1st Logo (1980-1987)

Logo: We see a colorful neon outline of an owl, moving around a bit in its place. "GERMAN GARCIA Y GARCIA" appears below this, as well as "GEGAR TELEVISION" in a larger font.
Technique: Possibly early computer animation.
Music/Sounds: A happy-sounding theme with an announcer.
Availability: Extinct.
2nd Logo (1987-1990)
.png)
Logo: A redesigned image of the owl before, along with text below "Gegar", which flashes, is seen. German Garcia y Garcia is written below this.
Technique: Cel animation.
Music/Sounds: A short drum-based fanfare.
Availability: Extinct.
Legacy: You may not like the slightly weird look of the owl, but otherwise this logo is pretty clean.
3rd Logo (1990-1991)
_(Credit_-_Javier_A_Valderrama).png)
Logo: The same owl from before is seen (but more vividly colored). Lasers shoot out of its eyes, and the owl flashes. GERMAN GARCIA Y GARCIA is written below in a italic green font.
Technique: Computer animation.
Music/Sounds: A dark synth note held throughout which slowly turns into an ascending sounder. An announcer plays over this.
Availability: Extinct.
