Paramount’s Big Move Post-Merger!

In a bold move following its merger with Skydance, Paramount has carved out a new strategy for its television content. With the formation of Paramount TV Studios alongside the existing CBS Studios, the landscape of their series development is set to change dramatically.

CBS Studios: The Backbone of Broadcast Television

CBS Studios has made its priorities clear—focusing primarily on producing hit shows for the CBS broadcast network while still creating captivating content for Paramount+ and other streaming services. This includes exciting projects like "NCIS: Tony & Ziva" and beloved shows such as "Matlock," "Ghosts," "Watson," and "Fire Country."

What’s Staying with CBS?

Fans can look forward to several favorites remaining with CBS, including the stellar upcoming series "King & Conqueror" and the much-loved "Star Trek" franchise, alongside other intriguing titles such as "Murderbot" and the fresh take on "Little House On the Prairie."

Paramount TV Studios: The Future of Streaming

On the other side, the newly minted Paramount TV Studios is preparing to dominate the streaming landscape, primarily for Paramount+—but they won't shy away from opportunities with outside platforms either. This studio will be bringing back the action-packed "Reacher" for its fourth season and the already filmed spin-off "Neagley." They will also continue the thrilling adventures of "Cross" for its second season and develop high-profile series including "Foundation," "Dexter: Resurrection," and the trendy "Emily in Paris." Moreover, fans of Taylor Sheridan's universe can expect more captivating content coming from this team.

Exciting Developments in the Pipeline

Paramount TV Studios is set to handle a range of series in development inspired by popular Paramount and Miramax film titles. However, a select few, including the much-anticipated adaptations of "Clueless," "Galaxy Quest," and "Flashdance," will remain with CBS Studios. Interestingly, fans can also look forward to some unconventional programming from Paramount TV Studios, notably with the upcoming broadcast show "Y: Marshals."

With these strategic splits and a clear focus on tapping into the streaming revolution, Paramount is poised to reshape its television offerings and keep viewers on the edge of their seats!
