The company was formed by Bob Campbell and Des Monaghan with Capital Investment Group in 1996.[2][3] Screentime's first production was New Zealand talk show 5.30 with Jude on TV One which ran for three seasons.[4][5]
In 1999, Screentime bought the format rights to talent competition Popstars from its New Zealand creator, and went on to sell and co-produce adaptations of the format internationally.[6] In 2002, it was estimated that Screentime earned 20 percent of revenue generated from Popstars: The Rivals.[7]
In 2012, Banijay Group purchased a controlling stake in Screentime, giving Screentime the rights to adapt Banijay formats in Australia.[2] Des Monaghan stood down from his executive position at Screentime in 2014.[8]
In 2015, Screentime sold its 49% stake in Irish production company Shinawil.[9]
In 2019, Screentime partnered with the Screen Makers Conference in Adelaide.[10][11]
