MTM - Mimsie says D'OH!

If "The Simpsons" was produced by MTM, we'd see something like this...

I like how MTM is so similar to MGM. The only difference is that MGM has the lion, and MTM has Mary Tyler Moore's cute orange kitten, Mimsie. One other thing both MTM and MGM have in common other then having cats as icons is that 20th Century Fox distributes their movies and television programs onto DVD. Well, at least that is what I've seen whenever I'm browsing through the DVD sections at Wal*Mart, Best Buy, or wherever else DVDs are sold.

Yep -- it's nothing more than a parody of MGM. MTM folded into 20th Century Fox in 1998 (I think), and News Corp. (owner of Fox) now has the rights to MTM's back catalog.

MGM's films are not distributed by Fox, however -- MGM was acquired by Sony in 2004. According to Wikipedia, their pre-1986 library is owned and distributed by Turner Entertainment. MGM still exists (as can be seen by the "MGM DVD" banner on their DVDs' covers), but Columbia TriStar distributes their present-day films.

That's true. MTM Enterprises Inc. is owned by 20th Century Fox. Of all these years, I never thought I'd hear the cat say "D'oh!"

@AaronStudios3 Um, 20th Century Fox owns the MTM Enterprises library, both before and after News Corporation--20th's parent company--and Haim Saban sold what was then called Fox Family but now called ABC Family to the Walt Disney Company. News and Saban's sale did NOT include the MTM library, but did include the 'Power Rangers' franchise. Haim Saban bought the 'Power Rangers' back from Disney back in 2010. After nine years on Fox and seven on ABC, the 'Power Rangers' now airs on Nickelodeon.

@Rusty3921 Mimsie is a girl

@1985Nebraska Actually, Mimsie, the cat, was gotten at a local Human Society and was owned by a Mary Tyler Moore Show staffer (a secretary or something, i don't know) :). At least that's what Mary said in her auto-biography After All.

I LIKE THE PART WHERE HE SAID, "Do'h!"

[AaronStudios3]

Stupid Disney and News Corp! News Corp changed MTM to Fox Family and Disney bought Fox Family just to turn it into ABC Family! Well I kind of like ABC family though.

I got a suggestion: Mimsie screams "SEGA!" As well as Mimsie doing the choir singing "Sega" from the 16 bit Sonic games. How do those sound?

@JasonL77 What about this one: Mimsie mutters "Ooh..."?
