Logo: On a black background, a blue line and a pink line zoom in along with the word “TELEVISION”. When they stop, they immediately fade out, and two 2's, one facing backwards (think the old KUTV logo), slide in from the left and right and stop in the middle. Two more 2's slide in to the center and un-tilt themselves when the background becomes a black-blue-white gradient color with red and blue spheres on the bottom on a jet black floor. “TELEVISION” then re-appears on top. The "2" also appears to have lights on it.

Background

TV 2 was launched on June 30, 1975, and was renamed to South Pacific Television the next year. It would later regain the TV 2 name when it and TV One merged under Television New Zealand on February 15, 1980.


1st Logo (1980-1985)


Logo: We see the blue flag from the TVNZ logo at the time unfolding on the same space background, only instead of the Union Jack and four red/white stars, it has a red/white "Two" on it. The flag zooms out to the bottom, and then bright lights flash behind it, forming four white stars in the same position as on New Zealand's flag which zoom in, and more lights flash before the entire logo glows brightly.

FX/SFX: The flag unfolding and the flashing lights.

Music/Sounds: A shorter version of the 1980 TVNZ jingle.

Editor's Note: None.


2nd Logo (1985-1988)


Nickname: "Colored Balls"

Logo: On a black background, a blue line and a red line zoom in along with the word "TELEVISION". When they stop, they immediately fade out, and two "2"s, one facing backwards, slide in from the left and right and stop in the middle. Two more "2"s, one in blue and one in red, slide in towards the center and rotate to their normal position when the background becomes a black-blue-white gradient color with red and blue spheres on the bottom on a jet black floor. "TELEVISION" then re-appears on top. The "2" also appears to have lights on it.
