ViacomCBS renames itself as it plays catch-up with Paramount+, its streaming service.

Shares declined about 6 percent in after-hours trading despite news that the company’s streaming portfolio had reached about 56 million subscribers.

paramount a viacom company feature presentation

By Brooks Barnes

  • Feb. 15, 2022

On Tuesday, Shari Redstone staged her second hourslong investor presentation in two years. Both events were designed for the same purpose — to reposition her old-line media company, ViacomCBS, as a streaming giant in the making, one capable of competing head-on with Netflix, HBO Max, Disney+ and Amazon Prime Video, despite a late start.

This time, there was less snickering.

“Some of you thought we were on an impossible mission,” Robert M. Bakish, the chief executive of ViacomCBS, said during the presentation on Tuesday. “It’s not only possible. It’s happening.”

To highlight the importance of its fast-growing Paramount+ streaming service, Ms. Redstone, the company’s chair, announced that ViacomCBS would rename itself Paramount Global.

Paramount+ had 32.8 million subscribers worldwide at the end of its most recent quarter, up from fewer than 19 million a year earlier. In the three months that ended on Dec. 31, Paramount+ added 7.3 million customers, the result of offerings like “1883,” the prequel to “Yellowstone”; “Clifford the Big Red Dog”; and National Football League games. (A year earlier, ViacomCBS was adding about a million streaming subscribers a quarter.)

The company’s streaming portfolio (Paramount+ and niche services from Showtime, BET and Nickelodeon) now has about 56 million subscribers. Mr. Bakish said that number would grow to 100 million by 2024, more than the roughly 70 million the company had previously forecast. The company also raised its 2024 streaming revenue goal to $9 billion, from $6 billion.

Streaming brought in about $4.2 billion last year, including advertising sales from the free Pluto TV service.

Paramount+ unveiled a barrage of additional programming to fuel continued growth. The expanded lineup will include fresh content from franchises including “Yellowstone,” “Beavis and Butt-Head,” “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles,” “Real World,” “Dora the Explorer,” “NCIS,” “SpongeBob SquarePants,” “Transformers” and “South Park.” Paramount+ will be the exclusive first stop after theatrical distribution for all Paramount Pictures movies beginning in 2024. (Many previously went to Epix, a premium cable channel.)

Starting this summer in the United States, Paramount+ subscribers will be able to upgrade to receive Showtime content, including the new hit drama “Yellowjackets” and older series like “Billions.”

ViacomCBS shares declined about 6 percent in after-hours trading. Richard Greenfield, a founder of the research firm LightShed Partners, cited investor concern about Mr. Bakish’s “meaningfully stepping up spending” on content.

It may be growing quickly, but Paramount+ continues to lag behind competitors like Disney+, which added 11.8 million subscribers worldwide in its most recent quarter to reach 129.8 million. Netflix has about 222 million.

Paramount Home Media Distribution

Paramount Home Video (1976)

  • This logo appeared primarily on Betamax releases. This should appear on a few VHS releases from 1979 and 1980 including the first two Godfather films, Saturday Night Fever , Grease , Heaven Can Wait , True Grit , Goin' South , Play It Again Sam , The Bad News Bears (1976 version) , Prophecy and Catch 22 .
  • Among the last releases to use this logo were five volumes of Star Trek episodes as part of the "Television Classics" series on VHS and Betamax in Summer 1980 (Those releases are out of print, having been replaced in 1985 by Paramount's single episodes releases, and are hard to find). Other final releases with this logo were tapes of Escape from Alcatraz , North Dallas Forty , and Emmanuelle: The Joys of a Woman .
  • This surprisingly appears on a late 1983 pressing of The Odd Couple (usually, releases printed around that time started with the "Acid Trip" warning screen, followed by the Paramount Pictures logo).

Paramount Home Video (1979)

  • Seen on VHS/Beta releases of the time, which are not that easy to find, especially since the logo was usually taken off of post-1981 prints. However, since this was on a decent variety of movies, it may help a little.
  • Among the releases are Bon Voyage, Charlie Brown (and Don't Come Back!!) , Death Wish , Escape from Alcatraz , Breaking Glass , Friday the 13th , Star Trek: The Motion Picture , Airplane! , Charlotte's Web , Little Darlings , Race for Your Life, Charlie Brown! , Barbarella , Starting Over , American Gigolo , Urban Cowboy and Shogun.
  • Some, if very little, post-1981 prints surprisingly keep this logo intact.
  • Also seen on certain Hi-Fi re-releases of Paramount's early releases (such as Downhill Racer and Death Wish ) from 1984, and the original Hi-Fi VHS release of True Grit (1969 version).
  • Don't expect this logo on LaserDisc releases, as it was replaced with the Laservision logo.

Paramount Video (1982)

  • A black-and-white variant exi sts.
  • A rare, slightly longer variant exists, which starts with a still shot of the blue Paramount print logo. After a little over a second, the music starts and the logo animates as normal.
  • At the end of an April 1998 Sci-Fi Channel (now Syfy) airing of The Devonsville Terror , the animation is slowed down but plays as normal until all there is is " Paramount " and the mountain, whe n the logo freezes in place and the rest of the music is heard. It's unknown if this was used on a ny home media releases of the film, or any others.
  • Most Paramount films used the logo used on the film, but most television series (such as Star Trek , with the exception of the 1984 Television Classics Laserdisc release of the two-parter "The Menagerie", which uses no logo), comedy specials (such as Paramount Comedy Theater: Volume 1 ), and licensed material (such as Hey There, It's Yogi Bear! and The Adventures of the American Rabbit ) have this logo.
  • It was also on most prints of the 1982 VHS release of Mr. Magoo's Christmas Carol (the earliest prints, from around 1982 to early 1983, are confirmed to not have this), and a 1990 reprint of it retained the logo.
  • It is also on the 1992 release of A Dog of Flanders (along with the warning that preceded it), also likely a reprint itself.
  • The black and white version can be found on a VHS release of The Untouchables pilot "Scarface Mob" and Bob Dylan: Don't Look Back .
  • This was also surprisingly seen on the early 1990s re-release of Strong Kids, Safe Kids , after the 5th logo.
  • Other releases that have this include Teen Wolf and Call to Glory .
  • This logo, as well as the multi-colored copyright warning, appear on the 1991 VHS print of Toho Entertainment's The Wizard Of Oz (1982).
  • Paramount Video would produce 1984 to 1986 episodes of Brothers , a sitcom which aired on Showtime from 1984 to 1989. This would appear on 1984 to 1986 episodes, while 1987 to 1989 episodes would be produced by Paramount Television.

Paramount Home Video - 75th Anniversary

  • April 1987-1989: " A Gulf + Western Company ". 1987 releases used the 75th Anniversary variant, while 1988-89 releases used the standard version.
  • 1989-1995: " A Paramount Communications Company " with a line above the byline fades in. 1989-90 releases had the byline and line above it in gold , while 1990-95 releases had them in white.
  • 1995-February 4, 2003: "A VIACOM COMPANY" (in the 1990 \/|/\CO/\/\ "Wigga Wigga" font) with a line above the byline fades in, again, in white.
  • This was used as a de-facto home video logo, and can be seen on every VHS and Laserdisc release from that period -- this also includes television series (such as the original Star Trek ), comedy specials, and third-party acquisitions like Teen Wolf Too and The Garbage Pail Kids Movie . Combine this with its 16-year span, and this may be the most common home video logo period--maybe even more so than any of Disney's logos, or even the next logo!
  • Look for either the 75th Anniversary print logo, or the standard Gulf+Western print logo (with no mention of "HOME VIDEO") on the packaging and labels.
  • The 75th Anniversary logo plasters over the "Blue Mountain" logo on the 1987 home video releases of Ferris Bueller's Day Off , Crocodile Dundee , Children of a Lesser God, Top Gun , and Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home .
  • Meanwhile, the standard Gulf+Western version plasters over the 75th Anniversary logo on the 1988 releases of Beverly Hills Cop II , The Untouchables , Back to the Beach , Fatal Attraction , and Planes, Trains, & Automobiles .
  • International VHS release of these films (all released by CIC Video, with the exception of Crocodile Dundee ) will likely have the film's original logo intact.
  • This was also used on all 1994-2004 Peanuts VHS releases and all Nickelodeon VHS releases from 1996 to 2003. The 75th Anniversary variant was also used on a Showtime broadcast of Hamburger Hill from <a href=" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-FIdvPN3G0A " target="_self">March 1991</a>.
  • It was also seen on the direct-to-video films The Little Bear Movie and Blue's Big Musical Movie .
  • Even though this logo was officially discontinued in 2003, this would continue to make unexpected appearances on demo tapes from as late as 2007. Examples include the demo VHS releases of Jakers: Piggly Gets Into Trouble & The Wonder Pets: Save The Wonder Pets , released in 2006 and 2007 respectively.
  • Occasionally, this will appear before the opening previews on certain tapes. One example of this is the Paramount reissue of Rugrats: A Baby's Gotta Do What a Baby's Gotta Do and some other Nickelodeon tapes from 1996.
  • It was preserved on Echo Bridge Home Entertainment 's DVD release of Puppet Master 5 and the Mexican DVD of Demonic Toys , each before the Full Moon logo, most likely due to older VHS masters being used.

