Visuals: The logo begins with a blue ball with a smooth, rectangular shape carved into it floating through the letters in the word "Showtime" in a gold color scheme. Once the ball goes through the hole in the O, the camera zooms out to show the Showtime text, with the word "It's" written above in cursive. It's unknown where or what happens to the ball afterward due to half of the logo being cut. But it's rumored to go to the right side of the Showtime text (as seen in another variation of the logo).

Trivia: This TV screen symbol was confirmed to be copied from Rede Globo at the time, although its designer (Hans Donner) and the creator of Showtime's symbol reached an agreement for the usage for their logo during a dinner meeting.

Variant: Part of the logo is used but cut out when in goes through the O in Showtime, then cuts to the ball entering the end of the S, and flying through a museum with what appears to be clips from movies. The variant ends in the same result as the main logo.

Technique: CGI by Image West.

Audio: Unknown. Some existing footage of the logo has part of the TOP Video Production logo.

Availability: The only known footage is from a documentary from 1986, and footage of the logo was also used in the Home Game logo. However, it's unknown if this ident was ever used.

Legacy: This logo has gained fame in the community for its rarity. As mentioned in the Availability tab above, it's also notorious for being used in the Home Game logo.
