Line 32:
* On local reruns of ''South Park'', TBS's airings of ''Yes, Dear'' and the split-screen credits on Spike's airings of ''Cops'', the logo appears as usual without animation.
* There is also a B&W variant of this logo for classic Fox shows and movies in B&W which appears on, inexplicably, some early episodes of ''Family Guy'' (these episodes sometimes have the logo fade out), such as "Love Thy Trophy" and "If I'm Dyin', I'm Lyin'," on Adult Swim and TBS. A B&W variant of the 2008 logo was spotted on the film ''It Happens Every Spring'' on TCM.
*An in-credit variant seen on ''Sherman Oaks'' shows the bylineless logo inside a box and animating with "DISTRIBUTED BY" appearing above. The closing theme of the show is heard. On the ultra short-lived sitcom ''Dudley'', the text "in association with" fades in and fades out below.
*On season 11 of ''Family Feud'' (with Steve Harvey), season 3 of ''The Wendy Williams Show'', and some episodes of the syndicated ''Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?'', the byline fades in early while the logo zooms out.
*A still version is seen on some syndicated reruns of ''South Park''. On some shows in 2008, the 4:3 version of the 2008 20th Television logo was stretched to fill a 16:9 TV or preserved with sidebars. On season 3 of ''The Wendy Williams Show'', the widescreen version was squashed or stretched to fill a 4:3 TV.
Line 43:
*On some prints of ''The Simpsons'' episodes between 1992 and 1994, the 1992 logo fades in near the end of the zoom out, and then fades out a few seconds later. It's similar in a way to the 1994/5 variant with the byline, barring the fade in at the start. Channel 4's print of the episode "Homer the Heretic" features this variation.
'''FX/SFX:''' The logo zooming out and the clouds and searchlights moving. On local reruns of ''South Park'' and TBS reruns of ''Yes, Dear'' with split-screen credits, it's a still logo.
'''Music/Sounds:''' Here are the main versions:
Line 85:
* Oddly, many ''Hill Street Blues'' reruns on Heroes & Icons use prints where this is seen at the end alone, plastering the [[MTM Enterprises]] logo. As such, it cuts in abruptly and interrupts the end theme.
*On current prints (digital, TV, etc...) of ''Home Alone 4'', the 2008 version plasters the Fox Television Studios logo.
*Since 20th Century Fox Television was dissolved on August 10, 2020, the bylineless logo can be first seen on the new seasons of ''The Simpsons'' (using the 2008 jingle), ''Bless the Harts'' (using the 2015 TCFTV jingle), ''Bob's Burgers'' (using the 2007 TCFTV jingle) and ''Family Guy'' (using the 1997 TCFTV jingle) on Fox, replacing the 2013 TCFTV logo. Despite the Fox airings of ''America's Most Wanted'' used a generic theme for this logo (with News Corporation byline), this time the network airings of ''Family Guy'' only used it for this bylineless logo, as well as the upcoming shows.
'''Editor's Note:''' A marvelous CGI re-imagining of the classic Fox logo, which predated the actual [[20th Century Studios|20th Century Fox]] CGI logo by two years. However, this also garnered a lot of resentment by many due to this consistently plastering over old logos.

Previously under Fox Television Stations, 20th Television (spelled as "Twentieth Television") was the television syndication arm of The Walt Disney Company's 20th Century Fox Television that was launched in 1989 originally as an in-name-only brand of TCFTV known as "Twentieth Television Corporation" (and structurally officialized in 1995). 20th Television also produces their own programs and distributes them across the nation. Sometime in 2020, it was merged into Disney Media Distribution, and the former name was applied to TCFTV on August 10, 2020 as part of a corporate restructuring.
Nicknames: "The Searchlights", "CGI Searchlights", "Zooming Tower", "The Tower of Tepidity", "The 20th Tower", "Tower of Annoyance"
Logo: We see a close-up of the familiar Fox structure, but now it's in CGI and reads "20th TELEVISION". A steel line appears below and the area that would normally be reserved for "FOX" is replaced by a simple gold rectangle. The logo zooms out to the familiar Fox logo distance.
Trivia: This logo was also used to represent 20th Century Fox Television from September 18, 1992-April 16, 1995, replacing the 1981-1993 "20th Television Fox" logo.
Byline: Starting on September 4, 1994 with The Simpsons episode "Bart of Darkness", the byline "A NEWS CORPORATION COMPANY" faded in below the logo. Most programs used the bylineless version after late August 2013.
Variants:
FX/SFX: The logo zooming out and the clouds and searchlights moving. On local reruns of South Park and TBS reruns of Yes, Dear with split-screen credits, it's a still logo.
Music/Sounds: Here are the main versions:
Music/Sounds Variants:
Availability: Extremely common.
Editor's Note: A marvelous CGI re-imagining of the classic Fox logo, which predated the actual 20th Century Fox CGI logo by two years. However, this also garnered a lot of resentment by many due to this consistently plastering over old logos.
