''Action Pack'' was a series of television movies and television series created by Universal Television that aired in syndication from 1994 until 2001. The ''Action Pack'' included two hours of various television series produced by Renaissance Pictures and distributed by MCA TV (later known as Universal Television Enterprises and Studios USA Television Distribution). ==Series history== Following an abortive one-season attempt by Universal Television to offer a three-series Hollywood Premiere Network〔Hollywood Premiere Network was an early attempt by Universal Television to create an ''ad hoc'' syndication network. Although not a "real" network with affiliates and the like, they were ahead of their time and would have better success with the Universal Action Pack later in the 1990s. The series aired in many of the stations that would later become either UPN or WB affiliates. ''She-Wolf of London'' premiered along with two other shows, ''Shades of L.A.'' and ''They Came from Outer Space'' on October 9, 1990〕 in 1990-91, in 1994, the ''Action Pack'' initially ran a series of television movies, which led to the run of several television shows the following year.〔http://articles.latimes.com/1994-01-16/entertainment/ca-12369_1_prime-time-programming/2〕 〔(Mysteries Surrounding the Creation of the Syndicated Television Show XENA: WARRIOR PRINCESS ) Whoosh Online Edition.
