Universal Media Studios (UMS, formerly NBC Universal Television Studio, is the TV production arm of the NBC Universal Television Group. It was previously known as Revue Studios, NBC Studios, and Universal Network Television. Both NBC Studios and Universal Network Television are predecessors of Universal Media Studios.
The name was changed in 2004 to reflect the NBC Universal brand. However, on Thursday, June 14, 2007, NBC Universal Television Studio, in immediate effect, was renamed Universal Media Studios. The parent company, NBC Universal, explained that the reason for the name change of the production arm was because "the new name fully describes the company's mission to be the premier content provider for television and digital platforms, spanning all television dayparts and creative genres."
The first series ordered under the new name was supposed to be the upcoming Without Breasts There Is No Paradise. However, the new logo debuted after November 5th's episode of Heroes. The logo took over all of the old NBC Universal logos on other shows such as House, M.D., Bionic Woman, The Office, and Friday Night Lights.
