WNDT

(1962-1970)

Nicknames: "Owl of Athena", "WNDT Owl"

Logo: On a static black background, we see the words "CHANNEL 13" and "WNDT" on the left, and an abstract owl on the right, separated by a large slash.

Variant: A white background version exists. Here, the owl is larger and placed to the left of the slash, while the right has a large "13" and "WNDT" is located below it.

Trivia: The owl is currently used as the favicon for WNET's station (not corporate) website.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: Unknown. The variant uses the closing theme of the show.

Availability: Extinct. Only used as a local ID.

Editor's Note: The abstract owl's design looks a tad creepy.

WNET/Thirteen

1st Logo

(1975-February 1984)

2nd Logo

(February 1984-1988)

Logo: On a green background the text is Only the Best Thirteen WNET NEWARK, N.J. below

FX/SFX: None

Music/Sounds: Just the announcer.

Availlabity: Extinct.

Editor's Note: None.

3rd Logo

(1988-July 21, 1995)

Turn That Camera Off (September 6, 1988-1995)

Nickname: "Keeping What Matters In Sight" "Abstract Thirteen"

Logo: On a greenish-gray background, we see the words "ThiRtEEn WNET NEWARK, NJ" in white on a transparent rectangle protruding from the right. The "ThiRtEEn" is made up of some abstract, combined letter forms upper and lower-case all in its corporate font and the other text is simply in Optima. Later, the bottom text fades to "Keeping what matters in sight" in a compressed white font aligned to the left. Several rectangles appear in the background.

FX/SFX: The text fading.

Music/Sounds: A relaxing 12-note piano tune with a few string and flute riffs thrown in.

Availability: Extinct. It was used only as a local ID.

Editor's Note: None.

Courtesy (1993-October 23, 1999)

Nickname: "Abstract Thirteen II"

Logo: On a blue background reminiscent of TV static, we see the "ThiRtEEn" from the 8th logo, the "wnet" from the 9th logo, and a bullet wipe-in.

Variant: There is a version on a solid black background.

FX/SFX: The wipe-in effect. The black background variant is still.

Music/Sounds: An announcer says "Local broadcast of the news hour is made possible courtesy of Thirteen WNET." The variant uses the audio of the clip that plays before this logo.

Availability: Extinct. Was only used as a local ID.

Editor's Note: None.

Sugar Rush (July 21, 1995-October 1, 1999)

Nickname: "Abstract Thirteen III"

Logo: Tinted with the red color scheme from the Public TV For East Tennessee ident, we see various CGI/live-action-related clips (such as a train moving towards us, the window sill from the 8th PBS logo, a compass, a giant white/sea green "N" swinging in front of a running leopard, etc.) as the "ThiRtEEn" from the 8th and 10th logos zooms in very slowly towards us. As all this happens, a violet banner with "WNET NEWARK NJ" (which later changes to "NEW YORK NY") briefly appears below at the lower-right.

Variants: There were at least a couple of variants which use the aforementioned clips:

Arts and Entertainment: Known to use the short version.
Explore: Known to use the short version.
Depth, Dialogue, Discussion: Known to use the short version.
History: Known to use both the long and short versions.

FX/SFX: TBA.

Music/Sounds: A pretty new-age tune with a piano, flutes and violins. For the variants, same as the 1995 PBS bumper variants; the short versions have different voiceovers.

Explore: "The world is waiting; explore it with Thirteen."
Depth, Dialogue, Discussion: "Thirteen, when you want the whole story." or "Thirteen, making sense of it all."
History: "Thirteen, where history comes to life."

Availability: Extinct. Was only used as a station ID.

Editor's Note: None.
