In 1973, up and coming film producer David V. Scott, who made short films for CalArts announced that they will start a film production company David Scott Productions, and a televisión arm created, David Scott TV Productions.

Scott signed a deal with NBC to broadcast its shows to air during the 1976-77 TV season. It’s first show Police Boys was a success, airing it for five years. It also signed a deal with Multimedia to syndicate the series. Following the expiration of its contract with NBC, Scott became an independent film and TV producer, but in 1983, Scott expanded its focus by creating a holding company David Scott Entertainment.

On February 13, 1988, shortly after Multimedia expanding its focus on entertainment, they acquired entertainment company David Scott Entertainment, which concentrates on film and television. There, Multimedia created Multimedia Network Television as a network division of Multimedia Entertainment. Multimedia will inherit its shows previously produced by David Scott. The first shows with the name appeared during the 1988-89 TV season.

On September 17, 1991, Multimedia acquired its assets of Orbis Communications, and it was announced that Multimedia Television Productions was launched as a division for telemovies, and it was later folded into its theatrical unit.

On January 31, 1996, MCA acquired Multimedia, and as a result the network television division was folded into Universal Television. As a result, Universal will inherit the series that was previously produced by Multimedia.
