- Land of the free and home of the sometimes bad TV branding. Only sometimes.
I first conceived this idea back in June but had conflicts as to whether or not I should do this video or another one (which still may get done at some point...you'll see maybe).
Videos used here are credited to their owners; if the video was from a compilation or reuploaded, the original source will be tagged as unknown.
Enjoy, and be sure to watch some better station IDs.

trivia(?):
this is the first video to include the image of the logo so you know what the hell I'm talking about
there's profanity in this so if you are a child or have children around you, take caution if necessary
each countdown slide represents itself by the number of seconds it is on screen (#9 is on screen for 9 seconds, 3 is on for 3, etc.)
commercial break would have had additional footage but as it is it's not really a necessary addition to the video (as much as I enjoy it), so it...didn't get added. Lol.
music for each bit of text will be given soon. When is soon? I don't know. I'll try my best
Imagine if there's a top 10 best IDs from the great north.
What about music for the segues?
How
I like that VCI joke at the beginning
About the cereals:
VOCÊ É BRASILEIRO?
3:35 i cant believe no predicted among us
"Sorry, Research Triangle. You should've done more research on how to make a decent ID." The funniest joke about RTP i've heard in a while.
7:32 As a resident of the Hudson Valley (and a radio newsman in the region for 20+ years), I can confirm that *nothing* interesting ever happens here.
I'm a resident of Hudson Valley too!
7:41 And their slogan is literally "WORKING HARDER FOR YOU"
"WORKING HARDER FOR YOU" to make bad ids
They showed up in Albert Lea, that's a lot of work in and of itself
The UPN 32 ident seems pretty cool. I hear sound effects from Robotron 2084 in that ident.
I also heard a couple more from Dig-Dug and Pac-Man.
"WE ARE WORKING
HARD FOR YOU"
'...running all the way!'
“We are groot.”
“WE ARE HARD FOR YOU”
"we hard you"
(I'm late but who cares) Here is the translation of that cereal commercial:
"Brought to you by: Criminal Minds. The cereal that you can't eat it without having metalic milk. For 6 years or older kids."
Thanks
The concepts in some of these are actually pretty creative, but the animation made me go bleh (even more than the logos you included in your previous top ten list).
Also love the new feature you added
2:44 *Update* : Even Fox disgusted with WTTE so it runs away and they've got a small "network".
The network WTTE got was TBD. A channel for millennials that (almost) nobody watches.
Oh wow TBD has a show dedicated to epic fails. I can see why nobody watches it
@@RedGumdrop whenever i tune in to WTTE its just reruns of Fear Factor. The Fox stuff is on our ABC's subchannel. (this is in terms for a digital tv tuner. cable and satellites should still be the same)
I love how right after you roasted the Racine Channel 8 ident, you had a much better graphic with the number 8.
I love your sense of humor it’s like if Tim and Eric and off the air (the show on adult swim not the white noise end card) was blended in a blender
5:45 - AAAH, the turn of the millenium! The Internet was pretty much established as _the next big thing_ out there, and so many things had to be "Internet-inspired" to look mighty modern and up to date. Which also meant such things as tv programs constrained into a browser window and book covers that looked like webpages. Here in Italy, the weather forecast for a news show on Canale 5 was partially enclosed in an Internet Explorer 4 window, while the opening for the regional and national newscasts at Rai 3 even featured a 56k modem connecting sound.
5:12 This looks pretty nice tho. The colors and the fonts really compliment each other in a good way.
I lost my shit at the Criminal Minds cereal LMAO
Another great video. I think WBRZ and Connecticut Public Television stood out as the strangest/maybe worst ones to me, which is surprising given that they're both honourable mentions. I've also noticed your transitions and "commercial" breaks are getting even better in quality. Keep up the good work!
Thanks for including #3, that's how I discovered ABC's early 80s promo campaigns.
If that's "working harder for you", I'd hate to see what it looked like when they weren't working hard?
8:39 NO WAY, Alan Parsons Project! First track on their 1978 album "Pyramid."
You mean "Voyager"
@@Super71_lpc Yes. I made that comment after listening to the album for the first time. I wasn't super familiar with the track listing yet.
7:48. A-ha! So thats where Local 58 is located! I knew it!!!!
