Paramount Network

The Paramount Network, formerly Spike (2006-2018), Spike TV (2003-2006) and The National/Nashville Network (TNN, 1983-2003) and with the young adult males as its primary target audience, is a US (commercial) broadcaster of (acquired in October 2001), (acquired in April 2004), and (acquired in December 2006). Spike TV also had rights to air the first six . The network is through the MTV Entertainment Group fully owned by Paramount Media Networks, a division of Paramount Global. It is headquartered at the Paramount Pictures studio lot in Los Angeles.
In , TNN ran a five-day TNG marathon, Next Gen on TNN: A 5-Day Mission, airing 77 episodes during all hours of the network's operation. Jonathan Frakes, Marina Sirtis, and Wil Wheaton hosted small clips played during commercial breaks.
The network was partially owned by after a controlling interest in the broadcaster was acquired in 1999 by predecessor , the then-parent company of Paramount Pictures, owner and producer of the entire prior to Viacom's 2006 split into (new) Viacom and CBS. Franchise ownership shifted on that occasion to CBS and the network lost the right to air Star Trek television productions without acquiring a separately negotiated license from CBS, which it had to for the above referenced series after the split became effective on 1 January 2006. The rights for the then-produced films however, remained at Viacom, Spike therefore not formally required to acquire a separate license.
In 2015, the broadcaster branched out into foreign markets by establishing local subsidiaries, firstly in the , and subsequently in the , which started to broadcast on 15 April and 1 October 2015When Spike Netherlands was launched, it had in its first year to share a channel with conglomerate sister broadcaster , which had already been airing in the country since 2002. After one year Spike was assigned its own channel and was from then on able to broadcast 24/7. Spike Flanders on the other hand, was to cease its existence on 6 January 2021 for otherwise undisclosed reasons. respectively. Other foreign subsidiaries have followed suit since then.
On 18 January 2018, by which time the broadcaster was now fully owned by (new) Viacom, Spike was rebranded as the Paramount Network, though the majority of the foreign subsidiaries initially kept the "Spike" brand without the "TV" qualifier however. The big exception was the UK which saw the Paramount Network UK channel launched on 4 July 2018 before it was two years later completely restructured into as an administrative umbrella division to house the plethora of local conglomerate-owned broadcasters, such as Channel 5, Comedy Central, MTV, , etc. The original Paramount Network UK started to operate alongside Spike UK (rebranded as "5Spike" the year previously) until the latter went defunct on 7 January 2020 with its programming taken over by the newly rebranded into which the activities of the original 2018 Paramount Network UK channel were absorbed as well. The conglomerate was motivated to do so in order to avoid confusion with the soon-to-be-launched Paramount+ local streaming service subsidiary. Spike (Netherlands) too, initially kept the brand it was launched under, but was rebranded to Paramount Network (Netherlands) on 24 May 2022 after all, and this rebranding it kept as the Paramount+ (Netherlands) brand remained hidden as a part of the new SkyShowtime streaming service, launched the same year in the country.
On the US home market, Paramount Network is as of 2025 still operating as a basic cable television channel.

In the home market, the TNN/Spike/Paramount Network channel became one of the last conglomerate-owned broadcast platforms to offer Star Trek on a daily basis to its television audiences in the first decade of the 21st century, before the Star Trek productions were moved behind the paywalls of firstly Netflix and other third-party streaming services, prior to being subsequently moved to conglomerate sister platform CBS All Access (later renamed to Paramount+), for whom they were earmarked to become exclusives in the 2020s eventually. This did not come to pass however, due the harsh economic realities Paramount Global found itself in on account of its severely loss giving divisions, Paramount+ in particular, which forced the conglomerate's decision to merge with Skydance Productions in order to survive. (see main article) As a result, Paramount Global is as of July 2024 selling Star Trek streaming and broadcast/syndication rights to whomever is interested in them in order to boost its earnings potential as much as possible in anticipation of the upcoming formalization of the merger.

