LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Don Cornelius has sold his "Soul Train" franchise to MadVision Entertainment, a multimedia company specializing in branded urban content and production.
The deal gives MadVision production rights to the weekly "Soul Train" series along with a catalog of more than 1,100 hours of archival footage from the show's 37-year run.

When a new company takes over, the outcome is never good. I hope they don't completely revamp and totally ruin Soul Trainmore than it already has been. It was hard enough watching it through the Shemar Moore years.
