===7th Logo (September 13, 1986-December? 1990)===

* The British [[Braveworld (UK)|Braveworld Video]] VHS of ''King Creole'' has a variant that cuts off the first or so second from the logo.

* On some episodes of 90s TBS Superstation airings of ''Perry Mason'', the logo is colored {{font color|green|green}}.

* Some episodes of ''Gunsmoke'', ''Matlock'' (seasons 1-4), and one episode of ''Hogan's Heroes'' (seen in Australia) have the 1990 "Wigga-Wigga" music playing over this. A Russian print of ''Father Dowling Mysteries'' S1 EP3 also features this over the warp-speed variant, which continues into the 2007 [[CBS Media Ventures|CBS Television Distribution]] logo.

** It is currently seen on ''Rawhide'' on Me-TV, Decades (occasionally) and H&I.  

** It's also currently seen on most episodes of ''The Phil Silvers Show'' on Me-TV, Forces TV (United Kingdom) and occasionally seen on Decades, and it is preserved on the season 2 Shout! Factory DVD of the show, and on most episodes from seasons 3-4 of ''TPSS'' on DVD (season 1 on DVD and the British DVD releases use CTD instead), and was on most episodes of ''The Beverly Hillbillies'', as well as ''Gunsmoke'' (mostly color reruns) on Me-TV before they were issued updated prints by CBS, although for ''The Beverly Hillbillies'', it can still be seen on some episodes (the earliest episode to have this is "Meanwhile, Back at the Ranch"), and as for ''Gunsmoke'', it can still appear on certain episodes from season 14 (the third color season) onward.  

** It was spotted on the 1989 film ''Sonny Boy'' on TCM as well as AMC, and has been spotted on syndicated prints of Cannon films, such as ''Superman IV: The Quest for Peace''.  

** This can also be seen on most episodes of ''The Life and Times of Grizzly Adams'' on the recent DVD releases.  

** Seen on '80s prints of other Viacom-distributed shows, including at one point in time, episodes of ''The Andy Griffith Show'' (particularly reruns on TBS), as well as episodes of ''I Love Lucy'' on Nick at Nite (as well as AMC briefly), ''Have Gun-Will Travel'' on Encore Westerns, various prints of ''The Cosby Show'' and ''Roseanne'', ''Rawhide'' on the Hallmark Channel as well as Encore Westerns, ''The Millionaire'' on TV Land, and various episodes of ''Hogan’s Heroes'' on Forces TV in the United Kingdom and Fox Classics in Australia, among possible others.  

** It is unknown if this was seen on '80s prints of ''The Dick Van Dyke Show'', ''The New Adventures of Mighty Mouse'', ''Petticoat Junction'', ''The Houndcats'', ''The Harlem Globetrotters'' (1970s cartoon), ''Hawaii Five-0'', ''Amigo and Friends'', ''Gomer Pyle: U.S.M.C.'', ''The Honeymooners'', ''Whirlybirds'' and ''Our Miss Brooks'', among possible others.  

** It can be seen on the ''Perry Mason'' made-for-TV movies from 1987-89, and some from the earlier part of 1990 along with some prints of previous ones (though most use the warp speed variant), but DVDs plaster it over with the CBS Television Distribution logo. However, it is preserved on some VHS tapes such as the British VHS release of ''Perry Mason: The Case of the Lethal Lesson'', but these aren't easy to come by, and as far as we can tell, have never been released to VHS in the United States.  

** It was also seen on some episodes of ''Perry Mason'' on Me-TV before they were issued updated prints by CBS, but these prints can still be seen as of recently on FETV.  

** This logo (and its extended variants) is also seen on various game shows syndicated by Viacom from 1986-1990, including ''Split Second'', ''Double Dare'' (this includes recent prints on iTunes), and ''Remote Control''.  

** The B&W variant can be found at the end of select VHS tapes of ''The Andy Griffith Show'' that were released by Premier Promotions, including notably ''The Andy Griffith Show Collector's Series Volume 12: Mayberry Classics'', and was recently spotted on a Season 08 episode of ''Rawhide'' on Me-TV.  

** This logo was also spotted on British VHS releases of ''Fun in Acapulco'', ''King Creole'', ''Roustabout'' and ''All in a Night's Work'', older prints of ''Dempsey'' and ''Makepeace'', ''Father Dowling Mysteries'', a Decades broadcast of ''The Blue Knight'' (1975), at least one episode of ''The Twilight Zone'' on the French version of the Sci-Fi Channel, a Movies! broadcast of the 1971 docudrama ''Evel Knievel'', a Escape (now Court TV Mystery) airing of the 1989 film ''Night Game'', a recent TCM UK broadcast of ''Wild Geese II'' (1985), the 1987 Cannon film ''Three Kinds of Heat'', which can be found on Netflix UK, Amazon Prime, Paramount+ and Epix.com, and international prints of seasons 1-4 (and some of season 5) of ''Matlock'', though most use the warp speed variant. It does appear on a few Season 3-4 episodes of ''Matlock'' on CBS Justice (UK).  