===Spike/Paramount Network (Netherlands)===
After the 2019 re-merger of Viacom and CBS into ViacomCBS, any hindrance of broadcasting (television) Star Trek on the former Viacom-only channel(s) was lifted, and Spike (Netherlands) became the first ViacomCBS-owned channel worldwide to broadcast (instead of stream) a Kurtzman-era Star Trek television production beyond Canada alone where these were aired by the third-party / channels. Spike (Netherlands) started broadcasting on 14 February 2021, after having aired the ten prime universe Star Trek films in the time period December 2020-February 2021 as appetizers.Nickelodeon Netherlands incidentally, debuted the in Dutch dubbed version of in April 2022 on a daily basis, during the time period in which Spike Netherlands was heavily engaged with Star Trek airings which included Prodigys contemporary Kurtzman-era sibling production Discovery.The dubbed Nickelodeon version of Prodigy started to air on Paramount Network Netherlands on 5 June 2022. It was a further indication that the franchise was increasingly treating its Dutch channel as the (temporary) outlet of Kurtzman-era Star Trek in the country, especially when Prodigy was withdrawn from Nickelodeon Netherlands a week later. A Dutch launch of Paramount+ was furthermore still nowhere in sight in June 2022, meaning that there still was no other alternative to (regularly) watch Kurtzman-era Star Trek on television legally, excepting Prodigy at first, and excepting the two productions (Lower Decks and Picard) streamed by Prime Video.Incidentally, it is highly unusual in the Netherlands for a broadcaster aimed at an adult viewership, which Paramount Network is, to air a dubbed production at prime time, instead of showing the (subtitled) original language version.
Spike (Netherlands) became Paramount Network (Netherlands) on 24 May 2022. All the rebrandings performed by the conglomerate in the 2020-2022 period however, has caused the Netherlands – along with Poland, the Czech Republic, Hungary and Spain – to become as of 2025 one of only five remaining European countries where, like in the US home market, "Paramount Network" is still the brand name of what it originally started out as, a free cable broadcast channel, aside from becoming the only one left worldwide to have aired Star Trek on a regular basis in the December 2020-April 2025 time period. The Dutch network's Star Trek outlay was particularly heavy during their – weekly "Sci-Fi Zondag" ("Sci-Fi Sunday") and their – dito "/Discovery Marathon" block airing lineup events. 
:note: For the below-listed ratings the following applies – All Central European Time (CET). The are recorded on the official Dutch "Kijkonderzoek.nl" website where the results are published daily on a progressive weekly basis, including a . As dead-of-night airings, disregarded are the ensuing early a.m. repeat airing ratings, if there are even any, as they are not considered representative for a proper appraisal in order to keep inter-season comparison on equal footing. It should be noted that the Netherlands was as of 2021 home to 17,8 million people in order to assess the ratings in perspective – and has never used any of the US/UK rating systems; the figures listed concern the number of households that have actually watched the show in question in its entirety (called "kijkdichtheid" – "viewing density", from which marketeers can calculate the intended target audience market-share), out of the number of households that have tuned in for at least one minute (called "bereik" – "reach").

