Paramount Network Originals

Logo description by Colorband Logo captures by ENunn, Pepsi9072 and ClosingLogosHD

Background
Paramount Network is a cable television network launched on January 18, 2018 by ViacomCBS Inc. through the ViacomCBS Domestic Media Networks (VCDMN) division (formerly the "Viacom Media Networks" (VMN) division) replacing the now-extinct Spike network.

1st Logo (January 18, 2018-2020)
Nicknames: "The Show's ENDed", "The Reel Deal"

Logo: We see several things in quick succession: The word "END" in black, upside down and on a gray gradient background; the stars from the Paramount Network logo in gray on a black background; and the Paramountain from the Paramount Network logo in black on a gray gradient background. We then cut to a slide with the Paramount Network logo in gray on black, saying:

THIS HAS BEEN A (Paramount Network logo) ORIGINAL PRODUCTION

Below it are "PARAMOUNTNETWORK.COM", "PARAMOUNT NETWORK IS A VIACOM COMPANY", and the 2006-2019 Viacom logo.

Variant: Sometimes, only the Paramount Network logo is seen.

FX/SFX: The quick succession of images. Done by Gretel.

Music/Sounds: A synthesized whoosh that fades out.

Music/Sounds Variant: On 68 Whiskey, the Paramount Television Studios theme is used.

Availability: Premiered on Lip Sync Battle Live: A Michael Jackson Celebration and can be seen on on-demand copies of Cops, plastering the Spike logo. It is also seen other Paramount Network programming from 2018 to 2020.

Editor's Note: It's quite a boring logo, though the next logo is the opposite of that. Even though Viacom and CBS merged to form ViacomCBS in 2019, the byline was not updated.

2nd Logo (2020-)
Nicknames: "3D to 2D Mountain/Stars"

Logo: On a dark gray background, we see the Paramountain from the previous logo, but this time it has a 3D effect. 3D stars are seen zooming out to encircle the mountain. As this happens, the stars and mountain turn 2D. The words "Paramount Network" zoom out to take their place under the mountain, a flash of light is seen, then "ORIGINAL" zooms in afterwards.

Variant: On some shows, the background is black.

FX/SFX: The stars moving and zooming out to encircle the mountain, then the flash and Paramount Network text zooming out. Done by Michael Sutton-Long for Gretel.

Music/Sounds: The 4-note Paramount Network brand theme, played on strings. Whoosh sounds are heard throughout.

Availability: Current. Premiered on episode 10 of season 7 of Bar Rescue, and is seen at the end of Paramount Network programming since 2020.

Editor’s Note: The moving CGI stars and the Paramountain turning 2D when the animation completes, along with the 4-note mnemonic make this logo a winner.
