USA 1 USA Network celebrates the characters on our screens, and in our audience. We focus on unique characters because at USA, we believe behind every flaw is a remarkable talent. Beyond every quirk, a great story’s waiting to be told. Always reflective, inclusive and relatable, we’re devoted to the characters that make us, USA. Through original programs, quality series and box-office favorites, USA Network creates an emotional connection with our audience on every platform – inviting them to take part, and show us their characters too. USA Network is cable television's leading provider of original series and web content for hits such as “Covert Affairs,” “Burn Notice,” “Suits,” “Necessary Roughness,” “Royal Pains,” “White Collar,” and “Psych.” USA is also home to top acquired series “NCIS,” “NCIS: Los Angeles,” “CSI,” “Law & Order: SVU,” and “Law & Order: CI” as well as sports and entertainment events including “WWE Raw” and blockbuster theatrical films.

USA has been the number one network with cable viewers for 6 years in a row, fueled by our hit shows. Powerful returning originals Psych, Burn Notice, White Collar, Royal Pains, Covert Affairs, Necessary Roughness and Suits help make USA the #1 network for original series among P18-49 and P25-54.

We’re not just about originals though as our roster of acquireds (NCIS, NCIS:LA, Law &Order: SVU and CSI) make USA a top destination for acquired series programming (#2 P18-49/P25-54). In 2013, USA will continue to build upon our pledge to deliver quality programming, starting with the launch of Graceland, USA’s newest scripted original, two new reality shows, The Moment and The Choir, and the acquired series launch of the smash-hit Modern Family. With this exciting and continually expanding lineup, advertisers have even more distinctive and innovative opportunities to partner with us.
