On March 4, 2013, former [[ViacomCBS|Viacom]] president and CEO Philippe Dauman announced the relaunch of Paramount Television, although its parent company [[Paramount Pictures]] had previously co-produced the [[Entertainment One (Canada)|Entertainment One]] series ''The Firm'' a year earlier. Some of the television series that were announced include ''School of Rock'', ''Galaxy Quest'', ''Minority Report'', a live ''Grease'' musical, an adaptation of the memoir ''Bettyville'', ''Smoke Gets in Your Eyes'', and a prequel to ''Shutter Island'' called ''Ashecliffe''. The revived Paramount Television didn't use an official on-screen logo until 2015. In January 2020, the division was rebranded as "Paramount Television Studios" in order to avoid confusion with the [[Paramount Network Originals|Paramount Network]] cable channel. |

*Starting in 2016 with the last 2 episodes of ''Vinyl'' (the still variant), the logo was updated considerably. A fully animated version of this logo didn't debut until ''Berlin Station'' premiered on EPIX. Compared to the other versions, the animation is smoother, the stars are at an angle at first but tilt to position, the text has better animation (and also shines, both the text and stars are a blueish-brownish gradient color, and the Viacom byline is changed from the print logo's byline to the exact same one from the movie logo.

The revived Paramount Television didn't use an official on-screen logo until 2015. In January 2020, the division was rebranded as "Paramount Television Studios" in order to avoid confusion with the Paramount Network cable channel.
Logo: On the credits of the program, we see the Paramount Pictures print logo with the Viacom byline in the "Wigga Wigga" font below and the text "In association with" above.
FX/SFX: None.
Music/Sounds: The closing theme of the program.
Availability: Ultra rare. Seen only on the short-lived series The Firm.
Editor's Note: None.
Nicknames: "2010s Mountain", "Mount Paramount"
Logo: On the background of the current Paramount logo, we see the mountain in the distance. Then, 22 stars encircle the mountain, the words "Paramount Television" zoom out to the top of the mountain one-by-one, and the Viacom or ViacomCBS byline fades in below the mountain.
