National Educational Television idents
1st ID
The original ident for National Educational Television was used from November 1952 to October 1962. It was a simple still shot of the network's logo -- the letters "NET" with a strangely-slanted roof coming out of the top-right of the "T" and hanging over the "N" and the "E," with a small antenna sticking out over the "N. " There are also strange "stars" all over the screen. Meanwhile, an announcer (believed by some to be Edward R. Murrow) says, "This is National Educational Television. Edward R Murrow (born Egbert Roscoe Murrow; April 25 1908 &ndash April 27 1965) was an American journalist "
2nd ID
For the television static, fuzz screen logo identification for NET, the 2nd logo from 1955, the male announcer proclaimed: "This is N-E-T, The National Educational Television Network".
3rd ID
This identity is rather rare, and only known to exist in black and white. It was used from 1966 to 1968. First, gray dots appear and disappear rapidly. A white circle is drawn around the dots and several curved vertical and horizontal lines cover the circle to create an image of a globe. A small live-action fire appears in the globe. Several white lines appear under the globe to make the letters "NET". The globe ultimately winds up on top of the "T". The music playing in the background during the animation is industrious-sounding. When the animation is complete, an announcer says, "This is N-E-T, the National Educational Television network. "
4th ID
Introduced in 1968, this was National Educational Television's best known ID.
A red block sets down from the left side of the screen, then, a yellow block rises up from the center of the screen and a blue block sets down from the right side of the screen. Afterwards, the blocks turn into the letters "N-E-T" before coming closer to each other. Then a man's voice would say "This is N-E-T, the National Educational Television network. " As he says this, the words 'National Educational Television' appears above the NET logo and bends to form a roof with an antenna on it, which connects the T.
The color version followed the same principle, except that the announcer (believed to be longtime ABC staff announcer Fred Foy) would say "This is N-E-T, the Public Television Network. The American Broadcasting Company ( ABC) is an American Television network. Fred Foy (born March 27, 1921 in Detroit Michigan) is an American actor and voice specialist " As this is said, a blue line (which replaced the words above "N-E-T") was drawn above the letters, and was bent to form its usual position. This was used from 1969 until the forced merger with New York station WNDT-TV in October 1970, officially disbanding the network. The City of New York WNET, channel 13 is a television station licensed to Newark New Jersey. Both logos were used on Sesame Street and Mr. Rogers Neighborhood (with the latter, the logo was superimposed into a building within the model set at the beginning and end of each program and still remained in reruns well into the 80s). Mister Rogers' Neighborhood or Mister Rogers is an American Children's television series that was created and hosted by
The music was a choppy synth composed by Eric Siday, who also did the synth for the Screen Gems ID of the period (referred to by some as the "S from Hell") and for CBS's color programming ID, which sounds somewhat similar. Eric Siday (November 1 1905 near London, England UK –March 25 1976 in New York, New York USA was a composer and musician Screen Gems is an American subsidiary company of Sony Pictures Entertainment 's Columbia TriStar Motion Picture Group that has served several different

Days of Our Lives is an American Soap opera, which has aired nearly every weekday since November 8 1965 on the NBC network in the United " This ident served the network for its first year. The picture was simply a still with the words PUBLIC, BROADCASTING, and SERVICE, set in Helvetica and displayed in red, yellow, and blue, respectively, all center-justified. Helvetica is the name of a widely used Sans-serif Typeface developed in 1957 by Swiss Typeface designer Max Miedinger. During this ident's time, it served as a filler for the NET ident, and both were used until the second PBS ident was introduced.
2nd ident
In the October 4, 1971, PBS introduced the long-running "people" ident, which is still recognizable today. Year 1971 ( MCMLXXI) was a Common year starting on Friday (link will display full calendar of the 1971 Gregorian calendar. This features cel-animated tricolor letters that assemble onscreen to form the logo, similarly to other production logos from that era such as those from MTM Enterprises. MTM Enterprises was an independent production company established in 1969 by Mary Tyler Moore and her then-husband Grant Tinker to produce The
This logo starts with a blue 'P' on the upper-mid screen, which takes on the shape of a face in profile and moves left. Soon after, an orange 'B' and then a green 'S' appear, with dots punched out to form the letters. In tandem with the letters appearing, the words "PUBLIC BROADCASTING SERVICE" appear individually at the bottom of the screen, left-justified, in tandem with the initials appearing.
