Yahoo announced on Monday the addition of six new original Web shows to its lineup happening this year. Featuring well-known actors John Stamos, Zachery Levi, and Cheryl Hines, these series look to help the search company capture more views to its heavily trafficked network of sites. Furthermore, Yahoo has gone out and made some changes to its partnerships — specifically adding in a new one with the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE). Henrique de Castro, Yahoo’s Chief Operating Officer, says that “Yahoo’s unique mix of content and technology leads not only to powerful and personalized experiences for our users, but also to greater distribution for our partners and higher return for our advertisers.” Additionally, he says that with the addition to its entertainment services, it “signals where Yahoo is headed: beautiful product experiences, exciting new content, big partnerships with the largest media brands, and extraordinary new ad experiences.”