Paramount Home Video (1989)

  • May 17-October 16, 1989: " A Gulf + Western Company " (used for only six months that year)
  • November 9, 1989-May 16, 1995: " A Paramount Communications Company " (the "Feature Presentation" versions have a different font for the Paramount Communications byline: sans serif)
  • June 13, 1995- January 5, 2007 : "A VIACOM COMPANY" (in the same font as the 1990 Viacom logo)
  • There was a special bumper used for trailers from 1989 to 1998 or 1999, with the words " COMING ATTRACTIONS " over the heliotrope gradient background, which cuts off after the zoom in.
  • On the 1989 re-releases of Sunset Boulevard on VHS (reissued from the 1988 printing) and The Courageous Dr. Christain on Laserdisc (reissued from the 1987 printing), the logo and warning screen is in black and white.
  • There is a very rare long version of the Gulf+Western logo where once we fade in, the logo doesn't actually start for a few seconds. Also, once the " FEATURE PRESENTATION " text zooms in, there is a tan screen for a split-second, then the warning screen appears.
  • A variation exists where the announcer says "Paramount is pleased to bring you our feature presentation". This was used with all three byline variants, and can be found on Laserdisc releases, as well as VHS releases which have no previews before the film (such as the 1989 releases of the first four Star Trek films, the 1998 release of A Separate Peace , the 2000 release of South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut , the 2001 release Nick Jr.'s Imagine That! , any promotional copies of movies released by Paramount (with the exception of Harriet the Spy , The Ghost and the Darkness , The General's Daughter , Coach Carter A Night at the Roxbury , The SpongeBob Square P ants Movie , Teletubbies: Naughty Noo Noo! , Boohbah: Hot Dog , Nickelodeon Super Toons, and the 1998 widescreen VHS release of Forrest Gump , while the full screen version has the standard voice-over). This variant also appears on tapes made and sold exclusively through Columbia House (usually identifiable by the presence of an orange sticker on the cover) On rare occasions, this variation did appear right after previews, such as the 1996 VHS of Ferris Bueller's Day Off and its 2000 reprint, the 2005 demo VHS releases of Mad Hot Ballroom , & Winter Solstice, and a series of four videocassettes sold as part of a 1993 McDonald's promotion, including The Addams Family and Ghost (these releases have the Rank Home Video print logo on one of the spines on the slipcovers for those films and a face label on the tapes with a special red, yellow, black and white color scheme).
  • On the " COMING ATTRACTIONS " variant, the announcer says "Here are some exciting coming attractions from Paramount."
  • The "COMING ATTRACTIONS" version was only used until the late 1990's.
  • The original Gulf+Western variation (which is the least common) made its debut on the May 1989 home video release of Coming to America , and can be found on releases such as the first four Star Trek films , Distant Thunder , The Experts , The Best of Eddie Murphy: Saturday Night Live , Cousins , T he Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad! , Major League , Pet Sematary , and Puppet Master , among others.
  • The Paramount Communications variation (which is easier to find) debuted on the November 1 989 VHS release of Scrooged , and is also on the 1990 VHS release of Grease , the 1991 VHS and Laserdisc releases of Ghost , both Wayne's World films, the 1993 release of Charlotte's Web , and the 1998 widescreen VHS release of Forrest Gump .
  • The Viacom variant is extremely common and appears on nearly every Paramount VHS release from 1995 onwards, starting with the June 1995 VHS release of Drop Zone .
  • The final Paramount film to use this logo was the 2006 VHS of the 2005 remake of Yours, Mine & Ours , and the last tape to use it overall was the 2007 screener VHS of Wonder Pets: Save The Wonder Pets! . Some of the last official releases with this logo (besides the aforementioned Yours, Mine & Ours film) include Elizabethtown , Bad News Bears (the 2005 remake) , Four Brothers , and the film adaptation of The Honeymooners .
  • On the 1991 LaserDisc release of Apocalypse Now and the 1998 VHS release of Titanic , this logo is not shown at all, it just goes straight to the warning screen, while on the 1997 releases of The Godfather trilogy, the logo cuts to a black screen before the 1995 THX logo, as the warnings are placed at the beginning, separate from the logo.
  • The normal version strangely appears on the original 1989 VHS release of Major League and the 1991 Star Trek: The Movies VHS box set (pan and scan version only; the widescreen edition of the box set uses the other voiceover) despite those releases having no previews.
  • This makes a surprise appearance on the United Kingdom VHS releases that have any special features at the end of the tape, such as The Italian Job and Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life .
  • This appears on demo VHS tapes of PBS Kids shows from 2004 to 2006, such as Boohbah . The normal releases just start with the warning screen used on Paramount DVDs.

Paramount Home Video (Christmas Season 1993 Variant)

  • Seen on certain 2002 Paramount Home Video VHS releases from the time frame, such as SpongeBob SquarePants: Sea Stories , The Sum of All Fears , Lucky Break , some prints of Vanilla Sky , MTV Yoga , Crossroads , Dora the Explorer: Move to the Music , The Day Reagan Was Shot , Damaged Care , Bleacher Bums , My Horrible Year! , the demo VHS tapes of Martin Lawrence Live: Runteldat, SpongeBob SquarePants: Bikini Bottom Bash and Hey Arnold!: The Movie , all 3 Jackass volumes, and Rugrats Christmas . Some 2002 releases, strangely, such as Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius , SpongeBob SquarePants: Halloween , 9/11: The Filmmakers' Commemorative Edition , Rugrats Halloween , and the Special Edition VHS release of Rat Race , have this logo's print version on the spine but do not have this logo on the tape, as they use the 5th logo instead.
  • Also, some prints of Changing Lanes do have this logo, but it cuts to the 1995 warning screen instead of the 2002 one (this is probably due to the fact that some prints use the previous Feature Presentation screen instead of this one).

Paramount DVD (2002-2003)

  • The 90th Anniversary version is used on 2002 VHS and DVD releases such as Trading Places , SpongeBob SquarePants: Sea Stories , MTV Yoga , Dora the Explorer: Move to the Music , The Day Reagan Was Shot , Flashdance , Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius (where this oddly plasters the 1999 Paramount logo that the film used), Black Sheep , Vanilla Sky , Major League , Damaged Care , Bleacher Bums , My Horrible Year! , all 3 Jackass volumes, and Rugrats Christmas .
  • The standard version is used on almost every Paramount VHS released from 2003 onwards. It also appears on the European versions of SpongeBob SquarePants DVDs Nautical Nonsense and Sponge Buddies and Halloween .
  • The standard version plasters the 90th Anniversary variant of the 2002 Paramount Pictures logo on the 2003 VHS releases of Extreme Ops , The Wild Thornberrys Movie , Star Trek: Nemesis , Charlotte's Web 2: Wilbur's Great Adventure , and The Hours .

Paramount DVD (2002)

  • It's seen on many post-2003 DVD releases released by the company, starting with the 2003 DVD release of Be My Valentine, Charlie Brown (even though the print logo on the cover has "90th Anniversary" tacked on to it).
  • This logo was seen on DVD releases of Paramount Television -owned series from 2003 to 2006 (when the rights went to CBS Home Entertainment after Viacom and CBS Corporation became separate companies), such as the 2004 releases of season 1 of Happy Days , and season 1 of The Andy Griffith Show and the 2005 release of season 2 of the latter.
  • After 2004 on Nickelodeon TV shows on DVD, this logo doesn't show up.
  • Some DVD releases have "90th Anniversary" added on to this logo's print version, they just contain the normal logo. Examples of this are the 2002 DVD releases of SpongeBob SquarePants: Sea Stories , Flashdance , Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius , Black Sheep , Vanilla Sky , and Trading Places . This logo continued to be used until 2019, as seen on such releases as Race for Your Life, Charlie Brown , Project Almanac , Boyhood , and The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water , The Gambler (the Mark Wahlberg version), and Interstellar , even though Paramount Pictures debuted a new logo in 2011.
  • The last release to use this logo was Instant Family, released on March 5, 2019.

