Visuals: On a navy blue background, there is a segmented black box with number "59" zooming in to the center. Then, numbers "5" and "9" in white, both simutaneously fly to the right and the left of the screen, and flip in to form the number "59" and fill in the number "59" in the box. At the same time as the numbers "5" and "9" flip in to form the "59" number is words "Stereo" and "Vision" in purple also fly to the top right and the top left of the screen, and they also flip in above the number "59" to form the word "StereoVision". Finally, the letters "KMSG-TV" in white appear one by one at the top of the screen, and the word "SANGER-FRESNO" also in white, wipes in below.

Variants: There's a short variant which has the logo cutting the beginning part.

Technique: 2D computer animation.

Audio: A catchy synth-pop tune, with a female chorus singing: "StereoVision, KMSG-TV, Sanger-Fresno!".
