Background
The company itself originated in 1981 as Karl Video Corporation. After releasing documentaries, the company hit big in 1982 with Jane Fonda's Workout series, while expanding on its roots to include Warren Miller ski documentaries, exercise videos with Richard Simmons and independent feature films. It was later renamed to Karl Home Video in 1984, and the company was later sold to Lorimar Productions later that year, while renaming the home video company Karl-Lorimar Home Video.