8:29 That face terrifies me.
The KTSF logo was actually used until 2016, it's now slightly different.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:KTSF_Channel_26_logo.png
3:35 OH GOD IT'S FOLLOWING ME WHEREVER I GO
HELP
1:22 so now most of the people tuning in are just looking for the goddamn viacom logos
this is great
i'm dumb, this is a mytv affiliate, not metv.
I honestly love the KFDF-TV and the KTSF ones for the music that I just happen to love (the first is the Alan Parsons Project’s Voyager, and the second is Change’s The End).
Another fantastic video, No.!
The music for KFDF is alright, but KTSF...I guess it's an acquired taste
No. Yeah, if you’re not into Italian disco like I am, it’s not for you. Lol.
6:19 As of 2022 they are now independent. Happened quite recently actually.
Eh channel 8 Racine isn’t that bad.I actually kinda like it. WACY-TV I’m also okay with,but just enough to say that it doesn’t deserve to be top 10’d, but in the bad station ids..yes for WACY but Channel 8 Racine is actually pretty good [in my opinion.]
8:29 *JEREMA SMILE*
*WHEN THE IMPOSTER IS SUS*
3:47 lol 😆. That jingle and logo! I just have to laugh about it.
#6 music is from WOR-TV (now WWOR-TV), 1981
#2 SFX is the tail end of WGBH's station IDs from 2002 to 2020?
ALMOST MADE IT is Harlech Television or later HTV (but visuals here obviously based on the earlier Harlech logo) but low pitched
I don't know the rest…
4:30 is the funniest commercial i saw.
10. Audio end is decent thanks to the catchy jingle, even if they kinda stole it from another more famous independent in WPHL 17 in Philadelphia (coincidentally also a MyTV affiliate today.) However, the visual end is the opposite, WPHL's attempt was pretty great (go look it up), while this one was farted out in PowerPoint during someone's lunch break. Add a cheap font and there ya go.
9. Acid trip time again? Oh dear.
Early CGI? More like early eyesore. The effects of the flashing and background was probably as painful to watch as it was to make. Someone tried to be 'cutting edge' and shit by making an 8 with just two circles. This isn't cutting edge, it's cheesy edge.
8. There was something similar to this used by Houston's Fox Owned and Operated station KRIV 26. Sort of a montage of many versions of the Fox logo flashing around. Now take that, remove all Fox logos (since we kinda have two networks on here) oh, and make everything look like this logo takes place in hell (fitting for Columbus). Oh, and we aren't network owned, so throw that big budget crap out the window. Low budget is the way of the future!
7. See this would be much better if this was from about a decade earlier. Feels more like an 80's fit than a fit for the turn of the millennium... They must have lost this deep in their computer and didn't take the time to actually search for it for... a fucking decade... Lazy asses.
(oh, and about Ion Plus, it was formerly Ion Life, lifestyle shit and whatever, until it was rebranded this year into Ion Plus, yep... syndication hell.)
6. CGI is a thing that probably shouldn't be accessed by everyone. An example is this, plain, boring, lazy... oh and this great thing known as GENERIC FONT... However, the jingle is actually kinda catchy, I will admit.
5. Cheap and rather boring animation with another one of those amazing 'Generic Font' things. The jingle also feels kinda cheesy but not enough to ruin it as a whole. The visuals on the other hand convert this to the dump it is. Makes the much more simplistic replacement introduced in 2002 look like a work of art (even if it really wasn't since the only thing that kinda got better was the animation.)
4. Decent idea on paper, trash in reality. A generic 90's computer theme! How original! The sound effects are a migraine, as well as random. Dig-Dug anyone? Decent classic arcade game, but it's sound effects will destroy you over time.
3. Can't get much more of a downward spiral than this. This would work as a generic station slide, not as a fucking ID. The many smaller squares are unnecessary, the text animation is lazy and unoriginal, everything here is kinda pointless. Hell, this slide might be what sent them down the rabbit hole switching to Fox in 95 ("The BIG switch" was a dark time), Going independent in 2011 (okay, well, more of the owners fault, Fox wanted them to pay for their affiliation kinda like how a cable channel runs, owner says fuck you and pulls the affiliation from multiple stations, blah blah nobody cares) and lucking into an affiliation with... The CW... of all networks... but I digress.
