* '''Opening:''' Against a space background with twinkling stars, a metallic steel outline of the Viacom "'''V'''" and "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''Viacom'''}}" in its familiar Palatino-like font zoom back with a metallic steel trail effect. The trail effect finishes as the "'''V'''" turns solid and metallic and "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''Viacom'''}}" turns solid {{font color|gray|gray}}. The logo shines in a similar manner as the "Special Delivery" logo before flying downwards and offscreen.

The word "{{Font|Times New Roman|{{font color|gray|'''Viacom'''}}}}" forms in the same manner as in the opening variant. The logo shines once completed.

* Both variants appeared on a sales tape for ''The Lost Honeymooners''.  
* The closing variant has been seen on at least two ''Honeymooners'' specials, those being ''Jackie Gleason Presents: the Honeymooners Reunion'' and ''Season's Greetings From the Honeymooners.'' The former has not been seen since its one and only airing in 1985 while the latter was a special premiere for 3 lost Honeymooners episodes.


'''Editor's Note:''' The Scanimate-like 3D effects on the logo are admirable, even if the results can look unconvincing. It's also a precursor to the next logo, which is described below.
