Background: On May 15, 2009, three years after CBS Paramount Domestic Television, CBS Paramount International Television and King World Productions became CBS Television Distribution, the post-2006 CBS Corporation, formerly the "old" Viacom, ended its three-year licensing rights to the Paramount name and logo from the post-2006 Viacom, which owns Paramount Pictures and MTV. As a result, the CBS Paramount Television group and its Network Television arm were rebranded as CBS Television Studios. In addition, the then-revived CBS Paramount International Television was renamed CBS Studios International, and the revived CBS Productions was reincorporated as its in-name-only unit. For the first time on network television since 1966, the "Paramountain"
or anything resembling Paramount's symbol is nowhere to be seen. New and returning television shows will have a copyright for CBS Studios, Inc. with exceptions of the new seasons of the CSI franchise, which will have a copyright for CBS Broadcasting, Inc.

Nicknames: "The Zooming Eye at Warp Speed", "The Racing Eye"

Logo
: On a turquoise background, we see the CBS eye logo zooming in from the right to the left
at warp speed. Then the "CBS" name with the words "Television Studios" below and the CBS eye logo next to the text zoom out to its distant position and reflections fade in below

Variant:
This logo would appear on a blue background instead of a turquoise background

FX/SFX: The CBS eye zooming at warp speed.

Music/Sounds
: A 6-note horn/orchestral sounder with a timpani roll and suspended cymbal roll on the second-to-last note and the ringing of a bell at the end. However, some shows, mainly the new seasons of the CSI franchise would have the end theme tunes accompany this logo.

Music/Sound Variants: On the pilot episode of the newly-revived-and-rebooted Melrose Place, we hear the 2008 CBS Productions sounder that was normally heard on The Cleaner.

Availability: Debuted on the series premiere of the newly-revived-and-rebooted Melrose Place and The Vampire Diaries on the CW Television Network as well as other new shows like NCIS: Los Angeles and new season of returning shows like the original NCIS, the CSI franchise and all others on the CBS television network. It also debuted on the season premiere Medium, once aired for four years on NBC and currently airing on CBS.

Scare Factor: None.
