Byron Allen is best known as the head of the American broadcast empire Entertainment Studios. He also owns and operates Allen Media Group (AMG). He is one of the most under-the-radar, extremely successful people in Hollywood. Thanks to a 2018 acquisition, Allen owns The Weather Channel television network (not the website). Between his two companies he owns 12 cable networks and actively produces around 70 television shows that air on affiliates across the United States.
In 2009, Allen became the first television entrepreneur to own and launch a portfolio of six 24-hour HD television networks simultaneously. The six networks include Pets.TV, Comedy.TV, Recipe.TV, Cars.TV, ES.TV, and MyDestination.TV.