2. Yo I thought I uninstalled PowerPoint. Who got it back?!
Cheap PowerPoint fly ins with awful generic music. This one is so lacking of personality it hurts like hell.
1. Someone clearly procrastinated here. This looks like it was made in about a minute tops. The station hated it but didn't actually want to pay anyone to make something decent so they just stuck with it. They stuck with the most boring... most pointless... most fucking cheesy piece of horse shit excuse for a station slide when they could have instead went for literally ANYTHING ELSE! Be glad you're in the middle of nowhere, if this was a decent sized market you'd be bankrupt and would have gone dark a LONG time ago!
HOLY SHIT THEY STOLE THE JINGLE FROM MY FAVORITE STATION LOL
I love your sense of humour
I got some news for ya, man: WACY-TV ended its affiliation with MyNetworkTV six days ago and returned to its former status as an independent station.
Also, I'm not sure if you're aware, but the signal for the Fox affiliation of WTTE moved to WSYX-DT2, thus leaving WTTE affiliated with Sinclair-owned subchannel network TBD.
The only saving grace for KHIZ ident is Charlie Van Dyke's voiceover. :)
F O U R T Y E I G H T
Kimt: we're working harder for you
They tails working harder for them
Channel 8 is now an affiliate of PBS.
WTTE lost the FOX affiliate - they are now a TBD affiliate, with FOX 28 moving to WSYX-DT.3.
3:35 ion is sussy
4:38
Me, a catalonian guy: yo what the
Anyway nice video
the number 3, 2,1 slides would make really good commercial bumpers
Ayy you're alive.
6:58 the funny part about this part is that the logo that the audio comes from was from WGBH, and it was during the part where the orange number 2 was lit up, so technically he remade a logo without remaking a logo
1:23 do I hear what I think it is?
DO NOT TELL ME THAT IS NOT THE HAPPY WHEELS FINISH SOUND!
I remember the KHIZ 64 ID from when I did uploaded some commercials from a station news broadcast from 2002, and tbh this logo seems very low budget for 1996. This station (at the time) was TBN, which (while I'm unsure how much money they got back then) from what I know rarely gets talked about today compared to other stations (I'm not religious, so maybe its because of that); so in many ways this seems very high budget... for the time and for the place. However, this logo looks more like the late 1980s/early 1990s rather than a mid 1990s-early 2000's logo.
"Time to tune in to the Cable Provider TH-cam on my TV and watch No."
This is a really nice list! I hate these lazy IDs so bad though.
You know I'm the only TH-camr who lives in Evansville, Indiana
6:56 WGBH 2 Boston Parody (well at least for the sound)
There are some slogans that were bad, or at worst tone-deaf.
Chief prize goes to WOR-TV (Channel 9) in New York, in 1976-77, for their slogan "Adult Entertainment At Its Best." They had meant to distinguish themselves, in terms of the fare offered, for the more kiddie-oriented programming offered at the time by indies WNEW-TV (Channel 5) and WPIX (Channel 11) - but the tone-deafness came from the location of their studios - right at the heart of Times Square, when that area's reputation was at its seediest, and known for a different type of "adult[sic] entertainment."
OMG! My chemistry teacher always uses "Stop Talking" shut the entire class up! Thank you for mentioning the Stop Talking!!!!
5:45 Dig Dug sounds
4:30 Trazido a você por: Criminal Minds. O cereal que você não pode comer sem ter leite metálico. Para crianças de 6 anos ou mais.
4:18 commercial break ?????????? 4:30.
Ha ha ha HA HA HA HA HA HA HA 4:30
The cereal sounded trademark infringing
Sorry if I comment late but can you do another video with style like this video? I want to see this style in your Top 10 best American station ID

The KTSF 26 one would’ve been fine in the 1970s. Still not too bad I guess. But Jim Varney in an intro? Vern, how could you?
7:41 How is this a Station ID?
How do you get videos of logos without having to screen capture it?
Just use a YT convert to mp4/mp3 site.
4:44 You really made this?
