The acquisition is “another step in our strategy to consolidate our worldwide position as a game show owner producer and distributor,” All American Chairman and Chief Executive Anthony Scotti said. All American has managed the operations of Mark Goodson since its joint venture with Interpublic acquired the company for $50 million.