Paramount High Definition (2006)

  • It was also seen on Paramount HD-DVD releases from 2006 to 2008, such as Four Brothers and The Italian Job (2003).
  • Starting sometime in 2007, Paramount's high definition releases were being exclusive to HD-DVD.
  • When Toshiba announced they would discontinue HD-DVD, Paramount Home Media Distribution, like all other home media companies, became Blu-ray only.
  • Their first film on Blu-ray since HD-DVD's discontinuation was The Spiderwick Chronicles .
  • This logo can be found on releases with the print version of this logo on the box art.
  • It was also found on the 2008 Blu-ray release of Last Holiday , in which the print logo was absent on the box art, meaning this logo is still in use, but no longer a has print counterpart.
  • This logo does not appear on UHD 4K Blu-ray Discs, as they use the 2011-present film logo.

Paramountbhciia

Visuals : On a blue-black gradient background, the title of a specific Paramount movie is shown and underneath it in capital letters the text "Coming in *Month* to video stores everywhere from Paramount" or "Coming this *Month* to video stores everywhere" is seen in a white lowercase Helvetica Bold font. Sometimes the text is in a regular Helvetica font. It often had no voiceover until late 1990.

  • On the earliest releases with the bumper, no movie title was used. This version appears on Eddie Murphy: Raw , Planes, Trains, and Automobiles , and Beverly Hills Cop II .
  • Other early VHS releases have the movie text in lowercase.
  • On "Crocodile" Dundee II , the gradient is blue-white.
  • On Fat Man and Little Boy and Harlem Nights , the "available" in "Now available at video stores everywhere" is capitalized.
  • On Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan and Harlem Nights , the background is solid blue.
  • On Shirley Valentine , the gradient runs in the other direction. In addition, following a trailer for Fat Man and Little Boy , the first letter of "this" in the "Coming this May..." clip-on has been capitalized.
  • On the 1991 re-release of Chinatown , a special version is used following a trailer for The Two Jakes , with the movie title centered. Text at the top reads "The sequel to Chinatown" and text at the bottom says "Coming soon on videocassette."
  • On Another 48 Hrs. , the "Coming this February to video stores everywhere" clip-on is used, but with the first letters of each word in "video stores everywhere" capitalized. This follows a trailer for Days of Thunder .
  • On A Show of Force and Days of Thunder , the movie text is in quotation marks. This follows trailers for Tales from the Darkside: The Movie ( A Show of Force ), The Two Jakes , and Ghost ( Days of Thunder ).
  • On the Great Movies, Great Price promo, the gradient runs diagonally and the clip-on text is in all caps.
  • Sometimes the bumper would fade in from black once the trailer finishes, and other times it would cut in from the last frame of the trailer. On Beverly Hills Cop II , the bumper would fade in from the last frame of the trailer.

Audio Variant : Sometimes, the end of the music from any given trailer would play underneath the bumper.

Editor's Note : The clip-ons with the voiceover feel wasted since they were only used for two years.

May 17, 1989-December 27, 2008

First Paramount Home Entertainment Feature Presentation bumper (rare version)

Nicknames : "Coming Attractions", "Feature Presentation", "Abstract Mountain", "Feature Presentation II", "CGI Mountain", "Ultra Majestic Mountain", "Ultra Majestic Paramount"

Visuals : On a background filled with blue/indigo squares, a flat, blue frame with the Paramount abstract mountain logo in silver appears. The stars shine from left to right, before the Paramount frame flies off as the blue/indigo squares move, opening up like a door. The words " C OMING A TTRACTIONS " or " F EATURE P RESENTATION " in gold are revealed on a heliotrope gradient background. They zoom in slowly to the center of the screen. They then shine, and after a few moments, quickly begin zooming in again, cutting the bumper to black (for Coming Attractions) or the warning screen (for Feature Presentation).

Bylines : This used whatever byline Paramount was using at the time:

  • May-November 1989: " A Gulf+Western Company "
  • November 1989-June 1995: "A Paramount Communications Company" (in a sans serif font)
  • June 1995-December 2008: "A VIACOM COMPANY" (in its 1990 corporate font)
  • On most 1989-91 VHS tapes, such as The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad! , Fat Man and Little Boy , Aftershock , Shirley Valentine , Let It Ride , He Said, She Said , and Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan , the Coming Attractions bumper instead cuts to the MPAA rating screen . ( Out of Sight, Out of Mind , co-distributed with Prism Entertainment, is the earliest known release to feature a black screen between the bumper and rating screen.)
  • A rare sub-variant of the 1995 variant has the Feature Presentation bumper cut to black after " F EATURE P RESENTATION " zooms in at the camera. This was spotted only on the 1997 VHS releases of The Godfather trilogy, the 2003 Filipino VCD of Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life , UK tapes that have special features after the film, and an Australian dealer copy of Jackass: The Movie .
  • On tapes with the Gulf+Western variant of the FP bumper, the zoom-in of " F EATURE P RESENTATION " is extended a bit to show a gold screen, which cuts to the warning screen 1-2 seconds later.
  • On Gulf+Western-era releases of the first four Star Trek motion pictures, the beginning logo frame fades in slower and is still for a few seconds before the audio and animation start as usual. As with the above mentioned variant, the zoom-in of " F EATURE P RESENTATION " is extended a bit to show a gold screen, which cuts to the warning screen 1-2 seconds later. This can also be seen in black and white on Sunset Boulevard .
  • On the 1989 VHS release of Will Penny , the FP bumper cuts to black after the gold screen from " F EATURE P RESENTATION ," as the warning screen is placed at the beginning of the tape.
  • Sometimes, on early tapes, the gold screen from the " F EATURE P RESENTATION " text cuts to a black screen. Then, the warning screen pops up. This appears on The Best of Eddie Murphy: Saturday Night Live , Coming to America , The Experts , True Grit , Let's Dance , War and Peace , and the 1989 reissues of Grease and The Ten Commandments .
  • A black and white variant of the Feature Presentation bumper exists. This can be found on 1989-90 prints of Sunset Boulevard , The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance , The Desperate Hours , The Delicate Delinquent , and Hell Is for Heroes .
  • On the 1992 screener VHS of Hired to Kill , the FP bumper cuts in.
  • On the 1991-95 screener tapes of The Two Jakes , Soapdish , The Naked Gun 33 1/3: The Final Insult , and Clear and Present Danger , a timecode is shown in different positions.
  • On tapes with the Paramount Communications byline, it was in a serif font on the "Coming Attractions" version, while the "Feature Presentation" version uses a sans-serif font.
  • On some VHS tapes from 2002, to celebrate Paramount's 90th anniversary, the "Feature Presentation" bumper was enhanced. This time, there is a full color version of the Paramount "90th Anniversary" Ultra Majestic Mountain logo placed on a box over four purple squares. A line of light passes over it, then the logo flies off and the squares peel off, pretty much like before. They reveal the words " FEATURE PRESENTATION " in a gold-yellow bold Onyx font flying into place, each word from a different end, and the words now float against a moving dark cloud background, eventually zooming in towards the screen in a trail of gold light, cutting to the warning screen , which consists of a solid navy blue background this time.
  • The first VHS printing of Changing Lanes uses the 2002 Feature Presentation bumper, but it instead cuts to the 1995-2006 warning screen due to a manufacturing error.

Technique : Both versions use CGI animation. The 90th anniversary variant also used live-action stock footage for the moving cloud background.

Audio : An abridged version of the 1988 rendition of the 1976 Paramount on Parade fanfare (with a rearranged intro as well; the 1986 rendition had the synthesized chimes fade out when the music began), accompanied with a deep-voiced male announcer (presumably Bill McAllister) saying:

