CBS Channel Rebrands
#11

(30-10-2023, 10:51 AM)Keith Wrote:  If I'm correct in thinking the CBS channels (or at least CBS) is owned by Paramount Global.  Given that Paramount also now own Channel 5, is there anything to stop these channels from coming under the Channel 5 branding?  For example renaming 'CBS Reality' as '5Reality'.

I guess though that at present the CBS channels in the UK and Channel 5 are currently two separate subsidiaries.  This makes such renaming unlikely, and explains there's a separate CBS Catchup app in addition to My5.  Long term though it would probably make some sense to fully merge the two.

The CBS branded UK/Europe channels are a joint venture between AMC Networks and Paramount, but AMC have operational control so they have little relation to the Paramount/C5 channels.

Looks like all the channels are introducing a box to their logos. But they are renaming the catchup service as watch free uk. They had so many more names to choose, and they chose that.

There was a channel with that name a few years back. Was owned by Sony and was branded in the style of True Entertainment and True Movies.

CSC Media / Chart Show Channels owned the 'True' brand before selling off their channels to Sony. Sony kept it for a while then rebranded to 'Sony Entertainment Television', 'Sony Crime Channel' etc..

We also get a look at the new symbols, using the outlined AMC box as a unifying device:

I wonder what would happen to the Polish CBS Europa next?
