6th Logo (January 1-September 1968)
Nicknames: "Rising Circle", "Iris-in Circle", "Dark Mountain II", "Changing Paramount Text", "Gulf+Western Mountain"

Logo: On a blue background, we see a black mountain and the words "A Gulf+Western Company" in white. Suddenly, a white filled-in circle border makes an iris-in effect behind the mountain. The " Paramount " name, which is written in its majestic script font and appears in black, pops in while 22 white stars appear around the border, starting in the middle and going downward. The word " Paramount " immediately moves upward to make room for " Television " below it, in the same typeface. Below the logo are two subtitles, both in white: "COPYRIGHT © MCMLXVIII BY PARAMOUNT PICTURES CORPORATION. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED" in a more standard type, and " Paramount Pictures Corporation " in the Paramount logo font.

Main Variants: One of 6 visual variants were used:


 * For 2/3 of its existence, a small pre-1968 Paramount's print logo appeared alongside the copyright information, while the rest of the 1968 mid-season had just the text.
 * Variants 3 and 4 had the standard format as the first two, with the addition of the Norway Corporation, as credited on Star Trek.
 * For variants 5 and 6, the logo appears with the copyright, but without the Gulf+Western byline. This was featured on Mission: Impossible and Mannix respectively.

Other Variant: A B&W variant exists on 16mm prints of said colors.

Technique: The "sunrise" effect, the stars, and "Paramount" changing into "Paramount Television".

Music/Sounds: Same as the 1966 Desilu Productions logo. The battling loud version of the fanfare from that logo was only used in early 1968, typically for the bylineless variant.

Music/Sounds Variant: A high tone variant exists for both themes, which is generally heard on PAL prints of shows.

Availability: Extremely rare.
 * It was seen on Mannix and early 1968 episodes of Mission: Impossible on ALN (now Youtoo America) and is intact on DVD releases of the show.
 * It can also be seen on videocassettes of Star Trek episodes aired during that time period.
 * The last 10 episodes of The Lucy Show also had this logo and it is retained on the S6 DVD release.
 * This logo is strangely replaced by the Desilu logo and the CBS Television Distribution logo on the Star Trek season 2 Blu-ray set.

7th Logo (September 1968-December 20, 1969)
Nicknames: "Split Rectangle", "Yellow Split Rectangle", "Benevolent Rectangle", "The Closet Killer", "The Bumper Sticker", "Split Box", "Gulf+Western Mountain II"

Logo: Against a yellow background is a blue rectangle which is split into two sections; the left and the larger rectangle contains the words:

PARAMOUNT TELEVISION A DIVISION OF PARAMOUNT PICTURES CORPORATION

Besides the last line, all are set in Eurostile font (the company byline appears to be set in Trade Gothic font). "PARAMOUNT" has the largest typeface, and the other two lines are progressively smaller. On the smaller right side of the rectangle is a Paramount logo with a blue border and white mountain. The picture zooms-up to the logo, which kind of looks like a blue and white version of the "Rising Circle" logo ("A Gulf+Western Company" and copyright message appears at the bottom of the white mountain) except the word " Television " is not present. Also, the copyright stamp appears when the picture zooms in.

Trivia: A similar version of this and the next logo were used as the print logo for Paramount's record division of the time, Dot Records, from 1968 to 1971.

Variants:
 * There was a variation seen on Here's Lucy in which the mountain has no bylines or copyrights.
 * Around September-November 1968, the word "CORPORATION" is missing on the rectangle on some shows.
 * Star Trek has a special variant with Norway Corporation credited.
 * On shows like Mission: Impossible and Mannix and TV movies, this logo appears with the copyright only. This will linger on through the first 2 months of M:I's 4th season and Mannix 's 3rd season, as the first 4 episodes didn't feature the copyright on the ending theme just yet.
 * On some late '90s PAX TV airings of season 1 episodes of Here's Lucy, this logo (along with the Lucille Ball Productions and Warner Bros. Domestic Pay TV, Cable & Network Features logos {the latter replacing the Telepictures "Rollercoaster"}) was played at warp-speed before the compressed credits. On other airings on the same network, the logos would cross-fade into the next one before fading to black.
 * An in-credit version with " in association with " above the print logo with the byline can be seen on 1968-69 episodes of the game show You Don't Say!.

Technique: The sudden zoom-in.

Music/Sounds:


 * September 1968-1969: A majestic 7-note horn fanfare.
 * September-December 1969: The music from the next logo.

