On February 16, 2008, a new logo was launched on the U.S. network as part of a rebranding effort. While the trademark "H" was kept, the triangle shape on the left acts as a play button for animation and flyouts during commercials and shows. On March 20, 2008, as part of that same rebranding effort, the History Channel dropped "The" and "Channel" from its name to become simply "History".<ref>International Herald Tribune [http://www.iht.com/articles/ap/2008/03/20/arts/TV-History-Channel.php Television's The History Channel Drops 'The' and 'Channel' from Its Name, Keeps History] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080804054616/http://www.iht.com/articles/ap/2008/03/20/arts/TV-History-Channel.php |date=August 4, 2008 }} March 20, 2008</ref>

In 2012, half of A&E would be purchased by [[The Walt Disney Company]] and the other half by [[Hearst Communications]], also putting History under their joint ownership.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Lakritz |first=Talia |title=14 companies you didn't realize Disney owns |url=https://www.businessinsider.com/companies-disney-owns |access-date=2024-02-17 |website=Business Insider |language=en-US |archive-date=February 16, 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240216050818/https://www.businessinsider.com/companies-disney-owns |url-status=live }}</ref>

In 2015, the channel would undergo another rebranding, this time by Joseph Kiely. The slogan of this rebranding was "Make Your Mark.” The logo was slightly changed, but retained the golden letter 'H' that had become synonymous with the channel.<ref>{{Cite web |title=History Channel global rebrand & manifesto |url=https://kielydesign.com/portfolio/history-channel-rebrand-manifesto/ |access-date=2024-04-25 |website=KIELY DESIGN |language=en-US |archive-date=February 17, 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240217210059/https://kielydesign.com/portfolio/history-channel-rebrand-manifesto/ |url-status=live }}</ref>

The "History 100" documentary initiative was announced in March 2018 that would produce 100 documentaries covering major events and notable figures from last 100 years.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Littleton |first1=Cynthia |title=History Sets 'History 100' Docu Film Series, Evel Knievel Stunt Special |url=https://variety.com/2018/tv/news/history-100-evel-knievel-documentary-films-werner-herzog-1202727441/ |access-date=May 27, 2020 |work=Variety |date=March 15, 2018 |language=en |archive-date=July 16, 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200716210418/https://variety.com/2018/tv/news/history-100-evel-knievel-documentary-films-werner-herzog-1202727441/ |url-status=live }}</ref>

On December 7, 2021, History received a major rebrand for the first time since February 16, 2008. The logo still kept the golden letter 'H' that had been used since its launch in 1995.
