'''Nicknames:''' "The Cheap Shield II", "The 2D Shield of Staleness III"

'''Logo:''' We see the shield on a sky blue background with a slight lens flare effect, and the banner shines. The byline is also absent and as a result, the logo takes up more space on the screen.

'''Variants:'''
* In ''BingoLotto'' at Sweden, a copyright stamp "TV4 AB 2016" in white is tacked on the logo.
* This logo has an in-credit variant.
* Sometimes, the in-credit logo has the text "Distributed by Warner Bros. International TV Production" underneath in the Impact font.


'''FX/SFX:''' The shield zooming out, shining and the lens flare moving.

'''Availability:''' Common.
<u>Logo:</u> On a black background, a WB shield, with "INTERNATIONAL TELEVISION PRODUCTION" written across it, fades in. The text "Distributed by Warner Bros. International TV Production" is written underneath in Impact font. It fades out a few seconds later.
* The regular logo can be spotted on ''The Bachelor New Zealand'', ''The Bachelor Australia'', ''Game of Games'' in Australian countries, as well as a few other shows.
* The in-credit variant has appeared on RTÉ's ''My Best Shot'' in Ireland, ''Suden hetki'' in Finland, and a few other shows.


'''Editor's Note:''' None.
<u>Variant:</u> On ''The Bachelor New Zealand'' and ''The Bachelor Australia'', we see the shield on a sky blue background with a slight lens flare effect, and the banner shines. The byline is also absent and as a result, the logo takes up more space on the screen.

<u>Availability:</u> No longer current. It appeared on RTÉ's ''My Best Shot'' in Ireland. That show is produced by Vision Independent Productions, which recently signed a deal with Warner Bros., so this logo will probably become more common over time.

'''Nicknames:''' "Television WB Shield", "The Shield of Staleness"
<u>Editor's Note:</u> Overall, this logo is just lazier than the last one: the use of the Impact font, the poorly-written byline, and overall design. If there's any consolation, it's that the shield design was fixed for this logo, but in the end, the whole result looks like it was made in a matter of minutes.


'''Logo:''' Same as the 14th [[Warner Bros. Television]] logo, but the banner's text has been replaced to "INTERNATIONAL TELEVISION PRODUCTION".

'''FX/SFX:''' Same as the 14th WBTV logo.

'''Music/Sounds:''' The 2003 WBTV theme.
