* Only a split second of the logo (only the first "ping" of the logo's soundtrack playing over a red screen) was shown on a 2012 Australian TV airing of ''Hogan's Heroes'', due to being plastered by the 8th logo.
'''FX/SFX:''' Likely cel animation.
'''FX/SFX:''' The three portions of "'''{{small|V}}i{{small|ACOM}}'''" sliding to the center from the left one by one, and the zoom out and appearances of "'''{{small|A}}'''" and "'''p{{small|RESENTAT}}i{{small|ON}}'''".
'''Music/Sounds:''' 4 synthesized ascending pinball-like chimes. The first 3 play as each part of "'''{{small|V}}i{{small|ACOM}}'''" slides in, and the last, which plays over the zoom-out, has a zap-like "WHOOSH" that blends in with the last bell, combined with a synth chord and gurgling/telephone-like sounds.

'''NicknamesNickname:''' "V of Doom", "Big V", "Zooming V", "Viacom V", "That V"
'''Logo:''' On a {{Font color|deepskyblue|sky blue}} (or {{font color|mediumpurple|lavender}}) background, the text "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''A Viacom Presentation'''}}" in a Palatino-like typeface zooms in from the center of the screen at a very fast pace, then stops abruptly (on the filmed variant) when it gets near to the screen. Then, a fancy-cut, {{Font color|navy|navy blue}} "{{Font color|navy|'''V'''}}" (a downward trapezoid with a curved line in the near center) zooms in from the center and moves gradually closer and closer to the screen. When it gets to the point where the "'''V'''" takes up nearly the entire screen, the screen suddenly cuts to black or fades to black (depending on the version of the logo), with the "'''V'''" presumably still moving ever closer.
'''FX/SFX:''' Depending on the version:
* '''Filmed and Videotaped Variants:''' The text zooming in from screen center and the "V" logo zooming in. The former used cel animation, while the latter uses Scanimation or another form of early computer graphics.
* '''Network Variants:''' Early computer animation.
* '''Network Variants:''' Usually the logo zooming in from the screen center. Sometimes, it's the "V" and the "Viacom" text sliding in from the opposite sides. For the mirrored "V" logo, the logo flipping in. For the still logo, obviously none.
'''Music/Sounds:''' Here are the main music variants used on this logo:
{{YouTube|id=fDSWEDiA33o|id2=8mE-D9c3X50}}
'''Nicknames:''' "Flashing V", "V of Rainbow", "Viacom V II"
'''Logo:'''
* '''Closing:''' At the end of the reel, we see the "{{Font color|deepskyblue|'''V'''}}" with the word "{{Font|Times New Roman|{{Font color|deepskyblue|'''Viacom'''}}}}" in {{Font color|deepskyblue|blue}} and the word "{{Font|Times New Roman|{{font color|deepskyblue|from}}}}" above the "{{Font color|deepskyblue|'''V'''}}", and they all zoom in towards the viewer.
'''FX/SFX:''' Excellent use of Scanimate.
'''FX/SFX:''' The rotating of the "'''V'''" to the center, the colors lining out of the logo, the flash of "{{Font|Times New Roman|{{Font color|deepskyblue|presents}}}}" and the "'''V'''", the zoom-in to the corner of the "'''V'''" in sync with the opening theme. The quick zoom-in to the center with a flash at the end of the reel.
'''Music/Sounds:''' The opening and closing themes of the syndie promo or none.

'''Nicknames:''' "Special Delivery", "The Viacom Emblem", "Viacom V III", "Golden V"
'''Logo:''' We start off in outer space. The words "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''''Special'''''}}" and "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''''Delivery'''''}}" streak through the sun in the background, leaving a {{font color|red|r}}{{font color|orange|a}}{{font color|#FFD900|i}}{{font color|limegreen|n}}{{font color|blue|b}}{{font color|magenta|o}}{{font color|purple|w}} trail. Then on a {{font color|blue|blue}}/black gradient background, the two words fly towards a stylized {{Font color|gold|gold}} ring with wings and the familiar "'''V'''" from the 2nd logo on its base. "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''''From'' Viacom'''}}" with "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''Viacom'''}}" in a bigger font, also fly towards the ring, settling inside it. The logo then constantly shines, occasionally flashing. At the end, a firework flash effect emerges from the logo.
* A extended version also exists, where "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''''From'' Viacom'''}}" streaks in after "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''''Special'''''}}" and "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''''Delivery'''''}}", followed by the border being formed, rotating and dropping down as a rainbow-trailing outline, before retracting and fading to {{Font color|gold|gold}}, flashing once. The rest of the logo plays out normally.
'''FX/SFX:''' Scanimation, once again.
'''FX/SFX:''' The words streaking leaving a rainbow trail, and the firework flash, done in Scanimation.
'''Music/Sounds:''' After a drum roll at the start, a majestic 13-note fanfare plays, with the last note held out. The last half plays for the short version, while it's extended for the long version.

