**The short-lived series ''Secret Agent Man'' has the standard, high, low and very low tone variants.

* On Crackle and Tubi prints of the ''Sheena'' episode "The Fool Monty", the high pitched 2002 SPT theme plays over the alternate "Eurostile Thin" CTTD logo.

* Some episodes of ''Father Knows Best'' on Antenna TV have the [[Colex Enterprises]] logo music playing over this logo. This is due to a plaster error.

* On international and Disney+ printings of the 1999 ''Annie'' remake, the two first notes are cut off.

* Episodes of the short-lived UPN series ''Guys Like Us'' uses the abridged 1996 [[TriStar Television (1991-1999)|TriStar Television]] theme used on ''The Nanny''.

*On two airings of two S5 episodes of ''One Day at a Time'', either plaster error occurs.

**One of them is "Small Wonder", where the first note of the 1982 CPT theme plays faintly.

'''Availability:''' Seen on pre-2003 prints of shows from the company.

 

* It also occasionally appeared on Sony-owned programs on GSN like ''Russian Roulette'', seasons 1-5 of ''Hollywood Squares'', and the Donny Osmond version of ''Pyramid''. It also appeared on every episode of ''Harold and the Purple Crayon'' on HBO Family -- even though it no longer airs nowadays, the CTT logo was always retained whenever the network reran the series. However, the DVD releases and CTV Throwback prints plaster it with the Sony Pictures Television logo.

*The CTDT logos can also be seen on season 2 DVD releases of ''All in the Family'', ''Sanford and Son'', ''Good Times'', and ''The Jeffersons'', and a couple episodes on the season 4 DVD release of ''Punky Brewster'' (with the [[NBC Enterprises]] or [[NBCUniversal Television Distribution|NBC Universal Television Distribution]] logo following it, this was kept on one episode on Peacock but with the 1982 CPT and the current NBCUniversal Television Distribution logos following this logo), and was last seen on reruns of ''Mad About You'' on Antenna TV (plastering the 1992 TriStar Television logo), among others. CTTD or CTDT can also be spotted on several Sony classic movies on TCM occasionally.

*As for the high and low tones, they were last seen on most season 2 episodes of ''Jackie Chan Adventures'' when it was reran on Cartoon Network. Current prints of season 2 plaster the logo over with the SPT logo (like when it popped up on Disney XD at one point). The low-tone variant was also seen on the short-lived series ''Secret Agent Man'' when it was aired on UPN and is also retained on the Australian DVD. CTTD can be found on ''Sleepless in Seattle'' and ''The Quick and the Dead'' on TBS and TNT, ''The Jeffersons'' episode "Lunch with Mama" on TV One, and some films on ThisTV like ''Swamp Thing'', ''Casualties of War'' or ''1941''. The latter title was followed by the SPT logo. CTDT was found (followed by SPT) on the ''Married... with Children episode'' "Have You Driven a Ford Lately" on TBS.

*The short version was commonly seen on ''Walker, Texas Ranger'' (including syndicated reruns of the 1993 pilot season) and the animated TV show adaptation of ''Dilbert'' (also on UPN and preserved on some current prints, like on Tubi). It was also last seen on 1998-2002 episodes of ''Dawson's Creek'' on The N (now [[TeenNick Originals|TeenNick]]); the first two season DVD sets and Tubi prints of said show retain it. The Distribution variant was recently spotted on Crackle prints on some episodes of ''Crazy Like a Fox'' (while the GREAT! TV UK airings have the regular variant).

*The "open matte" version was seen at the end of ''Guess Who's Coming to Dinner'' on Centric (now BET Her). The first filmed version appeared on some TV movies like ''Rag & Bone'', ''Into Thin Air: Death on Everest'', and ''Double Platinum'', and is preserved on the DVD releases of the latter TV movies.

