Background

Miller-Boyett-Warren Productions was the production company of Thomas L. Miller, Robert L. Boyett, and Michael Warren formed through a renaming of Miller-Boyett Productions after Warren ended his partnership with William Bickley. Unlike Miller and Boyett's previous companies (Miller-Milkis Productions (formed by Miller and Edward K. Milkis), Miller-Milkis-Boyett Productions and Miller-Boyett Productions) and Bickley/Warren Productions (the company owned by Bickley and Warren), the partnership between Miller, Boyett and Warren was not successful, only producing Meego (one of the shows broadcast on CBS as part of the "CBS Block Party") and Two of a Kind (which aired on ABC as part of its then-fading "TGIF" block during the 1998-99 broadcast season), both of which ran for only one season each. The partnership was dissolved in 1999; Miller and Boyett would not produce another show together until Fuller House premiered in 2016.
