Keith Samples (born 1955 or 1956[1]) is an American filmmaker and former syndication executive.[2][3][4]
He graduated in 1977 at the Texas Tech University and pursued a sports career.[2]
He was founder of the film and television production company Rysher Entertainment. He was originally senior vice president of Lorimar-Telepictures, before landing a job at Warner Bros. Television and Walt Disney Television to help them develop projects for syndication.[1]
During his time at Rysher Entertainment, he grew the company developing their own movie projects.[5] On May 27, 1997, he resigned from Rysher Entertainment and pursue his own projects.[6] He went on to be a movie maker/television director/producer after leaving Rysher, starting his own production company to develop motion pictures and television shows.[7]
For a short period of time, in 2008, he worked at Media Rights Capital's television division.[8] He infamously developed The CW's own Sunday night programming block under a time-lease agreement, but it flopped after a few viewings and poor ratings.[9][10] He was fired after only a few months working at MRC.[11]
