Family Home Entertainment (commonly referred to as F.H.E.) was a home video distribution company established by Noel C. Bloom in early 1981 that, like its name suggests, released mostly family-oriented content. In its first year, it would also release content geared more towards older viewers, such as Tom Jones: Live in Las Vegas. A year later, F.H.E. would launch their U.S.A. Home Video sub-label for more general releases, leaving the F.H.E. name exclusively for family-oriented and kids content. Throughout the next two decades, F.H.E. would be the main distributor of many popular '80s cartoon shows such as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Transformers, G.I. Joe, as well as Rankin-Bass specials, Tom & Jerry, and other cartoons produced by famed animator Chuck Jones.
In 1984, Bloom formed International Video Entertainment, and grouped all his existing brands, including F.H.E., together under one conglamorate. After IVE merged with Lieberman to form LIVE Entertainment, F.H.E. became a main subsidiary of that company. LIVE would later rebrand itself to Artisan Entertainment in 1998, with F.H.E. also creating its Family Home Entertainment Kids sub-label to further distinguish releases that are either geared toward kids or general family-oriented content. It eventually became a division of Lionsgate Home Entertainment after they acquired and folded Artisan Entertainment in 2003. F.H.E.'s own folding would follow in 2005.
