Paramount Television Service
The Paramount Television Service, Inc. (or PTVS for short and also known as Paramount Programming Service) was the name of a proposed but ultimately unrealized "fourth television network" from the U.S. film studio Paramount Pictures (then a unit of Gulf+Western, now owned by Paramount Global). It was a forerunner of the later UPN (the United Paramount Network), which launched 17 years later.