This ident, created by Paul Alan Levi, used a bold Moog-synthesized score which began with a rapidly descending, telephone-like scale, followed by four warm, heavily synthesized notes. The term Moog (ˈmoʊg as in 'vogue' Synthesizer can refer to any number of Analog synthesizers designed by Dr This was the first ident with no announcer.
The logo was used from all PBS programming until the third PBS ident debuted in 1984. However, it appeared on reruns for several years afterwards, as well as on present-day DVD sets such as Sesame Street: Old School and Best of The Electric Company. Sesame Street Old School is the title of a series of DVD releases produced by Sesame Workshop. The Electric Company is an educational American Children's television series which was produced by the Children's Television Workshop
3rd ident
On October 1, 1984, the logo introduced a signature with a logotype and graphic symbol. Events 331 BC - Alexander the Great defeats Darius III of Persia in the Battle of Gaugamela. Year 1984 ( MCMLXXXIV) was a Leap year starting on Sunday (link displays the 1984 Gregorian calendar) The PBS (Public Broadcasting Service) signature was developed by Chermayeff & Geismar [1]. Chermayeff & Geismar is a prominent New York-based graphic design firm The new mark was developed to overcome a serious problem with the prior identity, which focused solely on the initials. Using a stylized profile of the human face, which also recalls the initial P in the prior mark, it repeats the profile three times, playfully putting the "public" in public television.
The letters PBS below the symbol are set in a slab serif typeface. The music (composed by Jonathan Elias) accompanying this logo is a majestic piano chord accompanied by some pizzicato tones, then a softer version of the piano chord. Jonathan Elias (born 1956 is an American Composer and Record producer, known for his movie soundtracks production for several pop and rock acts and his Pizzicato (ˌpɪtsɪˈkɑːtoʊ is a playing technique that involves plucking the strings of a String instrument. Again, there is no announcer.
- A special version of the ident, with the P-heads in a dark purple color, was used at the end of the first episode of Square One TV in the late 80s, where the P head and letters multiplied and went into the distance with the vocals "And on, and on, and on. Square One Television (sometimes referred to as Square One) was a Children 's Television show produced by the Children's Television . . " This was to tie in with the song Infinity, which was featured in that particular episode. This logo was often annoying to viewers.
- Another version was made, where the letters PBS were in yellow, instead of white, so as to enhance the color quality of the identity.
- A 3-dimensional version has been seen, but it is very rare.
4th ident
The logo was remodeled to its fourth format on October 2, 1989; the first to implement computer-generated imagery. Events 1187 - Siege of Jerusalem: Saladin captures Jerusalem after 88 years of Crusader rule Year 1989 ( MCMLXXXIX) was a Common year starting on Sunday (link displays 1989 Gregorian calendar) Computer animation Computer-generated imagery (also known as CGI) is the application of the field of Computer graphics or more specifically 3D computer graphics In the ident, the P-head first used in the previous logo appears by rotating from the left edge of the screen, leaving a trail, then filling the screen. After the logo trail finishes rotating, a group of five lines streak across the bottom of the screen leaving behind the PBS text in very small letters on the lower-left corner. The music consists of a bell string, followed by actor Liam Neeson's voice saying "This is PBS". William John "Liam" Neeson OBE (born June 7, 1952) is an Irish Actor.
- In an alternate version of the ident, the P-head appears just by fading in with the PBS text. No lines streak across the screen; therefore it is a still version of the ident. The same music, as in the ident's original version, is used. Once again, Neeson says "This is PBS".
