The company was formed in 1984 to produce the science and technology magazine program Beyond 2000, a commercial reworking of the program Towards 2000 which aired on the Australian public broadcaster ABC. Beyond 2000 was later rebooted in 2005 as Beyond Tomorrow.
Other notable programming produced and/or distributed by Beyond include MythBusters, Deadly Women, Beat Bugs and Highway Thru Hell (most of which is now owned by Banijay).
