1995–2002

On July 24 1995, CBS changed its call letters from WGPR to WWJ-TV after its sister radio station, which CBS has owned since 1989. The station was branded on-air as Detroit's 62 CBS after CBS acquired the station.

2002–2006

In 2002, WWJ-TV rebranded itself as CBS Detroit thereby dropping its analog channel number in the process due to the fact of being the only CBS O&O station operating one of the highest channel numbers on the dial.

2006–2008

On January 7, 2008, the station dropped its "CBS Detroit" moniker and rebranded using its call letters on-air, putting in line with its CBS O&O sister stations WBZ-TV, KDKA-TV, WCCO-TV, WJZ-TV and KPIX.

In late 2009, the "CBS Detroit" moniker was reinstated on a secondary basis replacing the slogan introduced in the 2008 rebranding, "Driven by Detroit".

6:00 A.M. open of First Forecast Mornings, a morning newscast produced in partnership with the Detroit Free Press. The program debuted in 2009, but was since cancelled in 2012.

2012–2013

On March 15, 2012, WWJ-TV rebranded itself as CBS 62, after a ten-year absence from using the channel 62 allocation for on-air branding use, putting the station in line with most of CBS' other owned-and-operated stations (except the four other CBS O&O's which continue to use their call letters as their on-air branding) and also to avoid confusion with sister station WWJ-AM.

2013–present

In 2013, WWJ added a blue box around its CBS 62 logo and also placed the call sign in Myriad Pro below the logo. This logo resembles that of Minneapolis-St. Paul-based sister station WCCO-TV.
