History[edit]
ValueVision[edit]
ValueVision was originally founded in June of 1990 and began broadcasting in 1991.[citation needed]
In 2000, NBC purchased a share of the company.[2]
ShopNBC/HQ[edit]
ValueVision was rebranded as ShopNBC, taking on the use of the entertainment enterprise’s peacock and logo, in November 2000.[3]
Due to economic uncertainty and NBCUniversal's upcoming possible merger with Comcast, reports surfaced that NBC would sell its stake in ValueVision; NBCUniversal formally announced that it would sell its stake back to ValueVision Media in May 2010, which would have forced a change in the channel's name,[4] but the company decided to retain the stake in June 2010 for the time being.[5]
In May 2013 with ValueVision acquiring NBCUniversal's financial stake in the company, ValueVision announced that the network would be renamed ShopHQ.[1] "Mark Cuban's American Dream" in August 2014 then again in October was the first program designed by the new management under the Clinton Group plan to have more celebrity hosts.[6]
EVINE Live[edit]
On February 13, 2015, ShopHQ was rebranded as EVINE Live after the acquisition of an eCommerce product company owning a site called Evine.[7]
