Background
In 1999, after Universal sold its 50% shares of Brillstein-Grey Entertainment to Grey renaming the television unit to Brad Grey Television, Universal launched Universal Studios Network Programming to continue to produce Brillstein-Grey productions such as The Steve Harvey Show, Just Shoot Me! (both of them were respective megahits of NBC and The WB) and Work with Me. After struggling, in 2002, it merged with the network television unit of Studios USA Television to form a newly reorganized Universal Network Television.
Note: Releases from 1999-2002 (and some from 2003) feature a short version of the Universal Studios logo without any modifications.
