===Background===
On August 10, 2004, [[Viacom Productions|Viacom]], Inc. formed "[[CBS Paramount International Television]]" as a merger of two successful international television companies: [[Paramount Television (1967-2006)|Paramount International Television]] and [[CBS Broadcast International]]. That same date, Viacom formed the CBS Paramount Network Television Entertainment Group as a result of two television production companies: [[Paramount Television (1967-2006)|Paramount Network Television]] and [[CBS Productions]]. Their respective names and logos, however, were kept. After the CBS and [[Viacom (2006-2019)|Viacom]] split was made official on December 31, 2005, beginning on January 17, 2006, the CBS Paramount Network Television Entertainment Group and Paramount Domestic Television became part of the new semi-independent CBS Corporation. Because of this new ownership, it was decided that CBS would add their name to the studio's television unit, thus creating '''CBS Paramount Television''', consisting of CBS Paramount Network Television, CBS Paramount Domestic Television, and CBS Paramount International Television (spun-off as "[[CBS Studios International]]" (now [[Paramount Global Content Distribution]]) in 2009). The transition was quick but gradually done, with copyrights to "CBS Studios Inc." appearing on shows such as ''Entertainment Tonight'' as early as February. Although, the post-2006 episodes of shows like ''CSI'' still kept the copyright to '[[CBS Broadcasting|CBS Broadcasting, Inc.]]' The logos would make their debut by early summer '06, with CBS Paramount Television's "Eye in the Sky" syndication logo debuting on May 29th, 2006 - Memorial Day on that day's run of syndicated daytime programming from the company, retiring this one in September 2007 when the [[CBS Television Distribution]] logo debuted, since its formation on September 26, 2006 by [[King World Productions|King World]], CBS Paramount Domestic Television, CBS Paramount International Television, and [[CBS Home Entertainment]]. The network television logo, "Wallpaper," wouldn't appear on TV screens until June 11, 2006 on season 3 of ''The 4400'' on USA. The label went defunct on May 15, 2009, when the main CBS Paramount Television group and its network television unit were reincorporated as "[[CBS Studios|CBS Television Studios]]" by dropping the Paramount name and logo. Viacom relaunched a new version of [[Paramount Television Studios|Paramount Television]] four years later.

The label became regulated to network shows in September 2007 when [[CBS Television Distribution]], which was formed through a merger of [[King World Productions]] and CBS Paramount Domestic Television, took control over CBS Paramount's syndicated output, and went defunct on May 15, 2009, when the main CBS Paramount Television group and its network television unit were reincorporated as "[[CBS Studios|CBS Television Studios]]" by dropping the Paramount name and logo. Viacom relaunched a new version of [[Paramount Television Studios|Paramount Television]] four years later.

'''Visuals:''' On a black screen, we see the CBS Eyemark logo zooming out to the middle. We later see two streaks of light pass through the words "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''CBS ''Paramount'''''}}" (with the company names in their respective typeface), a line, and "TELEVISION" below it. The company name quickly zooms out to the center of the screen, with "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''CBS'''}}" zooming out first, and "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''''Paramount'''''}} TELEVISION" zooming out second. The background quickly fades to a {{color|navy|navy blue}} background with a wallpaper of CBS Eyes and Paramount print logos in a curved pattern and shining light rays filling the screen. The name later zooms in slowly.

'''Trivia:''' The "Eyemark/Mountain" logo is a throwback to the 1959-1962 "CBS Eyemark Wallpaper" logo.

'''Visuals:''' We see a large {{color|blue|bluish}} CBS Eye in a cloudscape reminiscent of the 2002 Paramount logo. In the foreground, the words "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''CBS ''Paramount'''''}}" appear above a line which has "TELEVISION" written underneath, in the same design as the Network TV logo. The company name has an Eyemark to the left of it, and a Paramount print logo at the right, and everything is in white with a {{color|gold}} outline. The text and the print logos slowly zoom out together. The entire logo is in 3D, and a lens flare shines over the entire background.
