Endemol Shine Group B.V. (stylized as EndemolShineGroup) was a Dutch production and distribution company of scripted and non-scripted content, responsible for programmes such as Big Brother, Deal or No Deal, The Money Drop, Fear Factor, MasterChef, Your Face Sounds Familiar,[3] Peaky Blinders,[4] Black Mirror,[5] Humans,[6] Grantchester and Tin Star.

It also included Shine TV which was founded in 2001 by Elisabeth Murdoch; and Metronome Film & Television, a Scandinavian-based production group.

From 20 March 2019 to 3 July 2020, it was jointly owned by The Walt Disney Company and Apollo Global Management, with each holding a 50% share.

Under the terms of the agreement, 21st Century Fox and Apollo will jointly manage the newly created group, with each owning 50 per cent.

[19][20] On 29 October 2014, Endemol announced that Cris Abrego and Charlie Corwin will serve as the new joint venture's North America division co-chairmen and Co-CEOs.

Endemol was founded in 1994 by a merger of television production companies owned by Joop van den Ende and John de Mol, the name deriving from the combination of their surnames.

In recent years the company has also been expanding its English language drama output with shows such as titles such as The Fall, Peaky Blinders, Ripper Street and Black Mirror in the UK and Hell on Wheels in the US.

In November 2013 the company launched Endemol Beyond, an international division specialising in original content for digital video platforms such as YouTube.

[45] However, on 6 November 2018 it was reported that both Fox and Apollo have decided to suspend the selling process as a deal could not be reached by prospective buyers.

[50] A few days later in November of that same year, Endemol Shine Group under their German division announced that they're selling its joint-venture drama producer Wiedemann & Berg Television to Leonine Holding which the latter already brought Wiedermann & Berg Film back in April that year will reunite W&B Television with W&B Film.

They also announced that they're setting up a new scripted label based in Berlin and will be run by W&B Television's managing director Nanni Erben.
