Spelling-Goldberg Productions/Summary

Background: Spelling-Goldberg Productions was another television production company of Aaron Spelling formed in 1972 in association with Leonard J. Goldberg (who also founded "Mandy Films"). In 1977, Spelling and Goldberg went their separate ways, and the assets were sold to Columbia Pictures. It was ended in 1989 after Heartbeat got canceled. Today, most of the Spelling/Goldberg library is handled and distributed by Sony Pictures Television, who also was the co-producer of a fraction of the library (as Columbia Pictures Television).
