Background
On September 26, 2006, CBS Corporation merged King World Productions, CBS Paramount International Television (spun-off as "CBS Studios International"), CBS Paramount Domestic Television, and CBS Home Entertainment to form "CBS Television Distribution". The merger wouldn't take effect on screen until late in the third quarter of 2007, when the King World and CBS Paramount Domestic Television logos were retired in favor of an entirely new logo for CBSTVD. However, Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy! began using the logo in October 2007. In 2021, the company was renamed to CBS Media Ventures.

(August 20, 2007-January 10, 2021)
 Nicknames:  "CBS Studio", "CGI Studio", "Studio of Staleness", "Studio of Annoyance", "Studio of Plastering", "The Amazing Heavenly Studio", "CBS Eyemark", "CBS Eyemark Studio", "The Sky Studio", "CBS, The Constipated Blues Company!"

 Logo:  In a studio, with blue lights all over, we see the words "CBS  TELEVISION DISTRIBUTION " with "CBS " in it's usual Didot font, with "TELEVISION " next to "CBS ", and "DISTRIBUTION " next to CBS and below "TELEVISION ", both are in a Helvetica font, floating above a reflective ground (which ripples at the beginning, like water) in front of a wall with clouds on it. The camera zooms out from the logo until it's over.

 Variants: 
 * An extended variant has everything in the standard version, except at the beginning, the camera zooms away from the CBS Eyemark, and "Television Distribution" zooms back in place, and then the camera moves away from the logo and stops behind the girders, with the "S" in "CBS" shining. The extended version without music appeared on the company's website before the company was rebranded as CBS Media Ventures.
 * A black & white version is used on B&W shows.
 * 2010-: Another variant starts off with the animation from the extended version, but is in warp speed.
 * On the short-lived The Arsenio Hall Show (2013), a copyright stamp for Eye Productions, Inc. appears below.
 * On the Blu-rays of the first two seasons of Star Trek: The Original Series (except for season one's "The Galileo Seven"), a copyright stamp reading "©1978 PARAMOUNT PICTURES CORPORATION" appears underneath the logo. Season 3 used the 1968 copyright reading "COPYRIGHT ©MCMLXIX (1969) PARAMOUNT PICTURES AND NORWAY CORPORATION. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED". When the series aired on H&I and Me-TV, season 1 had no copyright, while season 2 used the copyright from the 1967 Paramount logo, reading: "COPYRIGHT ©MCMLXVIII (1968) PARAMOUNT PICTURES AND NORWAY CORPORATION. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED, Paramount Pictures Corporation (in curved)". Season 3 kept the 1969 copyright. When aired, the copyright is absent (for seasons 1 and 2) if the Desilu logo has either the 1968-1969 or the 1978 copyright, and it will have either copyright if the Desilu logo does not have it.
 * Due to compressed credits, BBC America reruns of Star Trek: The Next Generation used an in-credit text reading "CBS TELEVISION DISTRIBUTION" instead of the main logo.
 * Sometimes, the crossfades into the 2007 logo, This can be seen at the end Entertainment Tonight and The Insider episodes.

 FX/SFX:  Beautiful graphics, period! The CGI set looks well done, reminiscent of the 1997 CBS Productions logo.

 Music/Sounds:  A beautiful 6 note string sounder, which sounds like a re-orchestration (and slight rearrangement) of the music in the CBS Paramount Network Television logo. There are four versions, all of which are composed by Gregory Smith.


 * In the short version of the logo, the jingle is faster paced.
 * Sometimes, the theme would have either five (minus the first note) or all six notes.
 * An extended version has a short brass/synth stinger leading into a longer version of the jingle (where the last two string notes have a slower tempo) with a longer brass/synth stinger at the end (as the last string note is held).
 * In the medium-length version of the logo, the first brass/synth stinger is omitted at the beginning and the second brass/synth stinger shortened at the end.