5th ident
Introduced March 2, 1992, the fifth PBS identity might appear on prints from local PBS stations, but is otherwise rather rare. Events 986 - Louis V becomes King of the Franks. 1127 - Assassination of Charles the Good The animated variant has a glass circle appearing and disappearing with faces of various people before being consumed by the eye of the P-head zooming out. The bouncing ball animation (below consists of these 6 frames Glass in the common sense refers to a Hard, Brittle, transparent Solid, such as that used for Windows many The P-head is orange in an orange environment similar to the pink environment of the alternate, and the familiar "PBS" text spins in, white and in typewriter. Installation art uses sculptural materials and other media to modify the way a particular space is experienced A typewriter is a mechanical or Electromechanical device with a set of "keys" that when pressed cause characters to be printed on a medium Perhaps in a backlash against the proliferation of computer-generated animated IDs, this version was created traditionally on film. The P-head is frosted glass, the PBS text is rotated into place by rods beneath a rostrum. A non-animated variant appeared on a few shows, such as Triumph of the Nerds. The music, composed by Peter Fish, is jazzy, with a female voice singing in the background. The announcer this time, Maximilian Schell, says "This is P-B-S". Maximilian Schell (born December 8, 1930) is an Academy Award -winning Austrian Actor. On the non-animated variant seen on Triumph of the Nerds, the announcer is different (the still variant's announcer being Liam Neeson). Triumph of the Nerds The Rise of Accidental Empires (1996 is a Documentary film written and hosted by Robert X William John "Liam" Neeson OBE (born June 7, 1952) is an Irish Actor. Additionally, this logo was the last to be seen on children's' shows as well as adult programming (although the next ident occasionally made appearances on the 1996 television shows Arthur and Adventures From The Book of Virtues); after in August of 1993, PBS Kids programs utilized special ident of their own.

These colors change to blue and green, respectively, while the "PBS" text fades in below and fades to yellow. A female announcer, Lauren Bacall, says "This is P-B-S". She is the only announcer to reprise her job for the following logo (7th logo). The logo dropped in 1998.

PBS Kids idents

PBS Kids (often styled all-caps as "PBS KIDS" is the umbrella brand for Children's programming aired by the Public Broadcasting Service in the United The Agency for Instructional Technology (AIT is a Non-profit organization in the United States that produces sells and distributes educational and Starting that year, however, a new ident was commissioned specifically for children's programming that consisted of three P-heads (affectionately called P pals by the PBS staff), one of them blue, another one orange, and the last one green, complete with appendages drawn as a cartoon. The word cartoon has various meanings based on several very different forms of Visual art and Illustration. (In actuality, the P-heads are in different colors that change throughout the ident and eventually stop on blue, orange, and green, respectively. ) The P-heads dance and sing "This is P-B-S! Hooh!" on this ident, then stop when a dog (also shaped as a P-head) walks by the lower portion of the screen and barks "Arf!" and in the mid/late 90 gives the leader a balloon with E/I (Educational/Instructional) in it. At the same time, the blue P-head adlibs and his red hat flies off of his head for a moment, then drops back on his head. The "PBS" text appears in black at lower left, and the music is a rock/pop tune. This was used on programming such as "Barney & Friends", "Lamb Chop's Play-Along", "Arthur", "Adventures from the Book of Virtues", Mr. Rogers Neighborhood", "Reading Rainbow", "Bill Nye, the Science Guy", "Kratts' Creatures", "Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego?", "Where in Time is Carmen Sandiego?", "Zoom", "Wallace And Gromit", "Groundling Marsh", "The Puzzle Place", "Sesame Street", "Teletubbies", "The Magic School Bus", "Noddy", "Theodore Tugboat", "Wimzie's House", "Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends", "Shining Time Station", and many others.

After that the logo was at PTV Park, this logo started with the camera panning down from the sky down into PTV Park, in the background, we hear two kids' voices saying, "Hi, you're in PTV Park on. . . ". We then zoom in on the PBS Kids 1993 logo playing in a short version.