  • Coming Attractions : "Here are some exciting coming attractions from Paramount."
  • This was used on videocassettes that had previews before the film, though it strangely appears on Better Off Dead , the Star Trek: The Movies box set (in addition to the 1989 release of Star Trek V: The Final Frontier ), re-releases of Footloose and Top Gun , Just for You , A Soldier's Sweetheart , Midnight in St. Petersburg , Star Trek: Nemesis , The Prince and Me , promotional copies of Teletubbies: Naughty Noo-Noo! , Boohbah: Hot Dog , Rugrats in Paris: The Movie , Whitewash: The Clarence Bradley Story , Jay-Z: Fade to Black , and Queer Duck: The Movie , a Spanish-subtitled print of 'Til There Was You , later prints of Timeline , Extreme Ops , The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad! , Patriot Games , The Butcher's Wife , Necessary Roughness , Dickie Roberts: Former Child Star , The Naked Gun 2½: The Smell of Fear , Prehysteria , Major League , Narc , Cousins , Boomerang , Scrooged , The Addams Family , Kid Cop , We Were Soldiers , The Core , Sliver , The Fighting Temptations , Mean Girls , School of Rock , The Perfect Score , and Paycheck , most Paramount Communications-era Philips CD-I disc releases of Paramount films, and the 1991 screener of The Pit and the Pendulum , all of which have no previews.
  • This was used with all three byline variants, and can be found on Laserdiscs and Viacom-era Philips CD-Is (as well as the Paramount Communications-era releases of The Addams Family , Black Rain , and Apocalypse Now ), as well as videocassettes without any opening previews. On very rare occasions, though, this variation did appear on tapes with previews, examples including: Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade , Wayne's World , Delicatessen , Pet Shop , Spellbreaker: Secret of the Leprechauns , the 1996 VHS of Ferris Bueller's Day Off , screener tapes of Trancers II: The Return of Jack Deth , The Silver Stallion: King of the Wild Brumbies , It's All True , Intersection , Jimmy Hollywood , The Browning Version (1994) , I.Q. , Pontiac Moon , Parallel Lives , Dead Man on Campus , Hollywood Confidential , Midnight Man , Bad Apple , Apres Vous , Asylum , Ask the Dust , Year of the Dog , and Next , two out of four videocassettes sold as part of a 1993 McDonald's promotion, Ghost and The Addams Family (these releases have the Rank Home Video print logo on one of the spines on the slipcovers for those films and a face label on the tapes with a special red, yellow, black and white color scheme; Charlotte's Web and Wayne's World use the normal voiceover), and the Directors' Series editions of Fatal Attraction and Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home .
  • This was also used on the 90th Anniversary FP bumper on Damaged Care , Bleacher Bums , The Day Reagan Was Shot , My Horrible Year! , Bobbie's Girl , alternate prints of The Sum of All Fears , and demo tapes from this era such as those of Martin Lawrence Live: Runteldat , SpongeBob SquarePants: Bikini Bottom Bash , SpongeBob SquarePants: Deep Sea Sillies , Rugrats: Mysteries , Hey Arnold!: The Movie , and Who is Cletis Tout? .

Audio Variants :

  • On the VHS of The Desperate Hours and the Laserdisc of The Best of Eddie Murphy: Saturday Night Live (both from 1989), as well as some screener tapes, the ending of the fanfare is cut off.
  • On the 1991 screener VHS of Subspecies , the FP bumper is silent.
  • On the 1992 screener VHS of Hired to Kill , due to the FP bumper cutting in, the theme starts a split-second in.

Availability : Depends on the version, but as a whole, ultra common, since it was used for 19 years. It appears on the majority of Paramount's home video releases.

  • The Gulf+Western variant is the rarest of the three, but can be found on the 1989 VHS releases of Coming to America (on which it made its debut following a Pepsi commercial), The Experts , Major League , and The Naked Gun .
  • The Paramount Communications version is the most common, and appears on 1989-95 VHS tapes such as Wayne's World , The Addams Family , It's the Easter Beagle, Charlie Brown , The Kid Who Loved Christmas , Patriot Games , Jennifer 8 , Denis Leary: No Cure for Cancer , the first two Prehysteria! films, Beverly Hills Cop III , Ladybugs , and What's Eating Gilbert Grape? .
  • The Viacom version, whose availability falls in-between the Gulf+Western and Paramount Communications versions, is seen on 1995-96 VHS tapes such as Prehysteria! 3 , Magic Island , the original 1996 releases of Rugrats: Tommy Troubles and Rugrats: Phil and Lil Double Trouble , Is This Goodbye, Charlie Brown? , Eye for an Eye , Tommy Boy , Braveheart , Congo , Star Trek: Generations , Drop Zone , Journey's End: The Saga of Star Trek: The Next Generation , The Best of Mission Impossible: Volume 1 , and The Phantom (on which it made its final appearance).
  • While it usually appeared as the first thing on the tape, it appears as the second thing on the aforementioned Coming to America and two 1994 Peanuts videos released in conjunction with Travelodge, It's a Mystery, Charlie Brown and You Don't Look 40, Charlie Brown .
  • While it was typically used on tapes that used the "And now, we're..." variant of the Feature Presentation bumper, a few tapes (e.g. Wayne's World and Delicatessen ) use this and the "Paramount is..." variant of the FP bumper.
  • The Gulf+Western variant is the toughest find of the three, as it was only used for six months before being replaced by the Paramount Communications variant. It debuted on Coming to America , and can be found on the earliest releases with this bumper, such as the first four Star Trek motion pictures, the 1989 VHS release of Grease , Major League , The Naked Gun: From the Flies of the Police Squad! , Pet Sematary , Puppet Master , The Experts , Cousins , Popeye , True Grit , Arrowhead , Let's Dance , War & Peace , The Naked Prey , Will Penny , The Best of Eddie Murphy: Saturday Night Live , Sunset Boulevard , and The Desperate Hours .
  • The Paramount Communications variant is a bit easier to find, and can be found on 1989-95 VHS releases such as both Wayne's World films, Coneheads , one-third of Paramount's Peanuts releases, the 1990 reissue of Grease , Ghost , Forrest Gump , the 1993 reissue of Charlotte's Web , Cool World , the first two Prehysteria! films, and both Paramount Addams Family movies.
  • The Viacom variant is the most common of the three, and appears on the vast majority of Paramount VHS tapes from 1995-2006, as well as some Paramount Communications reprints. This version was debuted on the retail release of Drop Zone (the screener version used the Paramount Communications byline). A 2000 printing of This is America, Charlie Brown: The Wright Brothers at Kitty Hawk retains the original Paramount Communications variant of the Coming Attractions bumper, while this bumper appears in its Viacom version.
  • Strangely, on the 1998 VHS of Titanic , cassette #1 starts right at the warning screen, likely because it was co-distributed by 20th Century Fox (now 20th Century Studios) or there wasn't much room on the tape. It also wasn't seen on the 1989 demo VHS of Scrooged , the 1990 demo VHS of Hawks (which cuts right to the start of the movie after a retailer promo for it and Black Rain ), the 1991 VHS releases of the Indiana Jones trilogy (the 1989 and 1999 releases still had this intact), the 1989 VHS of The Shootist (later releases still had this intact), a 1990 reprint of Breakfast at Tiffany's , the 1991 Laserdisc of Apocalypse Now , the 1989 Laserdisc of The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad! , some Star Trek: The Animated Series tapes, alternate copies of The Truman Show and Sliding Doors , some Boohbah tapes such as Snowman and Comfy Armchair , CHC prints of Payback , and the majority of French Canadian releases after Malofilm ceased being the French Canadian distributor of Paramount titles (although a few French Canadian releases actually do have this).
  • The bumper appears twice on double feature demo tapes from Paramount, preceding both features on the cassette. It is also seen twice (with the Paramount logo coming in-between) on the 1998 demo VHS of Midnight Man , in both the "And now, we're..." and "Paramount is..." voiceover variants.
  • The last Paramount film to have this bumper, and the final commercial tape to feature the "Paramount is..." voiceover, was Yours, Mine & Ours . The last commercial tape to feature the "And now, we're..." voiceover, and the last commercial tape to use this bumper overall, was Go Diego Go!: Diego Saves Christmas! , which is also Paramount's final commercial VHS. However, it continued to appear on rare screener tapes of material released beyond that point, such as An Inconvenient Truth , The Wonder Pets: Save the Wonder Pets! , and Ghost Town , none of which were released on VHS commercially.
  • It debuted on the second VHS print of Vanilla Sky , and can also be seen on some other 2002 tapes, such as SpongeBob SquarePants: Sea Stories , Rugrats: Christmas , later prints of Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius , Orange County and Crossroads , Jackass: Volumes 1, 2, and 3 , MTV Yoga , Dora the Explorer: Move to the Music , Lucky Break , The Sum of All Fears , My Horrible Year! , Damaged Care , K-19: The Widowmaker , The Day Reagan Was Shot , The Emperor's New Clothes , the 2002 reissues of Rules of Engagement and Charlotte's Web , five demo tapes of the era ( Martin Lawrence Live: Runteldat , SpongeBob SquarePants: Bikini Bottom Bash , SpongeBob SquarePants: Deep Sea Sillies , Rugrats: Mysteries and Hey Arnold!: The Movie ), Blue's Clues: It's Joe Time! , Little Bill: Merry Christmas Little Bill , Dora the Explorer: Christmas , and Bobbie's Girl . The last tape to contain it is Bleacher Bums .
  • Strangely, some tapes from the year, such as the original prints of Vanilla Sky , Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius , Orange County and Crossroads , the demo tapes of SpongeBob SquarePants: Sea Stories and The Sum of All Fears , Clockstoppers , 9/11: The Filmmakers' Commemorative Edition , SpongeBob SquarePants: Halloween , Rugrats: Halloween , later prints and the demo tape of Changing Lanes , the retail editions of Martin Lawrence Live: Runteldat and Hey Arnold!: The Movie , Serving Sara , Blue's Clues: Meet Joe! , Rat Race: Special Edition , Rugrats: Easter , Little Bill: I Love Animals , and We Were Soldiers , have the 90th Anniversary print logo on the packaging and tape label, but not on the tapes themselves, as they use the original FP bumper instead.

