20th Television is an American television production and syndication company that was formed in 1991 by 20th Century Fox Film Corporation, a division of the Fox Entertainment Group, part of News Corporation.
20th Television distributes almost all programming from the television production unit and its subsidiaries and the motion picture studio's output (and their own subdivisions); since sister company 20th Century Fox Television produces most of the Fox network programming, 20th Television can also be considered the network's syndication arm.
The company syndicates and/or co-syndicates product from partners such as Regency Television and Debmar-Mercury. It owns programming from other production companies, including MTM Enterprises, Metromedia Producers Corporation, Four Star Productions and select programming from New World Communications/Genesis Entertainment and Cannell Entertainment.

Famous quotes containing the word television:
“His [O.J. Simpson’s] supporters lined the freeway to cheer him on Friday and commentators talked about his tragedy. Did those people see the photographs of the crime scene and the great blackening pools of blood seeping into the sidewalk? Did battered women watch all this on television and realize more vividly than ever before that their lives were cheap and their pain inconsequential?”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
