Foxstar Productions
Foxstar Productions was a television production subsidiary of News Corporation. It was founded in 1993 to make TV movies and mini-series under Steve Bell (the former network production president of 20th Century Fox Television) and producer Kevin Burns. That same year, they entered the television documentary business through its production subsidiary, Van Ness Films. Many of their programs have and can be seen on networks such as A&E, CBS, National Geographic Channel, E!, Animal Planet, AMC, Bravo, We TV, Travel Channel, Lifetime, The History Channel and Syfy. In 1999, Foxstar became part of the newly formed Fox  Television Studios and continued producing documentaries, non-fiction programming and specials. By 2005, Kevin Burns already had several non-fiction programs under his Prometheus Entertainment shingle. In 2005, Foxstar Productions disbanded, and folded into Fox Television Studios (then Fox 21 Television Studios, later Touchstone Television until it folded into 20th Television in 2020).
