Liz Tigelaar Signs Three-Year Joint Overall Deal With Paramount TV Studios and CBS Studios

The rare joint pact positions the showrunner to co-develop series for multiple platforms with both studios starting in February.

Overview

  • Under the agreement, Tigelaar will launch projects through her Best Day Ever banner beginning next month, joined by vice president of development Abby Chambers.
  • Paramount TV Studios and CBS Studios will collaborate on development and co-produce every series that emerges from the deal for streaming and broadcast outlets.
  • It is the first shared overall pact between the two units, arriving after the Paramount–Skydance merger and the revival of PTVS as a separate production label.
  • Tigelaar departs a long tenure at Disney and reconnects with CBS Studios executives who backed her earlier work, including her first overall pact and Life Unexpected.
  • Industry reporting notes the joint structure has prompted questions about broader cooperation or consolidation, though no additional steps have been announced.