Editor's Note : Despite the nature of this bumper and its primitive CGI animation (including the text becoming pixelated upon zoom-in), it held up pretty well throughout its lifespan, and as such has become a favorite bumper of many. The 90th Anniversary FP clip-on is a great bumper from Paramount that was specifically made to contemplate the studio's 90th Anniversary logo nicely, even though it didn't see as much exposure as the original version.

March 28, 1991-December 1, 1998

D2DA309A-3F08-4B5D-8F95-A96BB71B0C6D

Visuals : On the background of the later 1989 (or 1995) variant of Paramount's warning screen , the title of a specific Paramount movie is displayed in capital letters, in a big silver font. Below it is any of the following clip-ons in a slightly smaller white font, with only the first letter of the clip-on and the month capitalized.

  • On The Butcher's Wife , the "Coming this June to video stores everywhere" clip-on appears twice, bookending MC Hammer's music video for "Addams Groove," which was used to promote The Addams Family .
  • On Juice , both voiceover variants were used with the "Coming this August to video stores everywhere." clip-on; the low-voice version follows an ad for Time Out: The Truth About HIV, AIDS and You , and the jolly-voice version follows the trailer for Wayne's World .
  • On Mandroid and There Goes the Neighborhood , the "Coming this August to video stores everywhere" clip-on appears after a trailer for Remote , which was originally slated to be released that month but delayed to September.
  • On Shrunken Heads , the trailer for Oblivion is shown twice (once during the opening previews, and again between the end of the movie and the Full Moon Entertainment "Videozone" behind-the-scenes feature), with the "Coming this December to video stores everywhere." clip-on only appearing the first time.
  • Two 1995 releases use this bumper after a trailer for Star Trek Generations , but with the title arranged differently. On Drop Zone , the title is on one line, while on From Here to Infinity: The Ultimate Voyage , the title is on two lines.
  • On VHS tapes of Sightings , the "Now available on videocassette" clip on appears in two different ways. The first time it appears, after a trailer for The Sightings Video Collection , it has a period at the end. On its second appearance, after a trailer for From Here to Infinity: The Ultimate Voyage , there is no period.
  • From 1991-95, the clip-on would have a period at the end.
  • In 1991, the clip-on would read "coming in *Month* to video stores everywhere." or "now available on video cassette."
  • On The Pit and the Pendulum , following a trailer for Subspecies , "This picture has not yet been rated." appears in an even smaller font at the bottom of the "coming in August..." clip-on.
  • On Funny About Love and Welcome Home Roxy Carmichael (some of the first releases to use this screen), the text is in a different font.
  • On the screener tape of Subspecies , a rare variant appears before each of the Full Moon trailers ( The Pit and the Pendulum and Subspecies itself). Here, the text is much larger, in a different font, and reads " AVAILABLE [DATE] FROM PARAMOUNT HOME VIDEO ." A pink line is at the bottom.
  • On the Paramount Family Favorites reissue of The Beautician and the Beast , after a trailer for A Smile Like Yours , the clip-on reads "Rent it now on videocassette."
  • Another rare variant has the text "Rent it this *Month* at video stores everywhere." The only known months used with it are January, April, and November. The "Rent it this January..." clip-on is the most common, as it can be seen on certain 1997-1998 VHS releases following the trailer for Good Burger , though some releases (such as the Rugrats tapes Diapered Duo and Dr. Tommy Pickles ) instead have the "Coming this February to video stores everywhere" text. On Beavis and Butt-head Do America and Star Trek: First Contact , it also appears after the trailer for Event Horizon .
  • A few rare "Now available..." variants exist, with the text reading either "Now available wherever videos are sold or rented", "Now available wherever videocassettes are sold", or just "Now available". No voiceover is used on any of these.
  • 1991-95 releases have the Paramount Communications bylines in the background.
  • 1995-98 releases have the Viacom "Wigga-Wigga" bylines in the background.
  • Grease 2 : on videocassette June 23.
  • 'Til There Was You and Roman Holiday : Now available on videocassette.
  • On The Odd Couple II , the font is especially compressed and the ID stays on-screen longer.
  • A drop shadow was added in 1993.

Clip-ons : Legend: [n] - no voiceover, [v] - two voiceovers used

  • Coming this summer to a theater near you. [n] (This clip-on can be found on Body Parts .)
  • Coming this January to video stores everywhere [v] (A third voiceover was found on Sliding Doors , in which he says it in a jolly-pitched voice like on Version #2, but the tone and speed are different.)
  • Rent it this January at video stores everywhere (The announcer actually says "Coming this January to video stores everywhere".)
  • Coming this April to video stores everywhere [v]
  • Rent it this April at video stores everywhere (The announcer actually says "Coming this April to video stores everywhere".)
  • Coming this May to video stores everywhere [v]

  • Coming this July to video stores everywhere [v] (A jolly-pitched voiceover was found on Killer Image .)
  • Coming this August to video stores everywhere [v]
  • coming in August to video stores everywhere. (This clip-on can be found on a handful of 1991 releases, with three different voiceovers. On The End of Innocence , Version #1 is used. On Almost an Angel and Subspecies , Version #2 is used. A third voiceover is used on He Said, She Said , Flight of the Intruder , True Colors , and The Pit and the Pendulum , where the announcer says the text in a deeper voice than usual.)
  • Available this August wherever videocassettes are sold. [n]
  • Coming this September to video stores everywhere [v] (A third voiceover was found on Nobody's Fool and Circumstances Unknown .)
  • coming in September to video stores everywhere. (This clip-on can be found on The Perfect Weapon .)

  • Rent it this November at video stores everywhere (The announcer actually says "Coming this November to video stores everywhere".)

  • Coming soon to video stores everywhere. [n] (This clip-on can be found on Hear My Song , Bad Channels , Subspecies II , and Delicatessen .)
  • Now available [n] (This clip-on can be found on Cool World after a promo for the SNES Cool World video game by Ocean.)
  • Now available on videocassette [v] (A third voiceover is used on Hunting , Ladybugs , K2: The Ultimate High , Hostage , The Spider and the Fly , and Private Parts , in which the announcer says the text in a deep voice.)
  • now available on video cassette. (This can be seen on The End of Innocence )
  • now available on videocassette. (A version of the above clip-on that has "videocassette" as one word. This version can be seen on Talent for the Game , Regarding Henry , and Hunting .)
  • Rent it now on videocassette (The announcer actually says "Now available on videocassette".)
  • Now available wherever videocassettes are sold [n] (This clip-on can be found at the end of a promo for Indecent Proposal , The Firm and Sliver on Beverly Hills Cop III .)
  • Now available wherever videos are sold or rented. [n] (This clip-on can be found after a promo for Wayne's World on Boomerang , and after a promo for Time Out: The Truth About HIV, AIDS, and You on Patriot Games , Hostage , and Cool World .)
  • Now available wherever videocassettes are sold or rented. [n] (This clip-on can be found after a promo for Time Out: The Truth About HIV, AIDS, and You on Bebe's Kids .)

Audio : Same as the second bumper, except Brian Cummings says the lowercase lettered text more consistently than before. A few different voiceovers were used for some of the screens; for the sake of convenience, these are listed as Version #1, where he says it in a low voice, and Version #2, where he says it in a jollier voice.

  • On some 1991 releases, the end of the music from any given trailer would play underneath the bumper.
  • On the Subspecies screener variant, a tune played on what appears to be a slide whistle plays.
  • On Subspecies , after a trailer for Trancers II: The Return of Jack Deth , Cummings' voiceover starts at the last second of the trailer.

Availability : More common than the first screen. It can be found on most Paramount videocassettes from the era after each individual trailer, such as Funny About Love (the first tape to have it), The Butcher's Wife , Ladybugs , Patriot Games , Wayne's World , Whispers in the Dark , Clear and Present Danger , Blue Chips , Nick of Time , The Brady Bunch Movie , Eye for an Eye , Beavis and Butt-Head Do America , The Evening Star , Switchback , The Odd Couple II , and Sliding Doors (the last tape to have it).

Editor's Note : Several variants strangely have Cummings saying the wrong text.

