Saban Entertainment (formerly Saban Productions) is best known for importing and dubbing Japanese series, both of the animated and live-action variety. In addition to that it teamed up with French production teams and DiC for several animated series.

Most of their library is owned and controlled by Disney, except for Power Rangers and its spinoffs (VR Troopers, Beetleborgs, The Mystic Knights of Tir Na Nog, and Masked Rider).

Note: The infamous "Saban Moon" trailer has nothing to do with Saban. That's just a Fan Nickname for the proposed series, because it was a terrible Live Action Adaptation of Sailor Moon that resembled the types of live-action series Saban imports. It was actually produced by Toon Makers, a branch of Renaissance Atlantic (the production team behind Power Rangers).

Note: Saban Brands, which was set up by Haim Saban to reacquire the Power Rangers franchise(s) in 2010, is not the same as Saban Entertainment.^[1]

Works imported or produced by Saban Entertainment include:

Cybersix
BattleTech
Beetleborgs
Bureau of Alien Detectors
The BOTS Master (provided music; produced by "Creativite et Developpement", later absorbed by SIP)