** The "in-progress" variant can be found on the [[Universal Pictures Home Entertainment|MCA/Universal Home Video]] VHS of ''Super Force'', the unsold ''Baby on Board'' pilot from 1988, as well as at least one episode of ''Rawhide'' on Me-TV.  

** It has also been seen on some episodes of ''A Different World'' on Netflix.  

** It was also spotted on syndicated prints of the 1979 Canadian sports drama, ''Running''.

** This made a surprise appearance recently on episodes of ''All in the Family'' on Sky Go New Zealand (such as the pilot).

** This can also be seen on the Late-2010s printing of the film ''Katherine'' on YouTube Movies & Shows.  

** The Green version was only seen on 90s TBS Superstation airings of ''Perry Mason'' (Such as the episode “The Case of the Fickle Filly”).

* '''''Extended Variant (3-4 Wipes)'':'''  

** The long variant (3 wipes) can be found on the [[Family Home Entertainment]] VHS of ''The Adventures of the Little Koala'' and was on at least one episode of ''Perry Mason'' on Me-TV before being issued an updated print by CBS, while the long version with 4 wipes is extremely rare, and made its premiere on the short-lived NBC-aired sitcom ''Easy Street'', and was last spotted on the Toffler version of ''Finders Keepers'' on the now-defunct Nick GAS network. This is also seen on various game shows syndicated by Viacom from 1986-1990, including ''Split Second'', ''Double Dare'' (this includes recent prints on iTunes), and ''Remote Control''. The 3 wipes variant was also spotted on a 2017 FETV broadcast of the ''Perry Mason'' episode "The Case of the Poison Pen Pal".

* '''''Silent Variant'':''' Extremely rare. Originally, it could only be seen on syndicated TV prints of ''The Stepford Wives'' (the 1975 version), though it was recently spotted on the Forces TV print of the ''Hogan's Heroes'' episode "The Most Escape-Proof Camp I've Ever Escaped From", which is from season 2, although Fox Classics’ print has the theme present on it.

* '''''Warp Speed Variant'':'''  

** This can currently be found on some episodes of ''Rawhide'' on Me-TV, Decades (occasionally) and H&I.  

** It's also seen on older prints of ''Matlock'' (season 1-5, 1990 episodes; current TV prints use the 8th logo instead, while the DVD of S1 uses CBS/Paramount and every other season on DVD uses CTD instead). Oddly, FETV's print of the ''Matlock'' S1 episode, "The Don, Part 1" had this preserved. Many Season 3 and 4 episodes of ''Matlock'' on CBS Justice (UK) as well as a few season 2 episodes and 2 season 1 episodes keep this logo intact. Its spin-off ''Jake and the Fatman'' (DVDs and TV prints of seasons 1 and 2 use CTD instead.), ''Father Dowling Mysteries'' (including a few early season 3 episodes), and a Brazilian VHS of ''Fatal Confession: A Father Dowling Mystery'' (and DVD print) all have this logo.  

** This is also preserved on the season 1 DVD release of ''Father Dowling Mysteries'', preceded by CTD and can be seen on the other two seasons as well. Decades airings use the DVD prints of ''Father Dowling Mysteries'' as well.  

** It was also seen on a 2016 British Horror Channel airing of ''Murder by Moonlight'', and was presumably present on the film's original CBS broadcast.  

** It is unknown if this is preserved on season 3 and 1990 episodes of S4 of ''Jake and the Fatman'' on DVD.  

** The "DISTRIBUTED BY" variant is ultra rare, as it's only known to exist on ''Superboy''. However, the show's DVD release from Warner Home Video retains it.

* '''''Warp Speed Variant (Extended)'':''' Extremely rare, usually plastered by either the "Wigga-Wigga", [[Paramount Television (1967-2006)|Paramount Domestic Television]], [[CBS Studios|CBS Paramount Domestic/Network Television]] ("Eye in the Sky" or "Wallpaper"), or CBS Television Distribution logos, though they have been spotted on a few episodes of ''Rawhide'' on Me-TV and H&I, and the 4 wipe version was spotted on an Australian television print of the ''Hogan's Heroes'' episode "Request Permission to Escape", which is the last episode of season 1. When the episode aired in the UK on Forces TV, the last wipe was cut off. It was also seen on UK airings of some episodes of ''The Life and Times of Grizzly Adams''.

* '''''Sped-Up Variant'':''' Seen on ''Perry Mason: The Case of the Poisoned Pen''. It was also seen on Season 3 and 4 episodes of ''Matlock'', when last aired on CBS Justice in the UK.

* '''''Ultra Warp Speed Variant'':''' The ultra warp speed version can be seen on Netflix's prints, most official YouTube prints, some VHS tapes, and The Family Channel airings of ''The Super Mario Bros. Super Show'' and ''The Legend of Zelda'' (1989 cartoon), although international prints have the 1988 [[Saban Entertainment|Saban International]] logo. The logo is retained on the DVD of the latter show ''The Power of the Triforce'' as well.

* '''''Ultra Warp Speed Variant (Extended)'':''' Extremely rare. Could probably be seen on earlier prints of ''The Super Mario Bros. Super Show'' and ''The Legend of Zelda''.