 Music/Sounds Variants: 
 * At the end of some videos on the Viacom CBS Global Distribution Group website, an extended version of the 2006 CBS Paramount Domestic Television jingle is heard during the extended version.
 * On the company's website prior to the CBS Media Ventures era, the extended version was silent.
 * Some series such as Judge Judy and Hot Bench, local syndication reruns of CSI: Miami, GMC's reruns of Early Edition (plastering the CBS Productions logo and removing the TriStar Television and Columbia TriStar Television logos), and the 2009 Blu-ray print of the Star Trek: The Animated Series episode "More Tribbles, More Troubles" (the 2016 BD print retains the 1969 Paramount Television logo) would have the finishing of the end-title theme over the logo.
 * On the 2013 version of The Arsenio Hall Show, the last 3 notes are used.
 * On Jeopardy!, most episodes with this logo have the 1998 KingWorld logo's thunderclap sound mixed into the start of the short version jingle. Early episodes with this logo have the 1998 KingWorld logo's music instead.
 * On early episodes of Wheel of Fortune with this logo, the 2006 KingWorld logo's music is heard.
 * On MeTV's print of the season four Hawaii Five-O (1968) episode "Wednesday, Ladies Free" (the DVD print was also assumed to have this, until it was discovered that the regular music played over the logo there) and the Next Level Blu-ray print of the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "Sins of the Father," the 1987 Paramount Television music is used.
 * A "high-tone" version of the short version jingle is used on Acorn Media's DVD release of the mini-series Washington: Behind Closed Doors.
 * On season 7 of Wings on DVD, local syndication reruns of CSI: NY and (at least a few, as of 2013) Encore Westerns airings of half-hour Gunsmoke episodes, the logo is silent. It was also silent on a 2013 episode of Dr. Phil, because it followed a memorial segment for a consultant for the show, who had recently passed away. This also happened on the September 11th episode of the 2013 version of The Arsenio Hall Show, due to a moment of silence held for those who died 12 years ago on that day (the logos before it were silent as well). Interestingly, on the seasons 1 and 2 Blu-rays of Star Trek: The Original Series, it's silent if the English mono track is selected.
 * On the Blu-ray print of the season 1 Star Trek: The Original Series episode "Errand of Mercy", if the Spanish or French audio track is selected, the fanfare is off-sync. This also happens on the DVD prints of the season 1 Mannix episodes "Make It Like It Never Happened" and "Warning: Live Blueberries."
 * On a Me-TV airing of an episode of Laverne and Shirley, you can faintly hear the 1975 Paramount "Blue Mountain" logo music in the background due to a sloppy plaster job.
 * On the same network, the show's final episode ("Here Today, Hair Tomorrow") features the 1982 Blue Mountain music, followed by the normal theme.
 * On Russian-dubbed versions of Early Edition, the Sony Pictures Television International theme is heard.
 * A low-tone version was used on an H&I rerun of one Star Trek: The Next Generation episode.
 * One episode of Gomer Pyle U.S.M.C. on Me-TV and a Season 10 episode of Judge Joe Brown had the CBS/Paramount Television music due to sloppy plastering.

 Availability:  Ultra common.
 * Appeared mostly on first-run syndicated programming from CBS Paramount Domestic Television, such as Judge Judy, Dr. Phil, Entertainment Tonight, The Insider, Swift Justice, and The Doctors, among others. It is also seen on ex-King World distributed shows like Wheel of Fortune, Jeopardy!, Rachael Ray, and Inside Edition, but not the final episodes of The Oprah Winfrey Show.
 * It can also be seen on local reruns of Frasier, Half & Half, One on One, and Maximum Exposure (coming after the Paramount Domestic Television logo of the time).
 * This logo was also seen on Everybody Loves Raymond in local syndication which plasters over the King World logo. However, it was followed by the 2006 King World logo on some TV Land airings.
 * It was also seen on more recent prints of the remastered version of Star Trek: The Original Series. The extended version was seen (in a silent version) on their website, and was also used on the final two seasons of Montel. The 1978 and 1969 copyrights can only be found on the Blu-ray release, while the 1967, 1968 and 1969 copyrights can only be found on TV airings.
 * This logo can also be seen together with its then-current network television counterpart's "Wallpaper" logo before it on syndicated reruns of the CSI franchise.
 * The short version should be found on seasons 4-12 of Hawaii Five-O (1968), along with most DVD releases of older CBS-owned programming from roughly the April 2008 release of season one of Mannix onward (and also on the Shout! Factory print of the When Things Were Rotten episode "The French Dis-connection," as seen on disc 5 of The Incredible Mel Brooks), an exception being the 2017 releases of season 3 of The Love Boat, which have the 1987 Paramount Television logo. Surprisingly, it also appears at the end of the 2016 Kino Lorber Studio Classics Blu-ray of Grandview U.S.A.
 * This also plasters the aforementioned 1987 logo on pre-September 2011 syndicated reruns and the Next Level Blu-Ray of Star Trek: The Next Generation. This logo can also be seen together with the 1998 King World logo before it on some reruns of Early Edition on Syfy.
 * This logo also appears on syndicated reruns of the first two seasons of Numb3rs and the first season of Everybody Hates Chris, in both cases with the 2002 Paramount Television logo preceding it.
 * This logo also appears Brooklyn Bridge on Decades, before the 1990 Paramount Television logo.
 * 2008 syndicated episodes of Numb3rs have the CBS Paramount Television logo preceding this logo.
 * 2009 episodes of Blue Bloods have the CBS Productions logo preceding this logo, but starting in 2010, the CBS Television Studios logo precedes it.
 * This logo also appears on Me-TV reruns of My Three Sons, before the 1971, 1976, or 1990 Viacom logos.

 Editor's Note:  Like Sony Pictures Television, this has become infamous due to excessive plastering of older logos (mostly Viacom, Paramount Television and Worldvision), but unlike SPT, this is at least one of the best logos of the 2000s.
