/94-OCR/BC-1994-04-25-Page-0028.pdf|access-date=October 7, 2021}}
