Just three weeks after Macrovision announced that it had sold the TV Guide Network channel and TV Guide Online to investor Allen Shapiro at the fire-sale price of $255 million, Macrovision said on Monday that it had terminated the deal and instead would sell the two properties to Lionsgate for the same price. However, in an interview with Daily Variety, Shapiro indicated that he plans to challenge the Lionsgate deal. "It's unclear whether the last chapter on this deal has been written yet," he told the trade publication.
