Background
Brillstein-Grey Entertainment (first known as Bernie Brillstein Productions) was a talent management film and television production company formed in 1986, founded by Bernie Brillstein and Brad Grey. It was based on the roots of The Brillstein Company. In 1994, Brillstein-Grey struck a deal with Capital Cities/ABC to begin Brillstein-Grey Communications. In 1996, Brillstein sold his interest to Universal Pictures. In 1999, Universal sold its shares to Grey renaming the television unit to Brad Grey Television. Universal soon launched Universal Studios Network Programming to continue to produce Brillstein-Grey productions such as The Steve Harvey Show, Just Shoot Me!, and Work with Me.
