Paramount+ Originals/Summary

Background
Paramount+ (pronounced Paramount Plus; formerly known as CBS All Access) is an American subscription video on-demand over-the-top streaming service owned and operated by Paramount Streaming, a subsidiary of Paramount Global. Paramount+ delivers movies, crime dramas, news, cartoons and comedies. It offers original content, content newly aired on CBS's broadcast properties, and content from the Paramount Global library.

1st Logo (Febraury 19, 2017-March 3, 2021)
Logo: On a black background, we see the CBS All Access logo with "ORIGINALS" under it in the same font as "ALL ACCESS". Behind it is half of the typical eye in a big size. Just then, a blue light ascends and makes the logo shine while the text slowly zooms in.

Variants:


 * At the end of most shows, the logo is shortened.
 * The black & white version of The Twilight Zone uses a B&W variant.

FX/SFX: The big eye, the shining logo and the ascending blue light.

Music/Sounds: A fading synth harmony and then, an orchestral version of CBS's 3-note jingle plays. Sometimes it is silent.

Music/Sounds Variants:


 * At the end of its shows, it's a shortened version of the last note from the jingle.
 * On the 2019 revival of The Twilight Zone, the jingle is high-pitched.

Availability: Extremely rare. Seen on at the beginning original shows from 2017 to 2020 such as The Good Fight, Star Trek: Discovery, and the 2019 revival of The Twilight Zone, while the closing variant was used on these shows from 2017 until the Paramount+ rebranding in 2021. In countries where Star Trek: Discovery is shown on Netflix, the opening variant is replaced by the Netflix logo, while the closing variant remains intact.

2nd Logo (January 23, 2020-March 3, 2021)
Logo: On a black background, we see the CBS eye shift to the right and then, "CBS", "ALL" and "ACCESS" from the same last logo pop up one by one while "ORIGINALS" fades in. Then a blue light shines behind the eye and disappears while the logo slowly zooms in.

Variants:


 * On Coyote, "ORIGINAL" is replaced by "EXCLUSIVE".
 * Like the 1st logo, a black & white variant is used on the B&W version of Season 2 of The Twilight Zone.

FX/SFX: The eye shifting to the right, the popping up text and the shining blue light.

Music/Sounds: A re-orchestration of the same jingle from the last logo.

Availability: Extinct, due to getting plastered by the Paramount+ logo. First seen on the beginning of Star Trek: Picard and later appeared at the beginning of other content on CBS All Access, while the end of the shows used the 1st logo. In non-US countries, where Picard is carried by Amazon Prime Video, this is replaced by the Amazon Originals logo.

(March 4, 2021-)
Logo: The logo uses the 2011 Paramount Pictures logo trimmed to the stars skimming the lake making ripples. As we fly nearer to the mountain, the stars, both incoming and encircling the mountain, become two-dimensional and white in colour whilst the background fades into blue. The mountain then transitions into a two-dimensional form with a cut circle wiping behind it, turning the stars into blue; as this is happening, the glossy text "Paramount+" zooms out and fades into white to take place beneath the mountain and the white text "ORIGINAL" zooms in from behind. A reflection of the "Paramount+" text fades in below.

Trivia:


 * Like the Paramount Players logo, this logo may remind some logo fans of the 1975-1986 Paramount Pictures logo, where the background fades to blue after a few seconds and the 3D mountain turns 2D.
 * Instead of 22 stars, there are 13 stars in this logo, and the 13 stars represent each letter in the name "Paramount Plus".

Variants:


 * A prototype version of the 12-second version of this logo exists; some of the stars animate differently in this version.
 * On the 12-second and 6-second variants of this logo:
 * For Paramount+ originals, the the white text "ORIGINAL", in Paramount's custom typeface, Peak Sans, zooms in from behind the "Paramount+" text.
 * For Paramount+ exclusives, the above variant is used, but "EXCLUSIVE" replaces "ORIGINAL".


 * A 6-second version of the logo also exists. It lacks the 2011 Paramount Pictures logo as the backdrop, leaving the background blue throughout. It is also sped up in the app variant, but it can be viewed in portrait and landscape views.
 * A 3-second sped-up version of the above variant exists, and can be seen when launching the Paramount+ app on mobile devices and TV platforms, like Amazon Fire TV.
 * Another 6-second custom variant exists on Nickelodeon-produced original series such as Kamp Koral: SpongeBob's Under Years, the 2021 Rugrats revival and Star Trek: Prodigy. This variant cuts much of the logo's formation to make way for the iconic Nickelodeon blimp (modeled after the Kids' Choice Awards trophy, with the 2009 logo on it) to zip from the right of the screen, flying around the logo before abruptly colliding with the mountain, causing the "+" part of the "Paramount+" text to twirl as the blimp lightly floats up.
 * On the preview of the aforementioned 2021 Rugrats revival and the Nickelodeon promo, a 3-second version of the logo exists, and it starts at the point where the stars are almost finished encircling the mountain. This version also appears on trailers for Paramount+ content and the end of the films (for example, Paranormal Activity: Next of Kin), as well as on The Offer and other future shows.
 * At the end of most shows, a 2-second version of the above variant exists. The stars don't animate and the "Paramount+" text is not in glossy 3D in this version.
 * On shows shot in 2.35:1/2.39:1 scope, like season 2 of Why Women Kill and season 5 of The Good Fight, the logo is shifted up so more of the reflection can be seen.

FX/SFX: Part of the 2011 Paramount Pictures logo, which is CGI itself, and more CGI mixed with 2D animation.

Music/Sounds: A shimmering theme with a 5 note string, finished with a stinger once "Paramount" flies in.

Availability: Current. Appears on original content for the service and plasters the CBS All Access originals logo on current prints of content from the service's former name, like Star Trek: Discovery (except on DVD and Blu-ray releases, which should still have the CBS All Access variant). The version without "ORIGINAL" was seen at the end of any shows.

Editor's Note: It's decent for a streaming service ident and a great way to bring the Paramount name to streaming.