*A widescreen filmed variant of the 1999 Columbia TriStar Television logo was spotted on an HBO Asia airing of ''Call Me Claus'' (followed by the 2014 version of the Sony Pictures Television logo) and the Hulu print of the 2000 TV movie ''The Three Stooges'' (followed by the 2002 Sony Pictures Television logo).

*The black-and-white variant of the CTT logo can be seen on several episodes of ''The Adventures of Rin Tin Tin'' on Antenna TV, and the episode "Yo-o Rinty" used the 1993 TriStar Television theme with it. It also appears on several episodes of ''Gidget'' on Antenna TV, which happens to be TV Land's prints plastering the [[Screen Gems (1948-1974)|Screen Gems]] "S from Hell" logo.

*On Netflix and Amazon, this can be found on most episodes of ''The Tick''.

* CTDT can also be found on S1 episodes of ''The Shield'' on Crackle and the region 1 DVD release. It can be also found on BounceTV's airings of ''Blue Streak''.

*The CTTD logo first appeared on ''Stooge TV'', a ''Three Stooges'' program block on The Family Channel in 1996. This can also be found on the ''Seinfeld 100th Episode'' VHS tape released in 1995 as part of a promotion with General Mills.

*Both CTT and CTDT variants can be found (in HD) on S1 episodes (and the first four S2 episodes) of ''The Guardian'' on Amazon, iTunes and [[Paramount+]]. The CTTD logo is also seen on five episodes of ''The Edge'' (while the rest retain the 1992 TriStar Television logo) on DVD, which can be bought [http://shop.1asecure.com/prod.cfm?ProdID=463631&StID=3329#.VetC15dcihb here].

*The "Eurostile Thin" version of CTTD is a tough one, but it can be currently seen on season 2 episodes of ''Strong Medicine'' on Start TV (and previously on Lifetime, where the show originally aired), as well as on The Roku Channel, Tubi and CTV Throwback prints. It also appeared on ''V.I.P.'' and ''Sheena'' (both of these being first-run syndication shows), as well as on some episodes of Lifetime's ''Oh, Baby'' (the CTV Throwback prints retains it), USA Network's ''The Net'' (DVD and Crackle prints have it plastered with SPT) and season 2 of the the Showtime original series ''Rude Awakening'', among possibly others. This version was also seen on two short-lived series, ''The $treet'' and ''Grosse Point'' (the former hasn't been reran since it originally aired on Fox; the latter was released on DVD, although it's plastered by the SPT logo there), both of which were co-produced by [[Artists Television Group]].

* The logo was also shown surprisingly intact on PBS Kids Sprout (now Universal Kids) airings of ''Dragon Tales''.

* The CTTD version appears on season 1 episodes of ''Sledge Hammer!'' last seen on Me-TV, following the [[New World Entertainment|New World Television]] logo and followed by the SPT logo, and was seen on at least one episode of ''The Donna Reed Show'' on Me-TV.

*It can also be found on Australian airings of ''The King of Queens'' on Channel Eleven and current international prints, usually followed by a [[CBS Broadcast International]] or [[CBS Studios International]] logo.

* The CTT variant of this logo also makes a surprise appearance on Laff's print of the film ''If Lucy Fell''.

*It also appeared on one episode of ''Barney Miller'' on the Shout! Factory DVD set and on German airings of the final season of ''The Nanny'' (replacing the TriStar Television logo).

*The CTTD variant of this logo also appears at the end of the "US Broadcast TV" cut of ''Ghostbusters'' on the bonus disc of the 2022 Collector's Edition Blu-ray release, marking the logo's Blu-ray debut.

* The CTT variant of this logo also appeared on Hulu's print of the ''Jumanji'' episode "The Red and the Black", while the rest of season 2 uses the previous logo.

* This was also seen on the short-lived ''Party of Five'' spin-off ''Time of Your Life'' (CTV Throwback's prints also retain it), and some episodes of ''Silk Stalkings.''

*The CTT variant of this logo also appears at the end of ''Frank Capra's American Dream'' which appears on The Criterion Collection Blu-ray release of ''It Happened One Night'' (1934).
