Ryan has had a lot on his plate this year, as 2023 started with the reveal that Paramount would be rebranding Showtime’s linear channel and the Paramount+ premium plan into Paramount+ With Showtime. That rebrand took place in June, integrating the Showtime library completely into the existing Paramount+ platform, while the standalone Showtime streaming service has since been shuttered. Under Ryan, Paramount+ has retained its status as the fastest-growing SVOD service (in terms of sub growth) in 2023, with global subscribers reaching 63 million by Q3 and FAST platform Pluto TV’s global viewing hours increasing 46% from a year prior. By the end of 2023, Ryan’s team had launched Paramount+ in Japan and rolled out Pluto TV in Finland and Australia, setting new partnership deals for pre-install distribution on devices in the U.K., Germany and France.
