In 2006, Tell-Tale was purchased out in a management buyout by Will Brenton and Iain Lauchlan, and was re-formed as '''Wish Films'''. Today, Tell-Tale's back catalog library is owned by [[NBCUniversal Television Distribution|NBCUniversal]] through Universal Pictures.

*During the last two years of the logo's existence (2005-2006), the logo was altered to read "Tell~tale Productions".
