20th Century Fox Television is the television production division of the 20th Century Fox movie studio, a subsidiary of News Corporation. Twentieth Television (also spelled "20th Television") is a separate distribution arm overseen by News Corp.'s Fox Television Stations Group, although it uses a variant of the studio logo. ^[1]

20th Century Fox Television was founded in the late 1940s as other studios were branching out into television production as well.

Since 1986, TCFT has produced the bulk of series airing on the Fox network, including The Simpsons. Twentieth Television produces the first two series to air on Fox's sister network, MyNetworkTV: Desire and Fashion House.
