CBS Broadcast International/Summary

 Background : CBS Broadcast International was the second syndication company created by CBS, Inc. Previously, the CBS library was distributed by Viacom Enterprises, a spun-off company from CBS due to fin-syn rules, which only applied in the United States and territories. On August 10, 2004, Viacom, Inc. merged CBS Broadcast International with Paramount International Television to form CBS Paramount International Television (now "CBS Studios International").

1st Logo
(1984-1987)

 Logo : On a light blue background, the cerulean text "CBS " in ITC Avant Garde Bold Italic, flies in from the left. When this happens, it leaves a trail behind, which the second one is to be resemble a globe. While the text flies in, we see some black stripes from the top and bottom. Then the white text, "A CBS BROADCAST INTERNATIONAL PRESENTATION" in same font as "CBS " but in a lighter weight fades-in.

 Variant : A grayscaled version of the logo was used on Nick at Nite airings of The Dick Van Dyke Show.

 FX/SFX: : Computer graphics.

 Music/Sounds : A 11-note synth tune. In some cases, the ending theme finishes over it.

 Availability : Very rare. Seen on some TV movies from the era, like Who is Julia? and Under the Influence. Also seen on some episodes of The (New) Twilight Zone on Chiller, the first season of Rescue 911, the first season of Bob Vila's Home Again, and The Dick Van Dyke Show on Nick at Nite.

2nd Logo
(1987-1995)

 Logo : On a dark blue (or purple) background, we see a globe being formed by longitudinal and latitudinal lines, dropping from the top. As it is done forming, it then shines and pans out, as the globe becomes 3D, and we pan out to a sky blue background, with the globe panning out to the CBS Eye logo. The letters "CBS " in the CBS Didot font (which is CBS' proprietary font) appear next to the CBS Eye. Under all that is "CBS BROADCAST INTERNATIONAL " set in Helvetica Italic.

 Trivia : The "Eyemark Globe" logo has some throwback elements of the 1965 CBS Films logo.

 Variants :
 * There is a variation which has "A PRODUCTION OF " or "IN ASSOCIATION WITH " above the logo.
 * Sometimes, it is still.
 * A filmed variant was seen on AMC airings of My Fair Lady during the era.

 FX/SFX:  Computer Graphics.

 Music/Sounds:  An inducing synth theme with a low synth note as the latitudinal and longitudinal lines are formed, then a higher synth note as the logo pans out, then another high synth note. On some shows, the closing theme was used.

Music/Sounds Variants: '''
 * Sometimes, pre-1983 CBS TV movies on 1990s syndication using 1984 theme playing.
 * A silent version exists.
 * A high-toned version exists, usually for PAL prints.
 * A stereo mix version exists, but is sometimes used during the logo's later years.

 Availability:  Rare. Was seen on TV movies from the era. Also appeared on episodes of Rescue 911, starting with the second season, and the pilot episode of Walker, Texas Ranger on USA Network, Cloo, and WGN America. It also appeared on the final season of The (New) Twilight Zone on Syfy and Chiller, as well as on through Nineties international printings (deleting the Viacom logos from the era).

3rd Logo
(April 30, 1995-2007)

 Logo:  Same as the shortened version of the CBS Enterprises logo, but with "Broadcast International " instead.

 Variants :
 * There is a rather cheaply-done widescreen version where the picture is stretched from 4:3 to 16:9, with a lot of blocky artifacts in the background.
 * A more professionally-done widescreen version also exists.
 * A shortened version exists. In this version, after "Broadcast International" fades in, the screen immediately fades to black.
 * Another shortened version exists. It starts off when the eye logo is in place and "CBS" appears. This can be found on Justice Network airings on Rescue 911.

 FX/SFX : CGI.

 Music/Sounds : The last part of the 1995 CBS Video theme, beginning with the piano glissando, with the final three orchestral hits marking the letter-by-letter appearance of "CBS". An extended version of this also appeared in the current CBS Home Entertainment logo.

 Music/Sounds Variants :
 * On a French print of the TV movie The Wild Wild West Revisited, the 1987 theme plays over the logo due to a plaster error.
 * On the 2012 DVD of Quarterback Princess, and possibly others, the music is in low tone.
 * PAX TV/i: Independent Television airings of Early Edition used the channels' respective generic themes.
 * A high-toned version exists. This can be mostly found on PAL releases.
 * On a French print of The (New) Twilight Zone season 2 episode "Song of the Younger World/"The Girl I Married", this logo has music from the 1st logo due to a poor plaster job.
 * On BBC One UK airings of Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas (plastering over the closing credits scrolling up and the closing DreamWorks logo), the movie's closing theme plays over it, with the music fades out to silence when the logo fades out to black.

 Availability: 
 * Seen on TV movies from the era.
 * Can also be seen sometimes on reruns of Everybody Loves Raymond on TBS and shows across the globe co-produced by CBS Productions, but recent airings now have the CBS Television Distribution logo due to the channel now using HD prints. However, it can still be seen on most current international reruns, like on Channel 4 in the UK. It was also intact when the show used to be on Netflix a few years ago..
 * It was also seen on repeats of Early Edition on i (now "Ion Television"). Gospel Music Channel kept this logo intact on reruns of Judging Amy. GMC, however, compresses their own promos and credits at the top, while keeping the end credits of some of their series at the end.
 * This was also seen on 1990s international prints of earlier Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles episodes and international prints of The King of Queens, among others. It can also be seen on at least one episode of Walker, Texas Ranger on Crackle. Surprisingly, Crackle prints of the short-lived CBS series Ladies Man have this at the end, sandwiched between the Columbia TriStar Television and Sony Pictures Television logos. This is most likely due to the fact that they used international masters (CBS own the show internationally while SPT has US rights).
 * This also appears at the end of most films in the 1939 Sherlock Holmes film series on TCM UK.
 * It also makes a surprise appearance at the end of the 2011 Danish Blu-ray of Target from Soul Media.
