<u>Logo:</u> On a light blue background, the cerulean text "CBS" (in ITC Avant Garde Bold Italic), flies in from the left. When this happens, it leaves a trail behind, which the second one is to be resemble a globe. While the text flies in, we see some black stripes from the top and bottom. Then the white text, "A CBS BROADCAST INTERNATIONAL PRESENTATION" (in same font as "CBS" but in a lighter weight) fades-in.

<u>Availability:</u> Very rare. Seen on some TV movies from the era, like Who is Julia? and Under the Influence. Also was seen on some episodes The (New) Twilight Zone on Chiller, followed by the CBS Television Distribution logo, it's unknown if MeTV airings will retain this due to CTD plastering.

<u>Logo:</u> On a dark blue background, we see a globe being formed by longitudinal and latitudinal lines, dropping from the top. As it is done forming, it then shines and pans out, as the globe becomes 3D, and we pan out to a sky blue background, with the globe panning out to the CBS Eye logo. The letters "CBS" in the CBS Didot font (which is CBS's proprietary font) appear next to the CBS Eye. Under all that is "CBS BROADCAST INTERNATIONAL" (set in Helvetica Italic).
