'''Logo:''' We see a still picture of a brand new Columbia Torch Lady (painted by Michael J. Deas, and modeled by Louisiana homemaker, Jenny Joseph; some think it looks like actress Annette Benning) holding a light torch on top of a new pedestal against a cloud background with a {{color|dodgerblue|blue}} sky around it. The word "{{color|silver|'''COLUMBIA'''}}" appears in giant chiseled {{color|silver|silver}} letters behind her at the very top, similar to the classic Columbia Pictures logo from 1936-1976. Underneath the lady are the words "'''COLUMBIA PICTURES TELEVISION'''", or until 1996, "'''COLUMBIA PICTURES TELEVISION DISTRIBUTION'''" (in the Bank Gothic Condensed Bold font) and underneath that is the byline "a SONY PICTURES ENTERTAINMENT company".
