Judy Garland Animation

the Garland Cartoon Studios (later known as Judy Garland Animation in 1984) was an animation division of The Judy Garland Company and is based at TerryToon's former building in new York City.

History
Judy Garland Productions started it's animation division in 1965. A Charlie Brown Christmas was the first special produced by Garland's cartoon studio. the special was a success, leading to more Peanuts Specials.

after Judy Garland died in 1969, her company released A Boy Named Charlie Brown in Cinemas. the film was a box office success. also, Stant Toons:the Motion Picture was released in the UK/Ireland by Avco Embassy Pictures was a success and is dedicated to the memory of Judy Garland.

in 1972, Snoopy, Come Home is a box-office failure and is beaten out at the box office by Fritz the Cat. four months after the release, Garland shut down it's feature animation, returning to television specials.

after the success of Disney's The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh in 1977, Garland relaunched it's feature animation division to release Race for Your Life, Charlie Brown with Paramount Pictures.

after Columbia Pictures purchased Garland in 1980, the company released Bon Voyage, Charlie Brown (and Don't Come Back!!) with Paramount Pictures.

while continuing all Peanuts media, the company released the pilot of My Little Pony to television in 1984. the special was a success because Peanuts and MLP are both approved by Garland's animation studio. another special My Little Pony: Escape from Catrina (1985) officially has failed for broadcasting, as what United Artists Cartoon Studios did to The Care Bears Battle the Freeze Machine in 1984. the failure of Escape from Catrina caused Garland to sell the Peanuts and MLP franchises to Dino De Laurentiis afterwards.

in 1986, Garland bought the Stant Studios from Embassy, but expanding Garland's animation studio. the blame of My Little Pony: Escape from Catrina has caused Garland to replace it's own animation studio with the Stant Toons franchise.

in 1991, Garland's animation studio was shut. in 1994 after Sony bought Garland, Judy Garland Animation Studios was renamed as Columbia TriStar Television Animation, thus folded into Columbia TriStar Television.
