Today’s multiple nominations demonstrate that we’re on the right path and that we’re establishing a strong brand name and presence.”

The other surprise hit for the new Paramount Network is the reality program “Lip Sync Battle” which scored its third consecutive Emmy nomination because it is fun, joyful, and entertaining and while it pulls in a wide range of stars and artists to compete against each other, no one leaves with hard feelings.

But the big news for Paramount is that at least two of their new series show how powerfully they are moving in the right direction. Two of its new original series prove that they have the recipe for exactly what the majority of TV viewers want, dramatic series with some twists and surprises along the way. The new Paramount Network seems to have hit two home runs at the same time.

First, its original series “Yellowstone” starring the incredible Kevin Costner and written by Taylor Sheridan is currently the second most-watched ad-supported series year-to-date in all of cable.

“American Woman,” starring Alicia Silverstone, is another strong runner in the original series category for Paramount. Co-starring Mena Suvari and Jennifer Bartels the show relatively accurately depicts the lives of three female friends living in LA in the early 1970s trying to navigate their way through life at the time.
