CBS Productions
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
CBS Productions was the production arm of the CBS television network, formed in 1952 to produce shows in-house, instead of relying solely on outside productions. Its first production was CBS Television Workshop, a drama anthology series. It featured an early appearance of Audrey Hepburn.
Later productions of note included Perry Mason, The Twilight Zone, Gunsmoke, The Wild Wild West, Hawaii Five-O, Touched by an Angel, The King of Queens and the CSI franchise.
In 2006, it was merged with Paramount Television to form CBS Paramount Television, whose main production division, CBS Paramount Network Television, continues to produce the former CBS Productions shows that are still running.