Availability: Extremely rare, as it is usually not intact on many common prints of the TV shows it was on.
 * This was seen on Mission: Impossible on ALN (now Youtoo America), season 3 of both Mannix and Star Trek 's 1999/2004 Paramount DVD releases, several Star Trek episodes on CBS's YouTube channel and when they were aired on TV Land, as well as the 1969 TV movies The Immortal (which is intact on current DVDs), The Young Lawyers, and Seven in Darkness.
 * It is intact on season 1 of Here's Lucy on Amazon Prime Video.

8th Logo (September 1969-1975, October 10, 1988-May 14, 1990, October 1, 2012-February 19, 2013)
Nicknames: "Split Rectangle II", "Red Split Rectangle", "Malevolent Rectangle", "The Closet Killer II", "Bumper Sticker II", "Split Box II", "Gulf+Western Mountain III"

Logo: Same appearance as the 4th logo except the background is red, the larger rectangle is blue, the Paramount mountain and the stars around it mountain are blue, and the smaller rectangle is white (the mountain is cut off at the bottom in this version). The zoom on the square is still intact.

Variants:


 * The placement of the registered trademark "®" symbol is either close to or under the last star on the right side of the near-circle.
 * A version exists with the Paramount copyright. This was seen between 1969-1971.
 * On Mission: Impossible, Mannix, and some TV movies from the era, this logo appears with the copyright only.
 * A still variant with the text "IN ASSOCIATION WITH" above exists on The Brady Kids. Later episodes had "IN ASSOCIATION WITH AND DISTRIBUTED BY" above it instead.

Technique: Same as the previous logo.

Music/Sounds:


 * 1969: An 8-note horn-driven jingle written by Dominic Frontiere a.k.a. "The Closet Killer". Notes 4-7 are louder. This applied to most of the 1969 fall season.
 * 1969-1971: An alternate "Closet Killer" theme. This one is noticeably slower with the first three notes and faster for the rest.
 * 1970-1974: An 8-note sped-up, tinkly horn fanfare, composed by Lalo Schifrin. Known only as the "Color ID".
 * 1972-1975: A thick pounding drum rendition of the Schifrin fanfare.
 * 1974-1975: A more dramatic rendition, sometimes referred to as the "Pound & Drop" version. This signature will eventually be redone for the then-upcoming "Blue Mountain" logo.

Music/Sounds Variants:


 * An extreme high tone version of the "Closet Killer" was used.
 * On the first episode of The Magician, it used a sped-up version of the 1972 music variation heard in the next logo.
 * When TBS aired The Brady Bunch around the late 1980s or early 1990s, one S1 episode had the first version of the "Closet Killer" in low-tone.
 * On the War of the Worlds TV series episode "Eye for an Eye" on its DVD release, it uses the 1987 fanfare, due to a reverse plastering error.
 * In rare cases, it used the closing theme of the show/movie or was silent, such as the 1973-74 animated Star Trek series and the 1975 TV movie The Legend of Lizzie Borden.
 * An off-sync variant was spotted on an episode of The Brady Bunch. The "Closet Killer" music would begin during the black screen between the credits and the logo, before the logo appears. As a result, part of the logo was silent.

Availability: Uncommon.


 * This was seen on Mission: Impossible on ALN (now Youtoo America) and on a number of shows and TV movies, but a lot of it have been replaced with either the 6th, 8th, or a later logo (mostly CTD currently). An example of this would be the "The Complete Series" DVDs of The Brady Kids, which plaster this logo with the CBS Television Distribution logo.
 * The 1969 versions are rare and it can be seen on The Brady Bunch DVD box sets, as well as on Me-TV airings of the show. It's also intact on The Odd Couple on DVD, Me-TV and Decades. Me-TV airings of Love, American Style have this as well.
 * The 1970 version is uncommon. This version has been spotted on all S1 episodes of the 1989 War of the Worlds TV series on its DVD release, as well as The Immortal, Longstreet on DVD, season 1 of The Odd Couple on DVD and Me-TV, local reruns of Love, American Style (such as airings on Decades and Me-TV), and The Brady Bunch on DVD and Me-TV airings. This variant was "revived" on What Was Carol Brady Thinking?, part of the former NickMom block on Nick Jr.
 * The 1972 version is rare and was spotted on S1 and some S2 episodes Happy Days episodes, which includes the season 1 DVD boxset, Me-TV and older Discovery Family airings in the US (latter of which was called Hub Network at the time), as well as UK Gold airings in the UK. Other shows where this has been spotted on is The Magician on DVD, season 1 of Petrocelli on DVD and older airings on AXN Crime, and The Brady Bunch on DVD and Me-TV airings.
 * The 1974 version is extinct and was only spotted on episodes of The Odd Couple, and was plastered with the 1995 Domestic logo.
 * The silent version can be seen on a few programs like The Devil's Daughter and The Legend of Lizzie Borden, which are retained on their DVD releases. The animated Star Trek series also has this, which has been seen on Netflix, DVD and Blu-ray box sets, and recent H&I (Heroes and Icons) prints. Not all prints have this, as some plaster it with the 1995 Domestic logo.
 * The bylineless version is extremely rare and was recently spotted on a 1970 episode of The Brady Bunch on Me-TV and on the Mission: Impossible S6 episode "Blues" on Decades.

