Background

ABC Signature Studios was established in 2013 to separate ABC productions airing on other networks from ABC Studios. On August 10, 2020, as part of a television division restructuring, Disney combined ABC Signature Studios and ABC Studios into one entity that took the Signature name. The Signature name has been phased in on former Studios productions since the restructuring.

On October 1, 2024, Disney announced that ABC Signature would be folded into 20th Television as part of their corporate reorganization efforts.

Logo (October 28, 2014-October 2024)

Visuals: Same as the 2013 ABC Studios logo, except the word "signature" replaces "studios".

Variants:

On some shows, the logo doesn't zoom in.
Since 2021, starting with Home Economics, the logo zooms out.
On Guerrilla, the logo is in-credit and shares the screen with other logos.
On Bad Sisters, a print version on a black background is used.
On an airing of Criminal Minds: Evolution on November 24, 2022, an image of the print logo was used, fully scaled up to the edges of the screen.^[1]

Technique: Computer animation by Loyalkaspar.

Audio:

2014-2020: A guitar version of the ABC Studios music. Like the 2013 ABC Studios logo, this music is composed by Fil Eisler.
2017-2024: The music from the 2013 ABC Studios logo. This would later become the main music variant starting in 2020.

Audio Variants:

Sometimes, the logo is silent.
Since 2017, like the 2013 ABC Studios logo, long versions of the theme exist.
On some shows, the first 2 notes are omitted.
Network airings use a generic theme and a voiceover.
Sometimes, the ending theme of the show would be used instead.

Availability:

It was originally seen only on its shows that this company produced for cable networks and streaming services such as Benched, Blood & Oil, All About the Washingtons, Dead of Summer, Marvel's Runaways, Godfather of Harlem and High Fidelity, among others.
Starting in 2020, shows that were originally produced by ABC Studios now carry this logo.
It also appeared on new and future shows that this company also produced from 2020 onwards.
Like the ABC Studios logo, this does not appear on original ABC airings unless the show is co-produced by another studio, like Entertainment One and later Lionsgate Television on The Rookie, or Sony Pictures Television Studios on The Good Doctor.
This logo or the CBS Studios logo never appeared on later episodes of The Amazing Race, even though the two companies produced that show.
Despite ABC's rebrand in 2021, this logo remained in use prior to the company's shuttering. It will most likely continue to be used for a brief time.
