When was Turner Classic Movies created?
In 1986, media mogul Ted Turner, purchased the majority of the MGM film and television library. Because of his debt load, he could not keep the MGM name and resold that and a number of other assets but he kept all of the MGM library of pre 1986 films and Warner Brothers pre 1950 library, all of the RKO library and some of the United Artists library. Turner started broadcasting the library on Turner Network Television (TNT) and began 'colorizing' some of the old black and white classics. That wasn't as popular as the company had hoped; upon hearing that Turner was planning to colorize 'Citizen Kane', Orson Wells is quoted as saying, "Tell Turner to keep his goddamned Crayolas away from my film!". On April 14, 1994, Turner Classic Movies debuted as a medium to show the MGM, UA, RKO and WB movies owned by Turner. In addition to showing these movies uninterrupted by commercials, in the intervening years TCM has added to their original library, the public can purchase copies of many of these classics from TCM, but they also work to preserve the original copies of the deteriorating old films in the library.