Also, did you make any music in the entire 10-minute video? (not just the clip from 1989)
ngl the jingle for 10 sounds like it could've been made in 1966 as well
As of 2024,
1. WGGT is still WMYV.
2. Channel 8 Racine is still gone, DUH.
3. WTTE moved to TBD.
4. KHIZ moved to Bounce.

WACY is branded as My NEW 32 for North East Wisconsin. But yeah... My Network TV sucks. How the hell is it still a thing?
Talk about how MyTV is the graveyard of quality
I guess that's why the CBS-owned MyNetworkTV affiliates WSBK-TV 38 in Boston, Massachusetts and WBFS-TV 33 in Miami, Florida converted back to independent stations,
probably to distance themselves from the failed network, and also to become alternate sources for CBS programming...
UPN 32 is cool.
WGGT-TV (now WMYV) was an UPN station with the call letters of WUPN and it is owned by Sinclair Broadcast Group under WUPN License, LLC. And their ID when they were WGGT-TV was not good but if someone could improve it then it will be good for the station in North Carolina.
7:41 That one reminds me of The Video Bancorp 1990 and KUCB 1983 logos at the same time.
2:03 music?
3:35 Nice easter egg!
The KHIZ logo was first used in 1991.
And,
It’s still outdated :(
What are the statuses of the channels featured in this video as of now?
WTTE - moved to "TBD", ATSC 3.0 network. Fox moved to another subchannel
KHIZ - after losing Ion Plus, it bounced around a bunch of smaller networks, it's now Bounce
All the other ones are the same as they were in 2019
nice list
@4:44 How nice of you to include the TH-camr "Steve1989MREInfo" as part of TV4's lineup. Please let us know which MRE was eating, thanks!
2017 meal kit maybe, it's close to this lineup video.
2 things, I live close enough to get WTTE 28, and I never knew something like this existed, and also Hesperia sounds like some sort of disease.
P.S, ion Plus is a lifestyle channel owned by Ion Television
7:15 This looks like it’s from a Nintendo DS.
In 1995, TZA changed its name to RNN and made a less lazier ID with the same music as the TZA logo.
yay new video
@9:00: KTSF still uses a version of that "26" today.
Do top 30 funniest TV idents from fanmade countries(Sporcleland,Laipon East,Qqqqqqqqqqy,etc.)
When me reacting to the video and watch the “looks what’s coming to your screen on TV4”
MmmMMMmmmmMMmmm
No. Entertainment channel photo is the Dr. Phil face
If you think those IDs are really bad for their time, well take a look at one of the news themes station KLAX used: th-cam.com/video/Z6zTGBfG7vQ/w-d-xo.html They literally just used the "Broadcast News" theme from iMovie, and I've also heard it on a shortwave station once, too.
Catalonia television Channel tree parody
7:11 what music is that even lol
8:40 - The background music is literally "Voyager" by the Alan Parsons Project, now that's lazy.
9:04 KTSF was multilingual, right?
Yeah. English and Japanese I think, or some other Eastern Asian language.
The ion Network in itself is elusive. Ion Plus is from what I can answer 10, only available in America's smaller markets that are not the top 100. My market area is the Charlotte dma, number 14.
WTVW losses their affliction because of the other station switching.
4:47 The 1999 Television Boliviana ID be like:
1:47 I like your Galician roots
CW22 and myRDC better be on here
Channel 8 Racine had a cute jingle, though.

Wow , is list now
Cabarrus county in the Piedmont in North Carolina
As of 2021, WTTE dropped their Fox affiliation and is now affiliated with TBD with the Fox affiliation being moved to WSYX (ABC affiliate) 6.3.
A lot of stations are doing that, networks like TBD and Dabl are trying to get more viewership by swapping affiliates with main channels
@@NoEntertainment I'm going to call WAGA and tell them to be a duoploy with WGCl
@@NoEntertainment WACY-TV 32 in Green Bay, Wisconsin dropped MyNetworkTV and is independent for the first time since 1994.
They even changed their logo to read "TV 32" (in the same font as sister station WGBA-TV "NBC 26") inside a dark blue circle...
3:31 So.... KHIZ (now KILM) is now a GRIT affiliate. If you don't know what that is.... it's basically Spike TV.
Now it's a Bounce TV affliate I swear what is up with all these nobody networks
