'''Music/Sounds''': A re-orchestrated version of the last six notes to Paramount Pictures' 1987 theatrical fanfare, which is a re-arrangement of Elsie Janis/Jack King's ''Paramount on Parade'' by Jerry Goldsmith, first heard on trailers for Paramount Pictures since 1976. It may remind some viewers of the ''Star Wars'' theme | '''Music/Sounds''': A re-orchestrated version of the last six notes to Paramount Pictures' 1987 theatrical fanfare, which is a re-arrangement of Elsie Janis/Jack King's ''Paramount on Parade'' by Jerry Goldsmith, first heard on trailers for Paramount Pictures since 1976. It may remind some viewers of the ''Star Wars'' theme (hence the nickname "Star Wars Mountain"). There are two arrangements of the theme. Many of these logos are plastered onto old shows (mostly on TV Land airings, as well as TV movies) with the logo being silent. | ||
'''Pre-1987 Paramount Television Music/Sounds Variants''': As a result of poor attempts at plastering, each variant of the logo was spotted with the following themes from the 4th, 5th, and 7th logos: | '''Pre-1987 Paramount Television Music/Sounds Variants''': As a result of poor attempts at plastering, each variant of the logo was spotted with the following themes from the 4th, 5th, and 7th logos: | ||

*The Gulf+Western variation was once found on later ''Family Ties'' episodes (seen intact on recent airings such as those on Antenna TV), 1987-1989 ''Cheers'' episodes in syndication, and ''Friday the 13th: The Series'' on Chiller and certain episodes on Syfy. On Netflix, the Gulf+Western version has also turned up on the last 2 seasons of ''Family Ties'' (plastered on DVD), as well as seasons 3-4 and the first 4 season 5 episodes of ''MacGyver''. The short-lived 1988-89 game show ''Wipeout'' (with Peter Tomarken) had this as well, and it was retained when the USA Network reran from 1989 to 1991 (episodes can be found on YouTube). This variation usually gets plastered with the Viacom variation. | *The Gulf+Western variation was once found on later ''Family Ties'' episodes (seen intact on recent airings such as those on Antenna TV), 1987-1989 ''Cheers'' episodes in syndication, and ''Friday the 13th: The Series'' on Chiller and certain episodes on Syfy.
