Michael Schneider Variety Editor at Large Sony Pictures Television vet Suzanne Prete, who has driven the studio’s game show division since its launch in 2022, has been upped to president.
The exec will continue to report to Sony Pictures TV chairman Ravi Ahuja, who announced the news Thursday in a memo to staffers. “We established our dedicated game show group just two years ago, and under Suzanne’s leadership, our game show division has excelled beyond even our lofty expectations,” Ahuja said in the note, pointing particularly to Prete’s stewardship of both “Jeopardy!” and “Wheel of Fortune.” “With her keen understanding of the incredible value these series hold, Suzanne was instrumental in securing a landmark five-year renewal deal with ABC to take the shows through the 2027-2028 season.
She is also a driving force in expanding these syndicated powerhouses into multi-faceted franchises, including primetime specials such as ‘Celebrity Wheel of Fortune,’ ‘Celebrity Jeopardy!’ and ‘Jeopardy!
Masters.'” Prete had most recently served as exec VP of game shows at Sony Pictures TV, overseeing business operations and game show content creation.
