(Three of the logos were actually repurposed CTHV or CTT logos that were introduced earlier, so I edited the descriptions to reflect this. Also made a few other additions.)

'''Visuals:''' Nearly the same as the 1993 [[Columbia TriStar Home Entertainment|Columbia TriStar Home Video]] logo, except the {{color|gold|golden}}-bordered box containing the clouds zooms out much earlier and "{{color|gold|'''HOME VIDEO'''}}" is replaced by "{{color|gold|'''INTERNATIONAL TELEVISION'''}}".
'''Visuals:''' The logo begins by cutting to a scene full of {{color|gold|golden}} clouds forming, tossing about on a {{color|blue}} cloudy background. Then, "{{color|gold|'''COLUMBIA TRISTAR'''}}" in {{color|gold|golden-yellow}} fades in and zooms out from above, and "{{color|gold|'''INTERNATIONAL TELEVISION'''}}", stacked and in the same color, shrinks out from below as the clouds, which are still tossing, zoom out as part of a {{color|gold|golden}}-bordered box on a {{color|blue}}-black gradient background. The box then splits apart to reveal the Torch Lady on the left (in the same style as before), and the Pegasus on the right (again, the same style as before), as the wording takes its position. The text shines for a few seconds after the logo is formed.

'''Audio:''' A slightly sped-up version of the 1993 CTHV theme.
'''Audio:''' A dramatic and contemporary synth theme with beating drums and cues of a piano. The last note of the theme is held out for the rest of the logo.
 
'''Audio Variant:''' A sped-up version exists.


'''Availability:''' Currently only known to have appeared on various ''Three Stooges'' shorts from Stooge TV on The Family Channel (now Freeform) from 1995-1998 and at the end of a sizzle reel of ''Headline Chasers''.

'''Visuals:''' Same as the 1997 Columbia TriStar Home Video logo, except "'''INTERNATIONAL TELEVISION'''" replaces "'''HOME VIDEO'''".
'''Visuals:''' On an ethereal {{color|blue}} background, filmstrips are seen crisscrossing the screen, with each frame in each filmstrip featuring the C-T box logo. A filmstrip then starts to pan towards the center of the screen, showing the boxes in each frame and the endings of their respective movie animations playing out within them. The words "Columbia Tristar" and "International Television" are shown in the middle sliding in slowly from the left and right of the screen respectively as the logo animates. In the middle is a black rounded code-out box with the white word "Columbia" inside, which then changes into "Tristar". As the final frame reaches the screen, the words disappear and the background turns white with several {{color|blue}} areas in each corner as the boxes (with the footage of the Torch Lady from the 1993 Columbia Pictures logo on the left and the footage of the Pegasus from the 1993 TriStar Pictures logo on the right) go into position. Then the words "'''COLUMBIA TRISTAR'''" and "'''INTERNATIONAL TELEVISION'''", with the latter being stacked, fade in above and below the boxes. The animation inside the boxes begins to stop as the logo ends.

'''Visuals:''' Same as the 1999 version of the 1995 Columbia TriStar Television logo, but "{{color|navy|'''INTERNATIONAL TELEVISION'''}}" is added below the boxes.
'''Visuals:''' The logo starts out against a forming cloud background. Then a square with the footage of the 1993 Columbia Torch Lady in it fades in, and slides to the left (with a zooming out effect as the box splits), revealing a box with the footage of the 1993 TriStar Pegasus, which slides to the right (the animation is slightly slowed down). The boxes have a thin white border. The words "{{color|navy|'''COLUMBIA TRISTAR'''}}" appear above the boxes and the staked words "{{color|navy|'''INTERNATIONAL TELEVISION'''}}" on the bottom with "{{color|navy|a SONY PICTURES ENTERTAINMENT company}}" below everything else.

'''Audio:''' The 1994 Columbia TriStar Television logo theme but played at a noticeable higher pitch (possibly because it aired on TV in a PAL or SECAM-format country, though the same pitch might also be seen in NTSC-format countries).

'''Audio Variant:''' In other cases, it used only the closing theme of the show or none, as in the case of season 1 episodes of ''Sue Thomas' F.B. Eye''.
