NEW YORK - April 14, 2016 - USA Network announces "We The Bold," a new brand positioning debuting today that encapsulates the network's evolved programming strategy and telegraphs a new, distinct point of view for the brand.

"From MR. ROBOT to COLONY to WWE, USA is actively taking big swings with programming that is more daring than ever before," said Chris McCumber, President, Entertainment Networks, NBCUniversal Cable Entertainment. "'We The Bold' reflects the kind of stories we want to tell - rich, captivating stories about unlikely heroes who defy the status quo, push boundaries and are willing to risk everything for what they believe in."
"Like 'Characters Welcome,' 'We The Bold' reflects our culture and spirit in a timely and aspirational way, and serves as an inclusive rallying cry for our programming, characters and audience," said Alexandra Shapiro, Executive Vice President, Marketing & Digital, Entertainment Networks, NBCUniversal Cable Entertainment. "We couldn't be more excited to bring this new positioning to life and to ultimately allow our fans to help imbue it with meaning."

ROBOT, "Katie Bowman" (Sarah Wayne Callies) of COLONY, and WWE Superstar Roman Reigns. All three spots organically feature "We the Bold" within the context of each franchisee's world. Coming soon: "Harvey Specter" (Gabriel Macht) of SUITS, Todd Chrisley from CHRISLEY KNOWS BEST and "Teresa Mendoza" (Alice Braga) from QUEEN OF THE SOUTH, among others.