** – : Seasons 1–2 (double back-to-back episode airings, except for the second season finale on 23 May which was a single episode airing); Every Sunday at 20:30 pm, irregular one to two repeat airings every subsequent week in the evening hours, most often once on Tuesday night, for season one, chapter one episodes, but no repeat airings for the second chapter episodes of season one and season two episodes.Final episode spring 2021 broadcast run on 23 May 2021. Remarkably, Discoverys Sunday evening slot was taken over by rival franchise The Orville, starting its series' one episode per airing run at the later 22.00 pm. time-slot on 20 June, and following a similar repeat airing scheme while achieving comparable viewership ratings.When started its television run on Spike (Netherlands) in February 2021, it was the first time a Star Trek series could be seen on regular Dutch television since 2007 when became the last known series seen on regular Dutch television, aired in syndication by commercial broadcaster Veronica. Like anywhere else in the world, (the older) Star Trek series were offered to viewers by streaming services, Netflix in the case of the Netherlands, and where Discovery incidentally, was until November 2021 also offered. As a matter of fact, this might also be an additional reason for Discovery being aired on a franchise television broadcaster, as Netflix was precisely the streaming service being targeted by franchise streaming service Paramount+. In service of that goal, Paramount in what was conceivably a further escalation move by ViacomCBS in the increasingly vicious "streaming war", had already withdrawn the ten prime universe Star Trek films from Netflix (Netherlands) by the time its own streaming service launched on 4 March 2021, unlike the television series and the three alternate reality films, which were still being streamed by Netflix for the time being, though Discovery was days before its fourth season premiered pulled from the streamer as well. The same held true for the likewise from Netflix (Netherlands) withdrawn outings of two other Paramount properties, The Transformers and G.I. Joe film franchises, and which were also frequently aired (actually on an alternating basis with the Star Trek films during the first half year in the first case) on Spike Netherlands, starting in 2021.

And while some European countries, still without Paramount+, were afforded the opportunity to watch the series on sister streaming service Pluto TV, the Netherlands was not among them, as the service has never been available in the country, meaning that Discovery was officially only available – when discounting the home video formats – on Spike (Netherlands) for sanctioned watching, at least until the advent of, what eventually tuned out to be, SkyShowtime at an at that time indeterminate 2022 date, that was.

The vastly increased frequency of Star Trek film television broadcasts by Spike Netherlands from that point on, was a harbinger of the franchise taking firmer control of their intellectual property (IP) television airings – in the Netherlands at least.)

However, by starting with the two series' debut episodes on 25 July 2021, which were directly followed by to boot, Veronica chose to do so in the very same Sunday time-slot Spike Netherlands aired the films, essentially making the franchise having to compete with itself for primetime viewership. Furthermore, Picard was streamed in the Netherlands by franchise partner Prime Video as well, and it was doubtful that the decision to award Veronica the series' syndication was met with approval by Prime Video (see also in this regard: main article), making it appear that ViacomCBS has chosen the Netherlands as one of their proving grounds for gauging their "streaming war" escalation moves – even though (or precisely because) a launch of Paramount+ in the Netherlands/Flanders had until August 2021On 18 August 2021, ViacomCBS announced a joint venture with to launch a new subscription video-on-demand streaming service, dubbed SkyShowtime, in more than 20 European territories, including the Netherlands, encompassing 90 million homes. Announced for a late-autumn/early-winter 2022 launch, the ViacomCBS part will primarily consist of content as streamed on Paramount+, including Star Trek. When launched, this was expected to spell the end of Spike Netherlands as an outlet for Star Trek productions eventually – as it was for Netflix and Prime Video as well for that matter – , and quite possibly the end of Spike/Paramount Network Netherlands itself, as it already had in Flanders previously. However and as already stated above, the harsh economic realities of the severely loss giving Paramount+ had thwarted this intent entirely in 2024 when parent Paramount Global was forced to merge with Skydance Productions in order to survive. The continued existence of the Dutch broadcaster might still be under consideration by new owner Skydance as a cost saving measure though, since it has always remained a operator in the margins of the market, performing only quite modestly in the Netherlands, with a market share almost never exceeding the four percent. This was mostly due to a lack of proprietary ViacomCBS content – which had already plagued Paramount+'s predecessor, CBS All Access, prior to the reunification of CBS and Viacom. This was indirectly conceded by the conglomerate by their unusually heavy and repetitive 2021/25 Star Trek outlay on its Dutch channel, especially on Sunday, besides the incessant repeat airings of the other CBS/Paramount television/film productions, and the decision to seek out a joint venture with another large media conglomerate (Comcast is the owner of NBCUniversal) for the new, yet-to-be-launched, European streaming service, in an obvious attempt to beef out content, which ultimately resulted in SkyShowtime. not been planned yet for the then-foreseeable future.
