Paramount Network Says Farewell to Spike TV

The brief, more or less: blow shit up in the desert.

We had a giant Spike TV sign and a producer who said, “We’re doing everything.” So we did. Flaming arrows. Dynamite. An actual cannon from the 1800s. Yes, you read that right. The grand finale set the whole thing ablaze before a Paramount Network banner dropped into frame.

Every bit of it was done in camera. No VFX, just fire, smoke, and a crew grinning like kids.