9th Logo (September 9, 1975-May 4, 1987)
Nicknames: "Late 1970s Mountain", "1980s Mountain", "Blue Mountain", "Gulf+Western Mountain V", "Still Mountain VI"

Logo: We see only the finished product of the 1975 movie logo, but more defined this time. The mountain has been modified to give more room for the word " Television " by compressing the mountain about one viewer's inch and downgrading the amount of indentations (or impressions) to 4 from its standard of 5. On a sky blue background, we see a near-circle made by 22 white stars. The near-circle contains a navy blue backdrop and a flat mountain in another shade of blue with the word " Paramount " in white above it. Below the mountain is the Gulf+Western byline in the same alignment as its movie counterpart. The word " Television " comes from the right and slides in below " Paramount ". Same alignment as the 3rd logo.

Variants:


 * This comes with or without a registered trademark "®" symbol under the right side of the near-circle.
 * This exists as both filmed and videotaped versions.
 * By around 1982, a new version of the Paramount Television logo is released utilizing the standard template of the main logo with all 5 indentations intact. As a result, the word " Television " overlaps the tip. You may notice on this that the portion of the "Television" logo that touches the mountain peak is a brighter white; this is due to "chroma-keying," per Benjamin Edge on Club CBS Television Studios on Facebook.
 * Depending on the film quality, the colors may vary from dark blue, all the way to a whitish-blue color. It has even been spotted in a reddish tint on the CBS DVD/VEI release of Petrocelli, specifically on the print of the season 2 episode "Face of Evil". A similar red-tinted version was found on a Me-TV airing of Happy Days season 6 episode "Kid Stuff", which mostly effected the white parts of the logo.
 * In the later usage of this logo, Paramount used some videotape trickery on some of their prints with this logo. Instead of letting the film clip roll as usual, what they do is show the still of the logo with just " Paramount " showing. Then it quickly fades into the animation of " Television " sliding in from the right, which then reverts back into a still image (this time, of the completed animation). This can be seen on the first two seasons of MacGyver, a few early episodes of Friday the 13th: The Series, the short-lived revival The New Love, American Style, the CBS sitcom The Cavanaughs, and the TV movie The Jesse Owens Story.
 * A similar variation to the one above exists of the filmed variant becoming a still image after " Television " slides to its place, and the logo fades to black slower than usual.
 * On the first episode of Webster in 1983, instead of the bombastic 1982 logo with " Television " sliding in in front of the mountain, the standard version (with " Television " coming into its usual place between " Paramount " and the mountain) is used, with the 1981 sounder.
 * On The Brady Brides, a still variant of this logo (without the sliding word " Television ") was used.
 * Another still variant exists with " Television " present. This was spotted on an USA Network airing of The Associates episode "The Censors".
 * On the first two episodes of The Brady Bunch Variety Hour, an in-credit variant was seen. On top is the text "Produced in association with PARAMOUNT TELEVISION", and below it is the print logo with the G+W byline in one line inside a square.
 * On Paramount's version of the 1979 Scooby-Doo and Scrappy-Doo series on Nickelodeon, the "Paramount" script can be seen in front of the print logo in white in a blue background.

Technique: The word "Television" sliding in.

Music/Sounds: A slower version of the Lalo Schifrin jingle which was first heard with 5th logo. There were many variations of this jingle throughout the '70s and '80s. There is also one completely different theme composed by Jerry Goldsmith used in 1977. A brief explanation of the jingles goes as follows:


 * September 9, 1975-1976: Marching band rendition of the Lalo Schifrin jingle.
 * 1976-1977: An 8-note horn fanfare composed by Jerry Goldsmith. A high tone theme also exists.
 * 1977-1979: Redone version of Jerry Goldsmith's jingle, sounding a little slower and more majestic.
 * 1978-1980: Slowed down version of the Schifrin jingle.
 * 1979-1987: The infamous medium tempo version with a xylophone in the background.
 * 1980-1983: Slower, xylophone driven version.
 * December 8, 1981: A rare version of the 1979 variation in which the xylophone has been made more apparent. This jingle has only been spotted on the Happy Days episode "Baby, It's Cold Inside".
 * 1981-March 28, 1985, October 9, 1986, December 16, 1987: Another medium tempo version which ends in a harp flourish. There has been other slight variations of this theme, and is most commonly found on Family Ties.
 * 1982-1987: Two bombastic horn-driven versions used. Xylophone accompanied on the first horn-driven version and what might sound like a harp on the second horn-driven version.
 * A stereo version of the aforementioned theme exists, and can be heard on shows like Cheers, All is Forgiven, and The Tortellis.
 * September 22, 1986-May 4, 1987: 2 different reverberated versions were used, and was heard only on season 2 episodes of MacGyver.

