Packer's Plans for MGM TV

摘要

Jim Packer, the new president of MGM's Worldwide Tele-vision Distribution Group, is charged with reinvigorating the once venerable studio's TV-distribution operation. The mandate to maximize the value of its library, which consists of 4,000 films (such as the James Bond and Rocky franchises) and 10,000 hours of television series (including The Twilight Zone), came after MGM decided earlier this year to infuse its domestic theatrical distribution pipeline with more than 20 new titles annually.
