Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Animation (shortened to MGM Animation) was an American animation division of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, that specializes in animated productions for theatrical features and television, and based in Hollywood, California. It was founded in 1993 and primarily involved in producing children's entertainment based upon MGM's ownership of intellectual properties, such as The Pink Panther, The Lionhearts, The Secret of NIMH, and All Dogs Go to Heaven.
The studio's founders, Paul Sabella and Jonathan Dern, left the studio in 1999 and founded SD Entertainment. The studio has been dormant since 2002, following the 2000 release of their last production Tom Sawyer.