Music/Sounds Variants:


 * This logo was used with the 1972 "Split Rectangle II" music on nearly all season 1 and season 2 episodes of Happy Days when they aired on The Hub (now Discovery Family).
 * On reruns of Mannix from 1983, this logo used the previous three logo's themes:
 * The 1967 Desilu jingle (on episodes aired after January 1, 1968)
 * The 1968 Split Rectangle music (season 2)
 * The 1969 Split Rectangle music (both music versions; season 3 and part of season 4)
 * The 1970 Split Rectangle music (seasons 4-5)
 * The 1972 Split Rectangle music (seasons 6-7 and most of the final season)
 * The 1974 Split Rectangle music (early final season episodes - specifically the fall 1974 period)


 * In exceptional cases, the closing theme of the show or TV movie or nothing at all was used.
 * The first few notes of the 1982 logo played on the last few seconds of The Georgian Bay Ltd. logo on a few episodes of Webster DVD's, such as the S2 episode "The Uh-Oh Feeling."
 * An unknown show had a Moog theme playing over it.

Availability: Uncommon.


 * It's been spotted on Family Ties and most episodes of Happy Days when last seen on Hub Network (now Discovery Family), INSP TV, and Me-TV. It was seen on some episodes of Friday the 13th: The Series on Chiller (but not on DVD, nor on local airings), the first two seasons of MacGyver on Cloo, Me-TV and Netflix, and on the first and second season DVD releases of MacGyver from Paramount Home Entertainment. It also appears on recent DVD releases of the first four seasons of Webster from Shout! Factory (the Paramount logo on S1 would be the standard version with 1979 music [standard version meaning the one with the space between the mountain and "Paramount"] and the Paramount logo on a few S2 episodes and the entire 4th season would use the 1982 tall-peaked variant, though on some international reruns and DVD episodes, it would use the standard version).
 * Other programs it was seen on was 1981-1987 episodes of Solid Gold (the silent 1995 Domestic logo plasters over this logo on VH1 airings from 1998-99), DVD releases of Angie, Best of the West, Future Cop, The Bad News Bears, The Powers of Matthew Star, season 2 of Petrocelli (on DVD and on AXN Crime airings), Having Babies III on Amazon Prime Video, and The Winds of War miniseries on DVD.
 * This logo is also retained on the DVD's and Blu-rays of Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (the 1979 BBC TV series) and its sequel Smiley's People, as well as the short-lived Leslie Nielsen sitcom Police Squad! and the 1980 miniseries Shōgun.
 * Internationally, this logo also made a surprise appearance at the end of Australian airings of some episodes of both Mork & Mindy and Laverne & Shirley, as well as an episode of Taxi.
 * On VHS, this is retained on Mork & Mindy Vol. 1 (and possibly other volumes) and the silent version can be found on the VHS and the PAL DVD release of A Woman Called Golda.
 * It is unknown if this was seen on 1970s/1980s prints of The Lucy Show.
 * Paramount (Viacom) has plastered this logo with either the 1995 or 2003 Domestic logos on one local rerun episode of Cheers from S5 called "Norm's First Hurrah" and Aussie airings of most season 5 episodes of said show retained this logo. However, any new prints on local broadcast and later DVD prints would have this logo replaced by the CBS Television Distribution logo.
 * The tall-peaked variant with the 1979 jingle has been spotted on the Happy Days S5 episode "The Apartment", the 1983 Australian miniseries Return to Eden, and some season 5 episodes of Taxi like "Arnie Meets the Kids".

10th Logo (1980-1982)
Nicknames: "Mountain Silhouette", "Dark Mountain III", "Paramount Television Service"

Logo: A dark mountain with a light blue outline is seen against a pitch-black background. Suddenly, a large flash of light is seen at the mountain's peak, and several of these lights zoom in from the peak to the center of the screen. The "Paramount" script, which is yellow, can be seen zooming in with the lights, which then arrange themselves in a near-circle of 22 star-like lights. An elongated orange beam also zooms in to the bottom of the screen, and once everything is arranged, the orange beam transforms into the words "PARAMOUNT TELEVISION SERVICE". During all of this, the light blue outline transitions to orange.

