Extant
An astronaut who returns from thirteen months alone in orbit pregnant, produced by Steven Spielberg.
One opening sequence is catalogued for Extant, covering season 1.
It arrived on CBS in 2014, when Candid Camera, Murphy Brown and Late Show with David Letterman were also on the network.

A screen cracking, and that is the whole thing. Eighteen seconds of glitch and a fracture spreading across black glass — an anthology refusing to introduce anything, because each episode is a different show.
