Background

Access Syndication was a U.S. syndication company active during the late 1980s.

Access' precursor, Colbert Television Sales, was an independent television distribution company founded by television pioneer Dick Colbert and also co-ran by his son Ritch Colbert; they were known for distributing the game shows of Barry & Enright Productions. Colbert had a co-distribution team-up with King World, whom they allowed to handle ad-sales of the B&E series until 1982, when King World formed its own ad-sales division (Camelot Entertainment Sales).

On September 29, 1986, Colbert Television Sales merged with Access Syndication. Access closed in September 1988, due to a "crowded marketplace" as well as a number of flops.