Trivia: The logo was actually supposed to be a television station ident; it was around this time that a de-facto home video network by Paramount was in the works, but plans eventually fell through. Eventually, the earlier footage would be added to the beginning of the logo and the words "HOME VIDEO" would be chyroned over "PARAMOUNT TELEVISION SERVICE" to create Paramount Home Video's second logo.

Variant: A later version from February 1981, with a brighter background, simplified animation, and a byline reading "THE NEW NETWORK", was ultimately featured on the demo reel for the logo's designer, Sullivan & Marks.

Technique: The lights and the words "Paramount" and "Paramount Television Service" zooming in.

Music/Sounds: Same as the 9th logo.

Availability: Extremely rare. It was only on the first season of Solid Gold, which has this logo plastered by the CBS Television Distribution logo and Paramount's version of Season 2 of Scooby-Doo and Scrappy-Doo, which was first aired on Nickelodeon on October 28, 2021.

11th Logo (1982)
Nicknames: "Growing Mountain", "Cheesy Growing Mountain", "Paramount Domestic Television and Video Programming"

Logo: Same as the Paramount Video logo of the time, but with the text "DOMESTIC TELEVISION AND VIDEO PROGRAMMING" sandwiched between two lines. A different diamond-shaped flash effect is also used here.

Technique: Same as the Paramount Video logo of the time, with a different flash effect, which is much cheaper looking.

Music/Sounds: The closing theme of the promotional feature.

Availability: Ultra rare. Can be seen on the promotional featurette on disc 3 of Bosom Buddies: The Complete Second Season DVD set.

12th Logo (March 1987-August 27, 2006)
Nicknames: "CGI Mountain", "Majestic Mountain II", "Mountain of Monotony", "'90s Mountain", "Star Wars Mountain", "Gulf+Western Mountain VI", "Viacom Mountain", "Still Mountain II", "Still Mountain VII"

Logo: We see only the finished product of the 1986 movie logo. It is sometimes still, while other times it has the animated clouds moving westward in the background.

Bylines: On the bottom, the following bylines were used:


 * September 13, 1987-October 1989: "A Gulf + Western Company" (aligned similarly to the last logo)
 * October 1989-May 23, 1995: " A Paramount Communications Company " with a line above the byline. From October 1989-May 21, 1992 and September 12, 1994-January 27, 1995, the byline was in gold . From September 17, 1990-May 23, 1995, the byline was in white.
 * February 6, 1995-August 27, 2006: "A VIACOM COMPANY" (styled after Viacom's logo of the era), with a line above the byline.

Variants:


 * A variant of this logo with the " 75th Anniversary " text appeared on late 1987 episodes of Entertainment Tonight.
 * At the end of a 1987 outtake reel of Star Trek: The Next Generation, this variant was shown first as a still picture, then the logo was seen animating in reverse, beginning with the " 75th Anniversary " text fading out and continuing to the stars rolling and flying away. The logo then cuts to a clip of another mountain exploding from an episode of said show. The last episode of the second season of MacGyver has the prototype 75th Anniversary variant.
 * There's a second prototype variant where the Paramount script is still slightly small, but contains elements of the official variant, including the refined 75th Anniversary disclaimer. This can be seen on a March 1987 promotional reel.
 * There is a special bylineless version which appears on a Star Trek: Voyager special and on the opening of some episodes from Cinar's (now "WildBrain") The Busy World of Richard Scarry.
 * This logo can be in 4:3 or 16:9 (only the 1995 network variant has a 16:9 variation, which debuted in 1999).
 * Starting in 1995, when the logo is shown closer, it's from Paramount Network Television. However, if it's further away, it's from Paramount Domestic Television.
 * Strangely, some network TV shows from 1995-2002 used the Network logo for Paramount Domestic Television.
 * There is a grayscale variation of the 1995 Domestic logo seen on black & white syndicated reruns such as on The Andy Griffith Show, My Three Sons, The Beverly Hillbillies, and The Honeymooners on TV Land, and mid-90's prints of The Wild Wild West though most B&W shows use the color version (such as Have Gun, Will Travel prints and non-TV Land airings of B&W Gunsmoke episodes).
 * During the white-byline-Paramount Communications and Viacom eras, airings of TV movies would close the movie with the full logo's animation and then fade out before the byline faded in, technically creating a bylineless TV variant.
 * On the Ren and Stimpy episode A Yard Too Far, the clouds and stars are slightly darker, and the Paramount Communications byline now has a shadow.
 * The 1995 network variant often appeared with a noticeably chyroned Viacom byline, and was a still variant.
 * Starting in 1990 on Entertainment Tonight, this logo is seen in-credit, inside the area where superimposed footage plays during the credits.
 * Similarly, the French version of Entertainment Tonight (known as Exclusif or Exclusif ce soir, and aired between 1998-2002 on TF1) has a split-screen variant with the Case Production logo (even using the sound of said logo) which is seen at the beginning and ending of the program.
 * On original NBC airings of Frasier and Wings, the logo is part of the split-screen credits; the stars, "Paramount" text and the byline are drastically smaller to fit inside of it. The Paramount Communications byline now spans across two lines here.
 * On The Busy World of Richard Scarry, the logo appeared at the beginning with the show's theme playing in the background, and the mountain fades into a mountain in the show.
 * 1987 episodes of Entertainment Tonight have the logo still for a second before the fanfare plays and the clouds start animating.
 * The 1999 variant was only seen in all episodes of Courage the Cowardly Dog.
 * A bad Blue Mountain plastering error appeared once: the Blue Mountain logo started, but was cut off by this logo. This is most likely due to a bad plastering error.
 * The domestic version of this logo is zoomed in on 2000s prints of The Invaders.
 * The first two episodes of Season 3 of Friday the 13th: The Series had animated clouds on the 1989 gold Paramount Communications variant.
 * A filmed version exists.