October 1, 1996-September 25, 2001

Visuals : Same as the 1995 Paramount Pictures logo, except it contains a brighter color scheme, is videotaped, and slightly zooms in when the “Paramount” script fades in.

Variant : On Mission: Impossible , the logo animates at warp speed.

Technique : Same as the 1995 Paramount Pictures logo, which uses a combination of live-action model work and CGI animation from Flip Your Lid Animation and Apogee, Inc.

Audio : Silent, except for Brian Cummings or Nick Tate saying one of the following:

  • Paramount Family Favorites : Brian Cummings: "Paramount Home Video introduces Paramount Family Favorites, a collection of memorable feature films, perfect for the entire family."
  • Coming to Theaters : Nick Tate: "Coming to theaters this holiday season from Paramount Pictures."

Availability : The first voiceover variant appears on all Paramount VHS tapes with the Paramount Family Favorites trailer, such as the Paramount rereleases of the Sony Wonder Rugrats tapes, the 1996-98 VHS releases of The Phantom , Harriet the Spy , Good Burger , and The Education of Little Tree , the Special Edition of Snow Day , and most Paramount Family Favorites VHS tapes (some might not have them). The second voiceover variant appears only on Mission: Impossible .

October 15, 1996-September 20, 2005

Coming to Video Stores

Visuals : On a black background, one of the clip-ons below appears in white, capital letters.

  • COMING TO VIDEO STORES
  • COMING TO THEATRES (only seen on Deep Impact )
  • COMING SOON TO VIDEO AND DVD
  • COMING SOON ON DVD AND VIDEO
  • AVAILABLE NOW ON VIDEO AND DVD
  • NOW AVAILABLE ON DVD AND VIDEO (these next two clip-ons are seen exclusively on The Singing Detective )
  • NOW AVAILABLE ON DVD AND VHS
  • A sub-variant appears during a home video trailer for The Longest Yard (as found on its screener VHS as well as the 2005 DVD of Sahara ), where the text zooms towards the viewer.

Technique : A photo still created on a computer with fading effects.

Audio : Silent (also for the rest of these Clip-ons), except for the announcer, Brian Cummings, enthusiastically saying one of the following:

  • Coming to Video Stores : "Coming this November to video stores."
  • Coming to Theatres : "Coming to theatres!"
  • A variant of the "COMING TO VIDEO STORES" clip-on features Cummings saying "And, coming this February from Paramount Home Video." This appears only on the original release of The Truman Show .
  • Sometimes it could be the end of the trailer theme, like the Orange County trailer theme.

Availability : Rare.

  • The first two clip-ons was used for a very short time before being replaced with the next bumper, but can be found on the original releases of Deep Impact and The Truman Show . It first appeared earlier on the 1996 VHS of Primal Fear .
  • The others debuted on Snake Eyes , and appeared on some 1999-2004 tapes, such as The Four Feathers , Star Trek: Nemesis , The Hunted , The Perfect Score , Mean Girls , and Paycheck , as well as screener tapes such as the 2004 demos of The Perfect Score , The United States of Leland , and The Prince & Me . Because this version appears at the end of trailers rather than the beginning, some trailers have their own end-of-trailer card instead, making this bumper rare.

Editor's Note : The first two clip-ons had no animation, until the 1999 VHS of Dead Man on Campus , where the rest of these bumpers fade in and out. Before this, it was used before 1999-2003 clip-ons showed up.

February 16, 1999-February 18, 2003

Coming attractions bumper 10

Visuals : There is a still shot of the 1995 Paramount Home Video/Entertainment logo fading in and fading out to a black background (with the clouds still moving). They then see one of the clip-ons below fade in, zoom in, then fade out.

Clip-ons : Legend: [a] - both announcers used, [n] - no announcers used

  • Coming To Theaters [a]
  • Now In Theaters [a] (This can be found on Enemy at the Gates , Along Came a Spider , The Emperor's New Clothes , Festival in Cannes , and Triumph of Love )
  • Coming To Videocassette
  • Now Available On Videocassette
  • Coming To Videocassette And DVD
  • Now Available On Videocassette And DVD
  • Coming To DVD
  • Now Available On DVD (This can be found on Orange County and Mostly Martha )
  • The Previously Unreleased Vanilla Sky Teaser Trailer [n] (Exclusive to the 2002 VHS release of Vanilla Sky )
  • Special variants of these bumpers appeared on Vanilla Sky . On a white background, we see the texts in a narrow black font, and in all capitals. The other announcer says some of the texts in this variant.
  • On the original variant of the "Now In Theaters" clip-on, the standard edition of the re-done 1999 version of the logo (in open matte) is used instead of the 1995 version.
  • Starting in 2002, the logo is cut and only the clip-on is shown. Rarely, even before this, the original clip-ons will sometimes also appear without the logo.
  • On Orange County , the clip-ons appear in a slightly different font, which turns out to be Times New Roman Bold.

Technique : 2D computer animation, and on the original variant, the Paramount logo is a photo still created on a computer.

Audio : The original four clip-ons have Beau Weaver announcing them, usually after a few seconds of silence following the Paramount logo. Another male announcer, Brian Cummings, announces the last four clip-ons, as well as the later variant of the "Coming To Theaters" and "Now In Theaters" clip-ons.

Availability : Fairly common. This was seen on most tapes of the era, such as many Nickelodeon TV and movie releases, including Snow Day , Blue's Big Musical Movie , Clockstoppers , Hey Arnold!: The Movie , SpongeBob SquarePants: Sea Stories , Rugrats: Christmas and SpongeBob SquarePants: Sponge Buddies . It premiered on Snake Eyes , and was last seen on The Four Feathers . The later variant is rarer.

Editor's Note : Unlike the other bumpers by Paramount, this one is not very well received.

April 24, 2001

ALSO AVAILABLE FROM STUDIO HOME ENTERTAINMENT

Bumper : Same as the Studio Home Entertainment Also Available bumper.

FX/SFX : The logo animating normally, plus the fade in of "ALSO AVAILABLE."

Music/Sounds : Same as the Studio Home Entertainment Also Available bumper.

Though Paramount + has yet to reach the subscriber numbers of Netflix, Disney+ and HBO Max, top executives at ViacomCBS are forging ahead with the company’s streaming revolution by relying on more revivals and reboots of nostalgic, fan-favorite IP and sequels of popular projects to draw in viewer interest.

The company’s annual investor day presentation on Tuesday, which arrived close to the one-year anniversary since Paramount+’s launch, opened with a flashy rebrand : ViacomCBS will now be known as Paramount, in a nod to the legacy film studio.

The announcement — just over two years after Viacom and CBS officially recombined — came shortly after an eyebrow-raising clip of chairwoman Shari Redstone and CEO Bob Bakish starring in an explosive action sequence as they drove together in Bumblebee, the yellow robot from the Transformers franchise.

“Paramount has always represented brilliant storytelling for audiences around the globe — on the big screen, the small screen and every device in between,” Redstone said to open the investor day event. “It is what we are. It is who we are. It is who we are destined to be.”

Executives are still tying that future with streaming, even as Paramount+ lags behind competitors in subscriber numbers and global reach. The nascent streaming service reached 32.8 million subscribers to end 2021, growing from 16.5 million at the end of Q1.

The company is also making moves to further integrate Paramount+ with premium cable network Showtime by unveiling an option to watch Showtime programming on Paramount+ at a $12-a-month fee (with ads) or $15 (ad-free). And Paramount will up its spending on streaming content from $2.2 billion in 2021 to $6 billion by 2024. (In comparison, Netflix spent $17 billion while Disney spent $25 billion last year.)

Domestic average revenue per user (ARPU) for Paramount+ was close to $9 during Q4, according to Paramount CFO Naveen Chopra, though that figure includes paid and promotional subscribers. Netflix, on the other hand, most recently reported its U.S./Canada ARPU at $14.78, followed by HBO and HBO Max at $11.15 domestically. Disney+’s domestic ARPU is the lowest at $6.68, though Hulu is the moneymaker with its live TV subscription tier bringing an average $87.01 per user.

Among the new content releases unveiled on Tuesday included a new  Star Trek  film expected in December 2023, a third  Sonic the Hedgehog  movie and a live-action series based on the Knuckles character from the franchise for Paramount+, a third  Quiet Place  film with John Krasinski and a slew of kids programming based on the  SpongeBob SquarePants, Dora the Explorer, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Blue’s Clues ,  Baby Shark  and  Paw Patrol  IP. Paramount+ will also be the streaming home for all the film studio’s releases following their theatrical releases beginning in 2024.

But during a Q&A with analysts, Bakish emphasized that new content wasn’t the only draw for increasing subscriber engagement.

