Buena Vista Television was the production/distribution arm of Walt Disney Television, established in 1985. Originally, it distributed Walt Disney Television and Touchstone Television shows and the Buena Vista film library (such as Disney, Touchstone, Hollywood, Miramax and Dimension titles) on TV. Later, it also took on the libraries of ABC (in 1996) and Saban (in 2002). It also distributed other Disney-owned libraries. When Disney retired the "Buena Vista" brand in 2007, BVTV was re-branded as "Disney-ABC Domestic Television", with the logo making its debut in September.
Logo: On a shady indigo blue background, we see the familiar segmented castle (as seen in the 1985 Walt Disney Pictures logo), but shaded (from top to bottom) red, orange, and yellow. The white arch is already there and it sparkles from left to right (the opposite way it is from the movie logo). Below it, the text reading "Buena Vista Television".
Trivia:
Variants:
Technique: CGI.
Music/Sounds: A series of ascending pings. Sometimes we hear the closing theme of the show, or none.
Availability: Rare.
Logo: On a black background, the text "Buena Vista Television" flies up from the bottom of the screen with a red chyron trail (like the Telepictures "Rollercoaster" logo), then zooms out from inside the castle and centers itself under the same castle from the previous logo. A spark draws the arc, but this time from left to right. As the arc draws, the flags appear one by one on top of the castle. After the logo finishes, a single spark appears from left to right on the arc.
Variants:
Technique: CGI by Studio Productions (now Flip Your Lid Animation).
Music/Sounds: Ping music, but in most cases, it's silent or the finishing of the end title theme from any show plays over the logo. But on reruns of Bill Nye the Science Guy from this era that were rerun after the 4th logo debuted, the music from that logo was used.
Availability: Extremely rare.
Logo: Same as the 1991 Walt Disney Television logo, but after a few seconds it changes to "Distributed By Buena Vista Television".
Technique: Traditional cel animation.
Music/Sounds: None.
Availability: Extinct.
Logo: We see an overhead view of a blue earth globe on a black space background. Three comets cross each other's paths one by one as they circle the globe and then appear from underneath, streaking past the globe diagonally in unison from the bottom left to the upper right. As the earth zooms away, the background then fades to dark blue space background filled with stars boxed in on a black background. As we zoom out from the point, the earth gradually rotates with a comet moving upward while the background orbits. Then three comets can be seen streaking past the globe in an diagonal direction from the bottom left corner toward the upper right corner, and gradually zoom away into the black background. The comets fly past the globe, either burning blade-cut imprints in the process throughout the entire box or (starting on May 17, 1997) trailing off as they fly past, leaving a frozen motion mark just barely behind the border of the globe. The text BUENA VISTA TELEVISION is wiped in from left to right by way of a fancy gradual dissolve. As the comets fly past the globe, the space background fades to a yellow/purple gradient, with a yellow dot that appears to be the sun appearing on the surface of the globe. The gradient color also appears within the text.
Trivia:
Variants:
Technique: CGI by Pittard Sullivan.
Music/Sounds: A 5-note horn theme accompanied by chimes, followed by a 7-note horn fanfare. This was composed by Sam Winans.
Music/Sounds Variants:
Availability: Extremely rare for the earlier version, but common for the later version.
Legacy: The "comets" are a very significant change from the previous "castle" logos, which clearly identified the division with Disney.
Logo: Same concept as before, but the planet Neptune replaces the globe on a spiffier Milky Way background, and we start from a different position. On a black space background, we see three comets appear at the same time. We pan up to Neptune and pan to its upper right, where the comets fly to the back. Three comets streak from the left and freeze, and the screen turns white with the logo of the comets and globe in space in a box at the top, and the "BUENA VISTA TELEVISION" text, in gray, fades in and zooms out to take its place under the logo.
Trivia: Unlike the previous logo, this one was animated at 60 frames per second.
Variants:
Technique: Same as the previous logo.
Music/Sounds: A re-orchestrated version of the last theme. Again, long, short and medium-length versions exist.
Music/Sounds Variant: The Tony Danza Show uses the previous theme.
Availability: Uncommon, as it was only used for three years.
