| 3 | Sony Pictures Television is a major Hollywood television producer owned by Creator/{{Sony}} through its Creator/SonyPictures division. The company grew out of Creator/ScreenGems, founded in 1948 as Creator/ColumbiaPictures' first entry into the burgeoning television market. By 1974, Columbia has grown comfortable enough with the medium to produce shows under their own name, and the division was thus renamed '''Columbia Pictures Television'''. (CPT's output is profiled under the Columbia Pictures page). |

| 5 | In 1994, CPT was merged with Creator/{{TriStar|Pictures}} Television and the combined operation became '''Columbia [=TriStar=] Television''' (though both CPT and TT continued producing series independently for some time after). In 2002, 12 years after the Sony purchase of Columbia, the division was given its current name. Due to Sony's historic inability to buy television stations (until 2015, the FCC forbade more than 25% investment in stations by a foreign-owned company), SPT is one of the few non-network affiliated production companies still producing shows for network television, often by co-ownership arrangements with network-based producers. |

| 7 | In 2017, Sony Pictures Television purchased a majority interest in North American anime licensor Creator/{{Funimation}}. In 2022, they acquired British TV company Silvergate Pictures (known for ''WesternAnimation/{{Hilda}}'' and ''WesternAnimation/TheOctonauts''), changing its trademark to Sony Pictures Television – Kids. |
