It was formerly the main distribution arm of Paramount Media Networks (now handled by Paramount Global Distribution Group), the CBS and The CW television networks, which are currently handled by former parent company CBS Studios. The division also consists of CBS's home entertainment arm, CBS Home Entertainment.
