"THE MADISON" MARKS TAYLOR SHERIDAN'S BIGGEST DEBUT SEASON LAUNCH WITH 8 MILLION VIEWS GLOBALLY FOR PARAMOUNT+

SHERIDAN'S MOST WATCHED SERIES DEBUT AMONG WOMEN 35+

· It is the #1 original season by views among streaming originals for its first week of release (3/13-3/19) according to Luminate.

· The Madison, which has already been renewed for a second season, is Sheridan's most intimate work to date, unfolding across two distinct worlds - the beautiful landscape of Montana and the vibrant energy of Manhattan - as it examines the ties that bind families together.
