Fox Television Studios, Inc. was a television production subsidiary of Fox Entertainment Group, the flagship entertainment division of 21st Century Fox, the unofficial production arm of Fox and the secondary production arm of 20th Century Fox Television, which is itself the television arm of 20th Century Fox Film Corporation. Fox Television Studios (FTVS) was formed on August 1, 1997 alongside 20th Century Fox Television and 20th Television ^[5] under executive David Grant. ^[6] The studio was created to house smaller production units, starting with the Greenblatt-Janollari Studio (G-JS). Greenblatt-Janollari started producing shows in the 1998–1999 season with 3 comedy series for ABC and CBS. While funded by Fox, G-JS was presented as an "independent mini-studio". ^[5] The studio also partnered with David Gerber and his Gerber Company venture to produce various telemovies and television series. ^[7] With Fox Entertainment Group holding a 20% stake in New Regency Production's parent corporation, Fox Studios formed a joint venture, Regency Television, by 2000, managed by Gail Berman. ^{[5] [6]} Another production unit formed was Fox Television Studios Productions (FTSP) under Lisa Berger. Early output by the individual units, or "pods", were FTSP's Son of the Beach for FX, The Hughleys by G-JS and Regency had Malcolm in the Middle . ^[6]

The pod model evolved into five divisions: alternative, scripted, international, Fox World and Regency Television:

• The alternative division was responsible for Talkshow with Spike Feresten and The Wanda Sykes Show , along with E!'s The Girls Next Door franchise. In mid-2002, Fox Alternative Productions was formed by Fox TV Studios and headed by David Martin with its first show to be "The Coach". ^[8]
• The scripted division produced The Shield , along with a number of television films and miniseries. ^[6]
• Fox World division, formed in 2000, produced international versions of its reality television programs such as Joe Millionaire and Temptation Island . The company was shut down by FTVS in 2014.

Eventually the only division operating was the scripted unit. Next FTVS attempted international co-productions of direct-to-series broadcast series. The company had a hit with Burn Notice on USA Network. In August 2010, Dave Madden was appointed to head the unit, where he evenly increased its production slates until he was appointed as president of entertainment for Fox Broadcasting in August 2014. ^[6]

The company produces, the FX series Sons of Anarchy , Terriers and Tyrant , the A&E action series Breakout Kings , The CW reality series Beauty and the Geek , the Showtime series Homeland , the Comedy Central series Brickleberry , the WGN America series Salem and the Lifetime series Witches of East End . On December 4, 2014, Fox Television Studios merged with Fox 21 to form Fox 21 Television Studios.

Fox 21 was formed in 2004 by 20th Century Fox Television executives Dana Walden and Gary Newman to develop and back smaller-budgeted but unique and daring shows. Fox 21's first executive was Jane Leisner. The unit's early hits were the FX series Sons of Anarchy and The CW reality series Beauty and the Geek . ^[6]

After originally being passed over for programming the new network, MyNetworkTV, Fox 21 was in consideration along with Twentieth Television and independent producers as of December 2006 in a potential reprogramming from telenovela to low-cost reality and game shows. ^[18]

Bert Salke, who moved from his Brancato/Salke production company based at ABC Studios, took charge of the unit in 2010 and led an increase in show productions starting with the Showtime series Homeland . ^[6] In early 2015, Mythology Entertainment signed a first look deal with the company and its sister studio 20th Century Fox Television while announcing the head of its TV division. ^[19]

History

Fox 21 Television Studios logo

It was announced in December 2014 that Fox 21 and Fox Television Studios would merge into Fox 21 Television Studios. This situation came as a result of FTVS's president David Madden being promoted to Fox Broadcasting Company and the fact that both units were focusing on the same market, cable television. The combined operation is headed by Fox 21 president Bert Salke. ^[6]

In January 2020, Fox 21 reached a first-look deal with Marta Kauffman's studio Okay Goodnight, beginning with an adaptation of the 2019 novel The Dreamers . ^[21] In early-February 2020, it reached a first-look deal with the Gotham Group. ^[22]

On August 10, 2020, as part of a reorganization of Walt Disney Television following the acquisition of 21st Century Fox by Disney, the studio was renamed Touchstone Television — reviving a brand dormant since the previous Touchstone Television was renamed ABC Studios in 2007. ABC Studios had also merged with the previous iteration of ABC Signature Studios to form the current iteration of ABC Signature. The renamed Touchstone Television studio retains a typewriter-styled logo similar to the previous Fox 21 and Fox 21 Television Studios brandings. ^{[23] [24]} The first and only production under the name was the Hulu film Books of Blood .

Less than four months following this change, on December 1, 2020, Walt Disney Television head Dana Walden announced a further reorganization which will see the newly renamed division wound up, with Salke transitioning to an overall producing deal with Disney Television Studios, and remaining operations absorbed into 20th Television. ^[3]