“What is tremendously valuable in streaming is library and specifically series that are deep in number of seasons,” the executive said, pointing to series like SpongeBob, NCIS, FBI  and  SEAL Team. “It’s not all about exclusive originals. … We have very high-quality libraries from the original Paramount Studio, from CBS, from Showtime, from the cable networks, and those are tremendously valuable for streaming, both for Paramount+ and for Pluto TV. So don’t lose sight of that value because it is very material, and it’s key to our long-term streaming economics.”

With current Paramount+ subscriber numbers exceeding previous expectations, executives are now eyeing a new benchmark: upwards of 120 million subscribers by 2024.

“We are very early in the Paramount+ subscriber journey,” Bakish said. “So there’s a ways to go in terms of the scale Paramount+ will build in the United States.”

Paramount hires a bank to explore the sale of vidcon, the move comes amid the company's broader merger and sales efforts.

Paramount Global has hired the bank Oaklins DeSilva+Phillips to explore the sale of VidCon , a live event franchise focused on the creator economy, according to a source familiar with the matter.

The company is hoping to secure a strategic buyer for the experiential property rather than a private equity firm, according to the person. The source added that VidCon is not a distressed asset, but it’s unclear what price Paramount is seeking.

Representatives from both Paramount and Oaklins DeSilva+Phillips declined to comment.

The efforts to explore a sale of VidCon come at a critical juncture for Paramount, which is itself the target of several competing acquisition efforts. 

According to The Wall Street Journal , Skydance Media has agreed in principle to acquire Shari Redstone’s National Amusements, which holds the majority of voting shares of Paramount Global, for around $2 billion in cash as part of ongoing exclusive negotiations.

A second part of that proposed deal involves Paramount Global acquiring Skydance in an all-stock deal of around $5 billion.

Meanwhile, ahead of the exclusive talks with Skydance, private equity firm Apollo Global Management submitted an offer of $26 billion to acquire Paramount. The company reportedly declined the offer because the firm hadn’t lined up financing.

Paramount and Innovid found success with interactive Super Bowl ads.

The potential sale comes as merger and acquisition activity in the broader market has begun to pick up, according to Progress Ventures senior director Sam Thompson, who doesn’t have direct knowledge of the sale attempt. VidCon’s events operation isn’t core to Paramount’s main media and entertainment business, Thompson noted.

By selling VidCon, Paramount could invest the funds from the sale back into its core business, he added, making it a healthier operation and one more appealing to potential suitors.

“This is a consideration that has almost certainly been influenced by Paramount’s extraneous plans, but it also allows them to focus resources internally in more important areas,” Thompson said.

The expanding VidCon business

Paramount (then Viacom) acquired VidCon in 2018 from YouTube creators John and Hank Green for an undisclosed sum. 

The property’s events bring together digital creators , fans and executives in adjacent industries, making it both consumer- and business-facing.

Though its flagship event takes place in June in Anaheim, Calif., VidCon has expanded to locales including London, Sao Paulo and Mexico City. Last September, Paramount hosted the inaugural East Coast VidCon in Baltimore, Md. In 2023, the Anaheim event attracted 55,000 attendees, according to the company.

VidCon generates revenue through a mix of ticket sales and sponsorships—last year, YouTube served as its title sponsor .

City Street Guides by f.d. walker: A Street Photography Guide to Moscow, Russia

moscow-guide-cover

*A series of guides on shooting Street Photography in cities around the world. Find the best spots to shoot, things to capture, street walks, street tips, safety concerns, and more for cities around the world. I have personally researched, explored and shot Street Photography in every city that I create a guide for. So you can be ready to capture the streets as soon as you step outside with your camera!

At over 12 million people, Moscow is the largest city in Russia and second largest in Europe by population ( Istanbul is #1). An urban, cosmopolitan metropolis with more than enough glitz and glam to cater to the elite, but without losing its fair share of Soviet era roughness around the edges. It can be fast paced, brash, busy, and trendy like other big cities, but it has its blend of West meets Russia atmosphere and beauty that provides plenty of unique interest. The Red Square is as famous as it gets, but there’s so much more to this city, including the most beautiful subway system you’ve ever seen. It would take years to capture all of Moscow, but that means you have an endless amount of areas to discover.

paramount a viacom company feature presentation

So here’s a Street Photography guide so you can be ready to capture all that Moscow has to offer before you even arrive!

  • Patriarch’s Pond
  • Old Arbat Street
  • Maroseyka Street
  • Tverskoy Boulevard

Top 5 Street Spots:

1. red square.

The Red Square is the most famous square in not just Russia, but all of Eastern Europe. The name actually doesn’t come from the color of the bricks or communism, but from the name in Russian, Krásnaya, once meaning “beautiful” before its meaning changed to “red.” This large plaza is what you see on the cover of guide books and magazines for Moscow, with St. Basil’s Cathedral being the center piece next to Lenin’s Mausoleum surrounded by the Kremlin Wall. Of course, the Red Square attracts hordes of tourist due to the main attractions, but all that activity around an interesting atmosphere does provide street photo opportunities. It’s also the central square connecting to the city’s major streets, providing a good starting point to explore outward.

paramount a viacom company feature presentation

You’ll also find the popular pedestrian only Nikolskaya Street connecting the Red Square to Lubyanka Square. This line of expensive shops includes plenty of activity, while also leading you to another popular square. Filled with history rivaling any city, the Red Square and surrounding areas are the heart and soul of Russia.

paramount a viacom company feature presentation

2. Patriarch’s Ponds

Patriarch’s Ponds is one of the most exclusive neighborhoods in Moscow. Despite the name being plural, there’s only one large pond, but it’s worth a visit with your camera. It’s a popular spot for locals and expats to come relax or take a stroll around the pond. You get an interesting mix of young and old too, from young love to “babushkas” feeding pigeons. It’s a very peaceful park atmosphere in one of the nicer areas within the city center, while bringing enough activity for street photography. 

paramount a viacom company feature presentation

The pond is shallow and in the winter becomes a popular spot for ice-skating too. The area is also well-known for the location in the famous Russian novel, The Master and Margarita. 

3. Old Arbat (Stary Arbat)

Old Arbat is the most famous pedestrian street in Moscow, and dating back to the 15th century, also one of its oldest. Originally, it was an area of trade, but soon became the most prestigious residential area in Moscow. During the 18th century, Arbat started attracting the city’s scholars and artists, including Alexander Pushkin. Cafes lined the streets and impressive homes filled the neighborhood. Since then, New Arbat street was created as a highway in the area, while Old Arbat was paved for a 1km pedestrian only walkway.

paramount a viacom company feature presentation

Due to the historic buildings, famous artists that lived here, and the bohemian atmosphere, Old Arbat has become a big attraction for tourists today. Now, there’s a mix of cafes, restaurants, souvenir shops, street performers, street merchants and other attractions for visitors, and some locals, to come enjoy. It can get really busy here and there’s usually something interesting going on so it’s a good street to come walk with your camera for guaranteed life.

4. Gorky Park

One of the most famous places in Moscow is Gorky Park. The official name is Maxim Gorky’s Central Park of Culture & Leisure, which gives you an idea of what goes on here. When built, it was the first of its kind in the Soviet Union. Divided into two parts, it stretches along Moscow River. One end contains fair rides, foods stands, tennis courts, a sports club, a lake for boat rides, and more. This end brings more active life due to its number of attractions, while the other end is more relaxed, where you’ll find gardens, trees, older buildings, and an outdoor amphitheater.

paramount a viacom company feature presentation

Gorky Park attracts mostly locals so it’s a good spot to capture the non-tourist side of Moscow life. Muscovites come here to escape the city and unwind in a picturesque setting. The park remains alive outside of the warmer months too, especially when the lake turns into the city’s largest outdoor skating rink. I’d recommend taking the metro out here to spend at least half a day exploring the massive park’s life with your camera.

5. Maroseyka Street

Maroseyka Street is a popular area not too far from the Red Square. The long, winding street turns into Pokrovka and is lined with restaurants, cafes, bars and places to stay. It’s actually where I like to stay when I’m in Moscow due to its location and solid street photography opportunities itself. You have Kitay-gorod station near and if you keep walking southwest, you’ll get to the Red Square. But if you walk northwest, as it changes to Pokrovka, you can find a long street of activity for photography with its own interesting atmosphere.

paramount a viacom company feature presentation

6. Tverskoy Boulevard

Tverskoy Boulevard is the oldest and longest boulevard in Moscow, beginning at the end of Nikitsky Boulevard, and finishing at Pushkin Square, a spot to come for activity itself. The boulevard is made up of two avenues, with pedestrian walkways in-between. You’ll find grass, shrubbery, trees, benches and more walking it’s almost kilometer length. Many people come here to enjoy some relaxation, walk their dog, or just to use it to walk wherever they’re going. Its center location also provides a nice place to walk with your camera near plenty of other spots you’ll want to check out anyway.