'''Nicknames:''' "V in Space" (opening only), "V in the Big City" (closing only), "City Skyline V" (closing only), "Early V of Steel", "Silver Viacom V"
'''Logo:'''
* '''Opening:''' Against a space background with twinkling stars, a metallic steel outline of the Viacom "'''V'''" and "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''Viacom'''}}" in its familiar Palatino-like font zoom back with a metallic steel trail effect. The trail effect finishes as the "'''V'''" turns solid and metallic and "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''Viacom'''}}" turns solid {{font color|gray|gray}}. The logo shines in a similar manner as the "Special Delivery" logo before flying downwards and offscreen.
'''Variant:''' An extended version of the closing variant exists on the sales tape for ''The Lost Honeymooners'', where the logo shines multiple times after completing.
'''FX/SFX:''' Scanimate animation.
'''FX/SFX:''' For the opening variant, the trailing text, and the shining. For the closing variant, the trailing text, the "'''V'''" forming, and the shining.
'''Music/Sounds:''' The closing theme of the show. Promotional reels featured a voice over saying "Because Viacom (pronounced as "Vee-a-Com") presents, for the very first time in syndication...".

'''Nickname:''' "V of Steel"
'''Nicknames:''' "V of Steel", "Rotating Silver V", "Shining Silver V", "Viacom V VI", "Silver Viacom V II"
'''Logo:''' We start out with a screen that's divided in two, with a black/{{font color|purple|purple}} gradient on top and {{font color|silver|silver}} on the bottom, with a bright light flare shining between. The {{font color|silver|silver}} part then rotates counter-clockwise (a la [[20th Century Fox Home Entertainment#CBS/Fox Video|CBS/Fox Video]]), revealing it is a steel version of the "{{font color|silver|'''V'''}}" logo as the background changes to a black/{{font color|blue|blue}}/{{font color|purple|purple}} gradient. The word "{{Font|Times New Roman|{{font color|silver|'''Viacom'''}}}}" flies in from the upper-left of the screen and places itself under the "{{font color|silver|'''V'''}}", which shines.
* On some episodes of 90s TBS Superstation airings of ''Perry Mason'', the logo is colored {{font color|green|green}}.
'''FX/SFX:''' CGI animation.
'''FX/SFX:''' The rotating "'''V'''", the "'''V'''" shining and the light flare behind the "'''V'''" illuminating in the background.
'''Music/Sounds:''' Pindrop-like synth notes, followed by a descending synth chord. The music shares a similar musical key as the "V of Doom".

'''Nicknames:''' "Wigga-Wigga", "\/|/\CO/\/\", "Zig-Zags of Steel", "Silver Zig-Zags"
'''Logo:''' On a shaded {{font color|blue|blue}} background, a {{font color|silver|silver}} "{{font color|silver|'''V'''}}" flies in from the bottom left and moves backwards. As it does so, a zig-zag line comes out of it to form the other letters in the word "{{font color|silver|'''VIACOM'''}}" (with the "{{font color|silver|'''V'''}} shining throughout), with the "{{font color|silver|'''A'''}}" and "{{font color|silver|'''M'''}}" still having the form of zig-zags. The completed logo, which kind of looks like "{{font color|silver|\/'''I'''/\'''CO'''/\/\}}", shines.
* On the 1998 TV movie ''Inferno'' and the 1999 TV movie ''The Apartment Complex'', the Productions variant has the text "{{Font|Times New Roman|''Viacom Productions, Inc. Exclusive Distributor''}}" in two lines below.
'''FX/SFX:''' The CGI coiled line forming "'''VIACOM'''", and the logo shininganimation.
'''Music/Sounds:''' Again, there have been several musical variations accompanied with a voice-over by Don LaFontaine saying "Viacom" near the end:

'''Nicknames:''' "\/|/\CO/\/\ II", "Wigga-Wigga II", "VIACOM 2000", "Robocom", "ViaBot"
'''Logo:''' On a smoky {{font color|blue|blue}} background, we see the letters of "{{font color|royalblue|'''VIACOM'''}}" in a glass font zooming out, being stacked in front of each other, then spreading out. The background is full of the letters of the word along with a {{font color|blue|blue}} smoke effect that slowly clears out. After "{{font color|royalblue|'''VIACOM'''}}" settles, the text "{{font color|royalblue|'''PRODUCTIONS'''}}" in Futura Extra Bold moves up ala the "Float In" animation of Microsoft PowerPoint, with a line and the byline "{{font color|royalblue|{{Font|Times New Roman|'''''a Paramount company'''''}}}}" (in the [[Paramount Pictures]] logo's font) fading in below it.
'''Variants:'''
* A still version of this logo exists (a la the 1985 "V of Happiness" logo).
* In 2002, the words were made bolder, and the letters at the start are brighter.
* Sometimes on the 2002 version, "in association with" spreads out above.
* A filmed version appears on some TV movies.
