Touchstone Television has reestablished itself as one of Hollywood’s leading production companies, supplying critically acclaimed quality entertainment to the television industry. Formed in 1984, Touchstone Television has produced some of the most popular and longest-running comedies in television history, including Home Improvement, The Golden Girls, Empty Nest and Boy Meets World, as well as critical favorites such as Once and Again, Felicity and Sports Night. To streamline communications and increase efficiencies, Touchstone Television merged with ABC Entertainment in 1999 to form the ABC Entertainment Television Group.

The last two seasons have been the most successful in Touchstone’s 19-year history, with 15 series on the air this season, including commitments from ABC, NBC and CBS. The studio is responsible for such popular returning shows as Alias, My Wife and Kids, According to Jim, 8 Simple Rules, Life with Bonnie and Less Than Perfect on ABC; Scrubs on NBC; The Amazing Race on CBS, and Monk on USA.

Among Touchstone’s new programs on ABC’s primetime schedule this fall are Hope & Faith, It’s All Relative, 10-8 and Threat Matrix, all of which received either full-season or additional episode commitments. Midseason programming from the studio includes the dramas Line of Fire and Stephen King’s Kingdom Hospital.