Technique:


 * 1987-1995: None.
 * 1987-1989; 1990-1995: Only the clouds moving westward in the background.
 * 1995-2006: (Network and domestic television): Same as first two.

Music/Sounds: A re-orchestrated version of the last six notes to Paramount Pictures' 1987 theatrical fanfare, which is a re-arrangement of Elsie Janis/Jack King's Paramount on Parade by Jerry Goldsmith, first heard on trailers for Paramount Pictures since 1976, and is in the key of B♭ major. (Lalo Schifrin is credited as composer of this theme on the Star Trek: Enterprise soundtrack.) It may remind some viewers of the Star Wars theme (hence the nickname "Star Wars Mountain"). There are two main versions of the theme. The second version, which officially debuted in 1989, has the first note of the fanfare and the last note's echo in a slightly lower pitch. Many of these logos are plastered onto old shows (mostly on TV Land airings, as well as TV movies) with the logo being silent.

Pre-1987 Paramount Television Music/Sounds Variants: As a result of poor attempts at plastering, each variant of the logo was spotted with the following themes from the 3rd, 7th, 8th, and 9th logos:


 * 1987 logo with 1979 and 1980 themes, reportedly spotted on older Bosom Buddies reruns on TBS.
 * 1989 logo with gold byline with the 1970 and 1978 themes.
 * 1990 logo with 1970, 1972, 1976, 1978 and 1979 themes. The version with the 1976 theme was spotted on 90s prints of the TV movies Nero Wolfe and Delta Country U.S.A., the version with the 1978 theme was spotted on Me-TV's print of the Taxi episode "Jim and the Kid", and the version with the 1979 theme was spotted on an Australian airing of Taxi.
 * 1995 domestic logo with 1968, 1970, 1972, 1976, 1978, 1979, 1980, 1981, and 1982 themes. The 1978 theme variant was seen on most episodes of Mork & Mindy on Syfy, while a few had the 1981-B theme variant, an early 2000's airing of The Fonz and the Happy Days Gang episode "Westward Whoa!" on TV Land used the 1980 theme variant, and the 1968 theme variant was seen on a French airing of Mannix. Several reverse plaster spottings involving Blue Mountain jingles include Fox Family (now Freeform) airings of The Brady Brides, repeats of several Mork & Mindy episodes when they last aired on older Hub Network and Fox Family airings, and an early 2000's airing of The Fonz and the Happy Days Gang episode "Westward Whoa!" on TV Land.
 * 1995 network logo with 1930 theme from the Second Sight UK Blu-ray of Creepshow.

Other Music/Sounds Variants:


 * On Judge Judy (season 4 to mid-season 6), Judge Joe Brown (seasons 2 & 3), the final 2 seasons of Judge Mills Lane in syndication (and on Pluto TV), the final 2 seasons of Nash Bridges, and The Adventures of Corduroy, the end themes would play over the 1995 Domestic or Network logo.
 * On an episode of Entertainment Tonight, aired May 16, 1990, the logo is silent, out of a show of respect to Sammy Davis, Jr. and Jim Henson, who both passed away that day and were the focus of the episode.
 * At the end of a 1987 outtake reel of Star Trek: The Next Generation, the last note from the 1966 Star Trek: The Original Series theme music (aka "Theme from Star Trek"), is heard, followed by the 1967 Desilu logo's music, the 1979 Paramount Television theme, and some suspenseful music sounding like the theme music from the 1975 film Jaws before finally concluding with an explosion sound.
 * A low-toned version was spotted on some episodes of Family Affair on Me-TV and Decades, which plastered older Viacom logos.
 * A version exists that has the last note of the theme cut short.
 * Another version exists that uses the last 4 notes of the theme.
 * On the 2001 remaster and HD remasters of Cheers, 2000s prints of The Love Boat, an episode of season 3 of 7th Heaven on Hulu, and seasons 2 through 6 of Charmed on DVD, the 1989 version of the theme is slightly re-orchestrated and has a different echo at the end.
 * On some episodes of Gomer Pyle, USMC when they were aired on Me-TV and possibly other shows formerly distributed by Viacom, the "V of Doom" music in warp-speed is heard with the 1995 domestic logo. Similarly, mid-1990s prints of Our Miss Brooks have the 1995 Domestic logo with a low-toned regular 1976 "V of Doom" reverse-plaster.
 * On a few episodes of Gunsmoke last aired on Encore Westerns, the Viacom "V of Steel" music in normal speed would be heard with the 1995 domestic logo due to sloppy plastering. The music would jarringly cut after the logo fades out.
 * Reportedly, TubiTV's print of the 1990 film Men at Work had the Viacom "Wigga Wigga" music with V/O play over the 1995 domestic logo due to sloppy plastering.
 * The first episode of The Invaders on a foreign DVD set had the 1995 domestic logo intact but with the 1988 Worldvision "Whoosh Globe" music playing over it due to sloppy plastering. This also was spotted on some early 2000s prints of The Love Boat episodes.
 * A February 2019 rerun of Nash Bridges on H&I used the CBS Television Distribution music with the 1995 Network logo. This is most likely a reverse plaster.
 * On a TV Land airing of the Happy Days episode "Guess Who's Coming to Christmas" in July 2003, a split second of the previous logo's music can be heard and it then abruptly cuts to the regular theme of this logo, probably because of a poor plastering job.
 * On syndicated airings of Taxi, the 1982 theme from the previous logo is heard faintly before it is cut off by this logo's fanfare.
 * One CBS Justice print of an episode of Gunsmoke had the Viacom "V of Doom" music play faintly under the 1995 Domestic version of this logo.
 * Network airings on ABC, CBS, Fox and NBC used a generic theme instead.
 * On the 1988 game show Wipeout and the pilot of What's Alan Watching?, the 1987 theme is slightly re-orchestrated.
 * Starting in 1997 on network shows with 5.1 surround sound, like Frasier and Becker, the fanfare is slightly re-orchestrated.
 * Starting in 1995, most shows from Paramount Domestic Television used the 1989 version of the theme. However, on shows from PDT like Entertainment Tonight and Hard Copy, the 1987 version is used.
 * Season 1 episodes of Girlfriends had the fanfare played in mono.
 * The 1988 version of Mission: Impossible plays the 1989 version of the fanfare on this logo.
 * On at least one Season 8 episode of Happy Days, the 1979 fanfare is heard faintly on the 1995 Network logo.

Availability: Common. The 1995-2002 Viacom variation plastered over previous logos before being plastered by the CBS Television Distribution logo.


