This is a list of content libraries and catalogs owned by Paramount Skydance Corporation.
Library size
In 2019, CBS and Viacom re-merged to form ViacomCBS (later known as Paramount Global), and the overall combined library was estimated to have 3,600+ film titles and 140,000+ television episodes, including the pre-1973 content programming libraries of CBS' rivals NBC and ABC. In 2020, the library acquired an extra 700 films, after ViacomCBS bought a 49% stake in Miramax. By the time Paramount Global's merger with Skydance Media was announced in 2024, the library was estimated to have 4,000 to 4,500 films and 200,000 television episodes. Roughly 70% of the films were titles which Paramount had acquired the rights to.
