This ident takes me back to my childhood. That used to scare me when I was a little kid. I would just imagine a glass monster trying to pull me down and give me a nightmare every night.
Omg, this logo is on one of my homemade tapes that records "Barney and Friends". My dad recorded Barney for me back in 1993 (when I was 2 or 3 years old) and I still have that tape after 16 years and it's still showing clearly! Anyway, this is my favorite PBS logo! So peaceful. I love the music =)
When I was a kids, I'd make my mom rent Barney videos. The purple dude was cool and all, but what I was really interested in was this ident at the end of every episode. Thanks for posting!
The last note of this logo with the announcer is similar to the "1812 Overture" ending from "Kidsongs: Ride the Rollercoaster (August 1990)". That Kidsongs episode gives me the weird dreams when I was a kid.
The music from THIS PBS ID touches me so deeply inside just like the music of Viacom International's 'V of Doom' (their first logo) that both just tear me up and make me cry harder than for any other production logos...and they still do.
This one scared the crap out of me when I was little!!! I was so freaking scared of it I'd have to run from the room before it showed. Then they changed it to that kid one and I liked it.
I remember seeing this. I think I was around 7. Very classic indeed! :-)

I remember the old logo from the 1970's thru the 1980's, but this one is rather pretty.......kind of reminds me of water, and the ripple effect.

This is the one I grew up on. And yell at me if you will, but I have conclusive evidence that it was replaced for 1993 with the orange one.
Jnelson09 4 years ago
Not mine. It keeps on displaying the 1999-present PBS Kids logo. They did that because previously, the show supported the 1993 PBS Kids ident.

randomchannel134 4 years ago
No, because few 1989 shows had the split profile (1984), and shows between 1993-1999 had newer idents.

Yeah. You probably saw it on reruns.

The show "Ethics in America" still shows the 1984 "split identity" in my PBS station.