There was also a "surprise!" variant featuring the P pals from the standard ident changing colors (no blue is used in this ident), and they all have O-shaped mouths (not like the standard ident, which only used one O-shaped mouth for the blue P pal, and that was when he adlibs) for the entire time.

PBS Kids circle logo idents
The identity for PBS children's' programs was revised on May 16, 1999, coinciding with the establishment of a 24-hour PBS Kids feed, and made even more dissimilar from the regular ident as well. Events 1204 - Baldwin IX Count of Flanders is crowned as the first Emperor of the Latin Empire. Year 1999 ( MCMXCIX) was a Common year starting on Friday (link will display full 1999 Gregorian calendar) The animation begins with a child character (either a girl named Dot, or a boy named Dash) with stylized features and green skin taking part in an activity or simply running into view. When the character's face is close up, a circle zooms out around the head while the letters "PBS" appear above in a thought bubble. Speech balloons (also speech bubbles, dialogue balloons, or word balloons) are a graphic convention used most commonly in Comic books strips The completed circle is set against an animated background of vertical lines. At the end, there is a sung voiceover saying "Doink! P-B-S Kids!" There are several variations of this ident.
PBS Kids GO! idents
Prior to 2004, all PBS Kids programs used the same series idents. Starting in the fall of that year, however, another series of new idents were commissioned for use on programming with a focus on telling children to be active, which consists of a blocks motif and several kids doing several forms of exercise. At the end, the PBS Kids GO! logo appears, with a simple voiceover at the end, a boy saying "GO!". Therefore, this makes this the first PBS ident that had a voiceover not mentioning PBS. As with other current PBS idents, there are several variations.
PBS Kids Sprout idents
PBS Kids Sprout got its first ident in 2005, which consists of a green flower with the words PBS Kids written on it and the word "sprout" under it in children's handwriting. PBS KIDS Sprout (sometimes
Miss Lori and Hooper
Within this block, there are many different idents after each program. They do not include the PBS Kids boy or girl as of September 1999, except for the last few seconds when Dash is shown in the PBS Kids logo. Some include still pictures of real children, but do occasionally move a little bit. These idents usually have a general theme, such as dinosaurs, bees, a picnic, or someone taking pictures with a camera.
PBS Home Video idents
PBS HV Idents usually represents past tv logos
When PBS Home Video was distributed by PBS and Pacific Arts (1990-1994) or Turner Entertainment (1994-2004) (now part of Time Warner), the first distinctive ident used on PBS Home Video titles was the large 3-D glass P-head from the 1989 PBS television ident, on the center of the screen, first seen for PBS Home Video in 1990. Turner Entertainment Company Inc is an American media company founded by Ted Turner. Time Warner Inc ( is the world's largest media and entertainment conglomerate, headquartered in New York City. Initially, a cloudy sky pattern fills the ident against a black background, which fades to a blue P-head against a cloudy sky background. An announcer says "The following presentation is from PBS Home Video" afterward, the screen fades out and cuts to any of the above post-1984 idents. The ident (minus the announcer) would repeat itself at the end of the videotape. A classical tune sets the mood. The large head and colorful lines are paying a tribute to the 1989 logo.
In 1998, the ident was revised to: a blue circle, a green circle, and a red circle (each containing a P-head). The circles merge together and turn purple once they touch and turn black when "PBS HOME VIDEO" ("PBS DVD" on DVD releases) fades in. A much more mellow variant of the 1998 bumper played over the logo, which is why this represents the 98 bumper.
Coinciding with PBS Home Video's distribution changing to Paramount in 2004, a new PBS ident was created: It begins on an ethereal blue/purple/red CGI background, then the PBS logo appears within a circle with "Be more" on the left and "PBS" on the right with "Home Video" on the bottom. Paramount Pictures Corporation is an American motion picture production and Distribution company, based in Hollywood California. A new age classical tune is the jingle. The colors and cgi in the background aren't unlike the 1992 ID.
