CBS Logo History

REQUEST BOX: • REQUEST BOX!
Yet another video that I am extremely proud of! Inspired by ‪@TR3XProductions1stChannel‬ and ‪@CP1973_Productions‬
Note: The CBS Television Network logo from 1952-68 is not included in this video, because that was used as a closing logo for CBS Productions, not a national ident. I might do a logo history on CBS Productions in the future.
CBS is an American commercial broadcast television and radio network. It is the flagship property of the CBS Entertainment Group division of Paramount Global. They were first introduced to radio in 1927 as the United Independent Broadcasters, and they changed their names over the years. From the 1930s, they were experimenting with television, where they opened an experimental station in New York City called W2XAB. This was relaunched as WCBS-TV on 1st July 1941, and more CBS television stations followed afterward. The earliest known idents from CBS date from 1947.
My next logo history will be on BBC One.
This video was released for educational purposes only.

It's really interesting how the modern jingle evolved over time. It was only very recently perfected. I never even noticed it until watching this video

[@JontyMaster]

I agree.

[@EB3Rplus]

I think they got their current three-note jingle near the turn of the millennium.

[@CowboysNo1Fan]

So did ABC's 4-note jingle. NBC did it first, so ABC and CBS execs took a whole nigh-century to get theirs Fox needs to join the party with the last 4 notes of the 20th Century Fox fanfare

[@highway2heaven91]

@@EB3Rplus They got it in 1992

[@mimsredjelly]

It honestly kind of fascinates me how the major terrestrial US networks have had so little change to their logos. Other than NBC it's just been small tweaks over time, and even NBC's logo has barely changed in 40 years

[@JontyMaster]

Yeah. NBC is still proud as a peacock. Speaking of NBC, I've been thinking of doing a logo history on that after I complete the BBC channels.

[@hayleywaalen2612]

Did you know that CBS aired a special based on Backyard Sports (A Humongous Entertainment game) in 2002? I hope CBS makes a Backyard Sports animated show based on the 1997 look and all the actors reprising their roles.

[@CP1973_Productions]

Wow, this was a pretty great logo history. CBS had an interesting selection of idents along with NBC and ABC. I’m kinda wondering if your going to do those 2. That was be kinda cool

[@JontyMaster]

Thanks, Connor! I agree with your comments, and I'm thinking of doing a logo history on NBC after BBC One, Two, Three and Four.

[@CP1973_Productions]

That would be pretty cool

[@c4rlinoficial]

[@theartoftimelapsemore424]

I gotta say 1992 - 1995 is the big one for me. But some of the modern idents are nice too. Oh yeah, the "welcome home" ones are amazing too, and "the address is CBS" ones are just as astounding.

[@Twin138956Productions2019]

CBS used to be one of the biggest television networks, but this logo history is amazing!

[@SpicyOSC]

Hi!!

[@bytearchives]

Used to?

[@seanvogt221]

It still is! They’ve been the top network for most of the 21st century. Both night and day. Hell they’re the only network with daytime games shows and multiple soap operas.

[@ashiePrime]