Sample Street Walk:

For a full day of Street Photography, covering some of the best spots, you can follow this sample street walk for Moscow:

  • Start your morning walking around the Red Square (1), while exploring the surrounding area, including Nikolskaya Street
  • Then walk northwest to Patriarch’s Ponds (2) and slowly walk the pond and surrounding area with your camera
  • Next, walk east to the Pushkin Monument and stroll down Tverskoy Boulevard (6)
  • Once Tverskoy Boulevard (6) ends, it will turn into Nikitsky Boulevard. Follow this down until you get to the start of Old Arbat Street (3), across from Arbatskaya station
  • After you’re done walking down Old Arbat Street (3) for more street photography, spend some time checking out Moscow’s beautiful metro stations
  • To finish off the day with more street photography, get off the metro near Red Square (1) again, Maroseyka Street (5) or wherever you’re staying for the night.

3 Things I’ll Remember about Shooting in Moscow:

1. museum metro.

The Moscow metro system was the first underground railway system in the Soviet Union and today includes 203 stations across 340km of routes. The elaborate system has some of the deepest stations in the world too, with escalators that seem to go on forever. None of this is what makes it so special, though. Many of its stations feel like stepping inside a museum, making it without a doubt the most interesting and beautiful metro system I’ve been in.

paramount a viacom company feature presentation

When built, Stalin wanted to make the metro stations “palaces for the people” with marble, chandeliers, and grand architecture. The best part is the variety of architecture and styles used, making many of the stations a completely different experience visually. You could easily spend a whole day traveling the stations and there are even tours available for people who wish to do just that. My advice, though, would be just to buy a ticket and hop on and off at different stations, while exploring different lines. The museum-like surrounding mixed with the crowds of characters can make for a great photography experience.

paramount a viacom company feature presentation

Since there are so many stations, here are some of my favorites to check out:

  • Novoslobodskaya
  • Mayakovskaya
  • Elektrozavodskaya
  • Komsomolskaya
  • Ploschad Revolyutsii
  • Dostoyevskaya
  • Prospekt Mira

2. Moscow is Big

It’s no secret that Moscow is a big city, but it can feel even bigger with how spread out much of it is. This is especially true if you compare it to cities outside of Asia. If I compared it to cities in Europe, I’d probably say only Istanbul would warrant more time to really discover the depths of this city. Most only explore around the Red Square and surrounding area, but that is such a small part of the city. Although, that central area does give you plenty to see on its own.

paramount a viacom company feature presentation

Fortunately, I had a good friend living in the city to show me around, but it opened up my eyes even more to how much there is to discover in Moscow. It’s a big city with a variety of atmosphere that can take you from “east” to “west” and trendy to rugged depending on where you go. I’d imagine you’d have to live here a while to really know the city.

3. Cosmopolitan Mix of East meets West

Modern skyscrapers mixed with amazing architecture, a world-class metro system with museum-like beauty, trendy fashion and chic clubs, Moscow is a rich mix of Russian culture and history in a more western cosmopolitan package. There is a push to keep the Russian culture, while also pushing forward with a modern metropolis the whole world will envy. This comes with an impressive skyline, that continues to grow, and endless modernities, but with soviet nostalgia and atmosphere mixed in for good measure.

paramount a viacom company feature presentation

Mixed in with this grand western cosmopolitan atmosphere, is a strong national pride in Russia. This includes their famous leader, Vladimir Putin. Maybe no other place will you see a country’s leader more often. All over, from the pricey tourist shops to the underground walkway stalls, you’ll find goods with Putin’s likeness covering them. From t-shirts to magnets to Matryoshka dolls. There’s a strong national pride that can be seen around the city, which also extends to their leader. Moscow is many things. It’s East meets West, modernizations meets Soviet era, and a whole lot more.

What To Do For a Street Photography Break?:

Eat at a stolovaya.

Stolovayas are Russian cafeterias that became popular in the Soviet days. You grab a tray and walk down the line of freshly prepared local dishes, and select whatever you want from the chefs. They’re usually inexpensive and a much better value than restaurants, while giving you the opportunity to try from a wide selection of everyday Russian food. They’re also very tasty. I always include some borsch on my tray and go from there. The places themselves are all over Moscow and usually come with Soviet-era aesthetics to complete the experience.

Street Safety Score: 7

*As always, no place is completely safe! So when I talk about safety, I’m speaking in general comparison to other places. Always take precaution, be smart, observe your surroundings and trust your instincts anywhere you go!

Being the 2nd largest city in Europe with over 12 million people, you’re going to have your dangerous areas, but for the most part, it feels safe walking around. Russia is statistically higher in crime compared to most of Europe, but this generally doesn’t apply to tourists and visitors. Around the Red Square and surrounding city center, you should feel completely safe walking around. Pick pocketing can happen, but no more than other touristic places. I always explore Moscow freely without coming across too much to worry about. It’s a spread out city, though, so of course it matters where you are. Just use basic street smarts, know where you are and Moscow shouldn’t give you a problem. 

paramount a viacom company feature presentation

People’s Reaction Score: 7

Moscow is fast paced, big city life, which usually means people aren’t too concerned with you, or your camera. I don’t find people notice or pay much attention to me when I’m out taking photos in Moscow. For the most part, people just go about their day. You shouldn’t get too many looks or concern. But it can depend on the area you are in. The more you stick out, the more you might get noticed with suspicions. I’ve never had any problems in Moscow, or Russia, but just be careful who you’re taking a photo of if you get out of the city center. Other than that, it’s about average for reactions. 

paramount a viacom company feature presentation

Street Tips:

Learn the alphabet .

Much of Moscow, including the metro system, doesn’t use english. The Russian alphabet uses letters from the Cyrillic script, which if you aren’t familiar with it and don’t know the sounds, can be hard to decipher the words. This is most important for street names and metro stops when trying to get around. It can save confusion and make it easier getting around if you learn the basic alphabet. At the very least then, you can sound out the words to see which are similar in the english conversion, which can help matching them to maps. When out shooting street photography, getting around is as important as anything. So save yourself some time and frustration by learning the Russian Alphabet.

paramount a viacom company feature presentation

Use the metro

While Saint-Petersburg feels very walkable for a city its size, Moscow can feel very spread out, even for its bigger size. Outside of the Red Square area, you can have plenty of walking before getting anywhere very interesting, so you’ll need to take the metro a lot if you really want to explore the city. Maps are deceiving here too, it will always be further than it looks.

paramount a viacom company feature presentation

Another reason it’s less walkable than Saint-Petersburg is its completely different set-up. Moscow’s streets are mostly contstructed in rings with narrow, winding streets in-between. This is common with medieval city cities that used to be confined by walls, but you usually don’t have it in a city this massive. Saint-Petersburg has a more grid-like pattern that also uses the canals to help you know your way around. When it comes to navigating on foot in Moscow, it can be more difficult, so bring a map and take the metro when needed. It’s why Moscow’s metro carries more passengers per day than the London and Paris subways combined.

Explore other areas if you have time

Moscow is really big. While most people stay around the Red Square within the Boulevard Ring, there’s so much more to the city. I covered some other spots outside of this circle, but if you really want to see the city, you’ll need time. If you do have time, some other areas I’d check out first are Zamoskvarechye, along some of the south and western Moscow.

paramount a viacom company feature presentation

Inspiration:

For some more inspiration, you can look through the Street Photography of Moscow photographer Artem Zhitenev  and check out 33 of my photos taken in Moscow .

Conclusion:

Moscow’s name brings a certain mystique, but once you’re there it might bring a different atmosphere than you expect. It’s big and sprawling, but beautiful in many ways. It can feel like a European capital on a grand scale, but you can definitely find its Russian side in there.

paramount a viacom company feature presentation

The urban sprawl of Moscow can be intimidating, but give it enough time and you’ll be rewarded with plenty to discover. All with the world’s best metro system to take you around.

I hope this guide can help you start to experience some of what Moscow contains. So grab your camera and capture all that Moscow has to offer for Street Photography!

NEW YORK , Feb. 15, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- ViacomCBS today announced that the global media company will become Paramount Global (referred to as "Paramount"), effective February 16 , bringing together its leading portfolio of premium entertainment properties under a new parent company name.

ViacomCBS today announced that the global media company will become Paramount Global (referred to as “Paramount”), effective February 16, bringing together its leading portfolio of premium entertainment properties under a new parent company name.
