{{Main|List of programs broadcast by Paramount Network}}

Paramount Network's current programming consists primarily of reruns of [[sitcom]]s and [[Drama (film and television)|drama series]], as well as airings of feature films. As of 2022, the network's lone original drama is [[Yellowstone (American TV series)|''Yellowstone'']], which launched alongside the rebranding of Spike as Paramount Network, and grew in viewership throughout its first four seasons.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Jacobs|first=Meredith|title='Yellowstone' Continues to Be a Ratings Hit With Season 4 Finale|url=https://www.tvinsider.com/1027666/yellowstone-season-4-finale-ratings-paramount-network/|access-date=2022-02-04|website=TV Insider|date=5 January 2022 }}</ref> ''[[Bar Rescue]]'', a reality series carried over from Spike, has also continued to air new episodes on Paramount Network.<ref name="deadline-pmn-ice" />

As Spike, male-oriented programs constituted the majority of the network's schedule upon its original relaunch in 2003. By 2011, Spike had shifted its programming towards shows aimed at a broader audience, such as ''Bar Rescue''. Finally, with its 2015 rebrand, Spike attempted to add more "gender-balanced" programming.<ref name=thr-onestowatch/><ref name=adweek-2015rebrand/>

The network had formerly carried [[combat sport]]s programming throughout its various incarnations; being the first basic cable home of [[mixed martial arts]] promotion [[Ultimate Fighting Championship|UFC]], and including early seasons of the promotion's reality series ''[[The Ultimate Fighter]]''.
