The network's steady climb is due in large part to the success of its original series "Braxton Family Values" and "Marriage Boot Camp Reality Stars" which are both on track to deliver their best seasons ever. Original programming also drove WE tv to rank as the most social network on Thursday and Friday nights.

"Our unscripted original series continue to drive consistent growth at WE tv and we couldn't be happier with this performance," said Marc Juris, WE tv's president. "At a time when most of our cable competitors are flat or down, our audience growth is a direct reflection of the quality stories we present each week and the connection viewers make to our shows and characters."

During the second quarter, WE tv premiered new seasons of "Braxton Family Values" and "Marriage Boot Camp Reality Stars" and debuted the new series "Cutting It: In the ATL." Signature series "Braxton Family Values" experienced the network's highest-ever season premiere for a WE tv original and "Marriage Boot Camp Reality Stars" debuted to a franchise high. Both series claimed the number one spots on SocialGuide on their respective premiere nights.
