But however will the beloved Touchstone logo return...Fox 21 Television Studios => Touchstone Television (the Touchstone brand is back, baby!)
Considering the logo is the same as its predecessor at the moment, I'm afraid not.But however will the beloved Touchstone logo return...

At the very least. It should've been at reintroduced with the revival.But they still didn’t bring the iconic thunderbolt strike against the orb logo back. Which is lame.
The TV production labels of
Disney Television Studios
have been rebranded.
20th Century Fox Television => 20th Television
(the Fox has left the hole)
ABC Studios => ABC Signature
(the Alphabet broadcast and cable entities have merged into a single shingle)
Fox 21 Television Studios => Touchstone Television (the Touchstone brand is back, baby!)
No. Fox is it's own company and owns the rights to the name, and the licensing agreement between them and Disney (for 20th Century Fox, Fox Searchlight, etc.) came to an end.SO Fox name now ceases to exist?
What should have happened:
20th Century Fox Television => 20th Century Television
ABC Studios => ABC Productions
Fox 21 Television Studios and ABC Signature => Combined as ABC 21 Signature
Agree on 20th Century TV.
Disagree on ABC Productions (dull & old-fashioned) and ABC 21 Signature (surreal, extra & impractical).

Fair enough.Disney considered having divisions of DTS with "Studios" in their name to be wonky.
I had initially said ABC Studios should keep its name, but after reading the Deadline article, I decided ABC Productions would be sufficient.
In choosing my name for the combined ABC Signature and Fox 21, I wanted to keep elements of both names. The Fox name obviously would be jettisoned. So, putting 21 between ABC and Signature would have allowed people to figure that the company was a merger of ABC Signature and Fox 21. The Fox 21 logo would have been the basis for ABC 21 Signature's, so that it didn't need to be a variant of ABC Productions.
My proposal also would have entailed the 20th Television distribution arm being folded into the main Disney syndication arm. There's no need to operate two distributors, CBS realized that in 2007 when they merged CBS Paramount Domestic Television (formerly just Paramount Domestic Television) and King World Productions into CBS Television Distribution. King World and PDT had been allowed to co-operate in the first Viacom era because both were highly-respected names in syndication.
But as operating costs went up, Viacom decided to consolidate its TV production and distribution operations. The international distribution arms merged in 2004, and that same year, CBS Productions and Paramount Network TV began operating together but initially keeping their separate names. After The 4400 concluded its first season, Viacom Productions was merged into PNT. Big Ticket effectively stopped operating in 2004 after its remaining network shows were cancelled, its name and logo was still used for copyright purposes over the years for several syndicated courtroom shows.
After the CBS/Viacom split, Spelling Television effectively folded (its last series ended in 2007), while CBS Productions and PNT were officially combined into what became CBS Television Studios, and the distribution arms were collapsed into one as well.
So, there is much precedent for my desire to have Disney operate a single network TV production arm (using different names/logos depending on what network the show is on), a single cable/streaming TV production arm, and a single TV distribution arm.
Um, I know that.Um, the 20th Television logo/name (sans Fox) already existed LONG
Death of physical media is soon. That is obvious now.Disney is ending 4K transfers of Fox titles.
Disney Ceases 4K UHD Production on Catalog Titles, Including Fox Library
In an era of media where the proliferation of streaming services means an unprecedented selection of films available at the click of a button, this ease of access also has a more undesirable outcome. Companies can control your viewing library, removing titles at a whim from your subscription...thefilmstage.com