 * The Gulf+Western variation was once found on later Family Ties episodes (seen intact on recent airings such as those on Antenna TV), 1987-1989 Cheers episodes in syndication, and Friday the 13th: The Series on Chiller and certain episodes on Syfy. On Netflix, the Gulf+Western version has also turned up on the last 2 seasons of Family Ties (plastered on DVD), as well as seasons 3-4 and the first 4 season 5 episodes of MacGyver, which can also be seen on Pluto TV. The short-lived 1988-89 game show Wipeout (with Peter Tomarken) had this as well, and it was retained when the USA Network reran from 1989 to 1991 (episodes can be found on YouTube). This variation usually gets plastered with the Viacom variation.
 * The silent Viacom bylined 1995 logo was used to plaster Viacom logos. Since Viacom owns TV Land, many airings of Viacom shows had their logos plastered by this one. These prints are still used, and you may come across some of them if you watch some of these shows that TV Land had aired. Some of these shows include The Andy Griffith Show, the 1970 Harlem Globetrotters cartoon, Cannon, color Gunsmoke episodes (and even some black and white episodes), Petticoat Junction (also seen on Me-TV and H&I airings), Family Affair, Gomer Pyle USMC, Hawaii Five-O, I Love Lucy, My Three Sons, The Honeymooners, The Fonz & the Happy Days Gang, and The Beverly Hillbillies (these prints were also used for Nick at Nite airings). It is unknown if this applied to TV Land airings of The Dick Van Dyke Show, seasons 1-8 of Matlock, The Devlin Connection, The New Adventures of Mighty Mouse and Heckle and Jeckle, and Perry Mason.
 * Non-TV Land programs that used the silent variant are Frasier on Lifetime, Hallmark Channel, and DVD box sets, Cheers on Hallmark Channel, Netflix, Me-TV, Reelz Channel, WGN America, and DVD prints up to season 8, the final season of Matlock (S8 DVDs use the CBS Television Distribution logo instead), the second season of Diagnosis Murder on Me-TV and Hallmark Movies & Mysteries (S2 DVDs use the CBS Paramount "Wallpaper" logo instead), Star Trek: The Next Generation when it was on WGN America, the first two seasons of Soul Food: The Series on TV One, The Lucy Show prints, Mork & Mindy prints, Sabrina The Teenage Witch on Antenna TV and when last seen on Hub Network (before the rebrand to Discovery Family), The Dead Zone on Cloo, Me-TV airings of Taxi, The Odd Couple prints, a 2013 airing of Return to Mayberry (after the Viacom "V of Happiness"), 1998-99 VH1 airings of Solid Gold, Have Gun – Will Travel and The Wild Wild West airings on Me-TV and H&I (as well as The Wild Wild West airings on mid-1990's TNT airings, current FETV airings, and French-localized prints), USA Network's airings of the 1st 4 seasons of Nash Bridges (H&I airings of these seasons have the CBS Television Distribution logo, but is still found on the last 2 seasons when aired), Rawhide on H&I and Me-TV [though scarcely appearing], The Phil Silvers Show on Decades [also scarcely appearing], H&I airings of JAG (except seasons 3 and 4), Portuguese-localized The Twilight Zone episodes on USA Network [though scarcely], and Hogan's Heroes on Forces TV in the United Kingdom [though scarcely]. It was also seen on 2000 syndicated airings of some Sabrina the Teenage Witch episodes and is intact (with the end theme playing over) on Judge Mills Lane on Pluto TV.
 * On the initial U.S. syndication reruns of the 1st 4 seasons of Webster, the 1987 logo plastered the "Blue Mountain" on all but a select few episodes, as did the 1995 Domestic logo on much later U.S. syndication reruns after 1995.
 * The 1990 and 1995 variants appear on Wings on USA Network, DVDs use CBS Paramount Domestic Television starting with season 4, and later seasons use CTD.
 * The 1989 logo with the gold Paramount Communications byline lasted until January 27, 1995, and during its lifespan was used on the syndicated 1994-1995 The New Price Is Right show, DVD and Netflix's prints of seasons 5-7 of MacGyver, the first season DVD of Wings, Get TV airings of The Boy Who Loved Christmas, and the 1993 unaired pilot Gloria Vane.
 * The 1990 logo with the white Paramount Communications byline made its final regular appearance on The Marshal season 1 episode "The Great Train Robbery", aired on February 11, 1995, while its final overall appearance was on The Laverne & Shirley Reunion.
 * Star Trek: Enterprise season 1 reruns on Netflix and DVD retain the 1995 Viacom-byline logo, while they are replaced by the CBS Television Distribution logo on the 2013 Blu-ray set. This was also seen on the final 2 seasons (1st-run syndication-era) episodes of Webster.
 * This logo makes a surprise appearance with the fanfare on digital prints of Don't Give Up the Ship, the 1997 VHS release of It's Christmastime Again, Charlie Brown after the said special's closing credits and on a demo VHS tape of Boohbah: Comfy Armchair following the Dot variant of the PBS Kids Video logo.
 * This logo also apears on Exclusif Ce Soir, a short-lived French adaptation of Entertainment Tonight that used to be shown on the TF1 network.
 * An airing of the Star Trek episode "Coda" on Australian channel FOX Sci Fi retained the 1995 variant.
 * This logo is intact on the pilot episode of the UPN sitcom Girlfriends on Netflix (the rest of season 1 uses CBS Paramount Television).
 * Although the logo was updated in 2002, The Dead Zone still used the 1995 network variant until 2006, and most episodes of Unexplained Mysteries used the 1995 domestic variant until the show ended in 2004 and most episodes of What's New, Scooby-Doo? also used the 1995 domestic variant until the show ended in 2006.

 * Like the 6th logo, the 1989 version of the theme is used on most shows from Paramount Domestic Television. However, on some shows from PDT, like Season 1-early Season 9 of Dr. Phil, Montel, Entertainment Tonight, The Insider and Hot Ticket, the original 1987 version is used.
