[[Paramount Pictures]] was involved in television as early as 1949 when it owned a television network called the "Paramount Television Network" and an early television division known as "[[Paramount Television Productions]]". The network presented and produced 17 programs in total until it and the production banner were dissolved in 1956. Paramount also had a majority stake in the DuMont Television Network and owned KTLA in Los Angeles and WBKB in Chicago (now WBBM-TV). Paramount Pictures' second attempt in the television industry began in 1959 as "[[Paramount Pictures Television]]" when they produced the television movie ''Destination Space'' for CBS. They also co-produced six unsold pilots with Tandem Productions, such as ''Henry T.'' and ''Meet Me At Danny's''. They also had a short-lived production banner called "[[Telemount-Mutual Productions|Telemount-Mutual]]". |

[[Desilu Productions]] was a production company founded in 1950 by then-husband-and-wife comedy duo, '''Desi''' Arnaz and '''Lu'''cille Ball (hence the name of the company), producing very successful TV shows and films between the 1950s and 1960s, notably pioneering the multi-camera sitcom format. In 1962, Arnaz sold his holdings of Desilu to Ball. In 1967, she sold Desilu to Gulf+Western Industries, which merged Desilu with Paramount Pictures. Desilu became the television arm of Paramount in July, renaming it to "'''Paramount Television'''" months later. Desilu Sales became "Paramount Television Sales", while Lucille Ball formed her then-new company "[[Lucille Ball Productions|Lucille Ball Productions, Inc.]]" and Desi Arnaz formed his own company named "Desi Arnaz Productions". Currently, all of the Desilu Productions television library is owned by Paramount Global through [[CBS Media Ventures]]. |

In 2004, [[Viacom Productions|Viacom]] merged Paramount Network Television and [[CBS Productions]] to form the "CBS Paramount Network Television Entertainment Group" at the same time it merged Paramount International Television and [[CBS Broadcast International]] to form "CBS Paramount International Television" (later the "ViacomCBS Global Distribution Group", now "[[Paramount Global Content Distribution]]"). On December 31, 2005, the Viacom/CBS split took effect and Viacom changed its name to the CBS Corporation at the same time it created a spin-off company that bears the Viacom name. On January 17, 2006, CBS Corporation merged the CBS Paramount Network Television Entertainment Group, CBS Paramount International Television, and Paramount Domestic Television into the CBS Paramount Television Group, but the on-air logo for PDT remained the same until Memorial Day, May 29, 2006, when the first [[CBS Paramount Television]] logo debuted. As for the network version, the PNT and CBS Productions logos were used before the CBS Paramount Network Television logo debuted on June 11. However, CBS Paramount Domestic Television was merged with CBS Paramount International Television, [[King World Productions]], and [[CBS Home Entertainment]] to form CBS Television Distribution (now "CBS Media Ventures") in September 2006, and CBS Paramount Network Television was renamed as "CBS Television Studios" (now "CBS Studios") in May 2009 after CBS lost its license to the Paramount name. On March 4, 2013, Paramount Pictures launched a new incarnation of [[Paramount Television Studios|Paramount Television]] (now "Paramount Television Studios"); both divisions are owned by [[Paramount Global]]. Paramount Television programs before and after the split are distributed on home media by [[Paramount Home Entertainment]]; the pre-2006 Paramount Television library is released by them under the label [[CBS Home Entertainment]] due to [[CBS Studios]]' ownership of the library. |

'''Visuals:''' On a {{color|blue}} background, there is a black mountain and the words "'''A Gulf+Western Company'''" in white. Suddenly, a white circle makes an iris-in effect behind the mountain. The "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''''Paramount'''''}}" name, which is written in its majestic script font and appears in black, pops in while 22 white stars appear around the border, starting in the middle and going downward. The word "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''''Paramount'''''}}" immediately moves upward to make room for "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''''Television'''''}}" below it, in the same typeface. Below the logo are two subtitles, both in white: "'''COPYRIGHT © MCMLXVIII BY PARAMOUNT PICTURES CORPORATION. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED'''" in a more standard typeface, and "{{Font|Times New Roman|''''Paramount Pictures Corporation''''}}" in the Paramount logo font. |

* By November 1982, a new version of the Paramount Television logo is released utilizing the standard template of the main logo with all 5 indentations intact. As a result, the word "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''''Television'''''}}" overlaps the tip. Some viewers may notice on this that the portion of the "Television" logo that touches the mountain peak is a brighter white; this is due to "chroma-keying," per Benjamin Edge on Club CBS Television Studios on Facebook. |

* In the later usage of this logo, Paramount used some videotape trickery on some of their prints with this logo. Instead of letting the film clip roll as usual, what they do is show the still of the logo with just "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''''Paramount'''''}}" showing. Then it quickly fades into the animation of "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''''Television'''''}}" sliding in from the right, which then reverts back into a still image (this time, of the completed animation). This can be seen on the first two seasons of ''MacGyver'', a few early episodes of ''Friday the 13th: The Series'', the short-lived revival ''The New Love, American Style'', the CBS sitcom ''The Cavanaughs'', and the TV movie ''The Jesse Owens Story''. |
