“We built that foundation with gender-balanced original hits like “Bar Rescue” and “Ink Master, ” Now those hits are paving the way for the next step in our development with shows like “Tut” and “Lip Sync Battle.” The new Spike has got it all: big talent, engaging shows, and hits that get people talking. ' “We have successfully transformed Spike from a hyper-fueled network for young guys into a distinctive entertainment destination that’s inclusive and female friendly,” said Kevin Kay, President, Spike.

Update March 10: The visual identity was created by bluemarlin and the on-air graphics graphics was developed by New York-based agency Juniper Jones with Spike's in-house creative team.

PEACE!įans appreciated the tweets and wanted them to continue. I never thought rebranding would be one of the 1000 ways to die. Those episodes are mostly based on my nightmares. I was baked when I pitched 1000 Ways to Die. Apparently every decent show name was taken. There's a secret Half Pint Brawlers fight club in the sub-basement every other Thursday. I wish Deadliest Warrior had more nunchucks. My favorite number is 329 because it's the number of times COPS is on every night. I'm not sure how you get out of that felony charge though. I learned from COPS that the best way to get out of a speeding ticket is to have something illegal in the car. I clogged up the 4th stall in the 7th floor men's room over 30 times last year. I hated all my logos, but this last one looks like a tattoo design from a rejected Ink Master contestant. I lost my virginity in one of the storage spaces from Auction Hunters. I aired that show solely based off the name and the potential for frontal. I was extremely disappointed when Stripperella had no nudity. I honestly thought catch a contractor was a show about STDs. The 'get more action' tagline was actually my personal mantra. When we greenlit TNA we thought we were buying something entirely different. There's a reason all our early shows were CSI, UFC, TNA, MXC, UTI. Welp, since I'm outta here anyway I might as well tell you all the things I've been holding in for the past 18 years. Some of the tweets are too f-bomb heavy to include, but here are most of them: The self-described 'Soon-to-be-ex-Viacom employee' who runs the Spike TV Twitter account decided to spend his/her/their last week tweeting out some funny and foul-mouthed last hurrahs. They're already adapting some of their own past movies for modern audiences, like the new 'Heathers' series. The network will devote about a third of its schedule to original programming, and give the rest of the time to TV shows and movies from the Viacom and Paramount vaults. Spike was known for showing LOTS of episodes of 'COPS,' and the NYT joked that there will be 'many fewer showings' in the rebranding. Paramount's new life begins Thursday with a live episode of the popular Spike TV show 'Lip Sync Battle.' Paramount will also feature new shows like 'Waco,' a miniseries starring Taylor Kitsch and Michael Shannon and 'Yellowstone,' starring Kevin Costner. According to the New York Times, Paramount Network sees itself as 'televisions's destination for premium entertainment and storytelling.'

The network Viacom started in 2003 as 'The First Network for Men' is rebranding as the Paramount Network.
