South Pacific Television (New Zealand)

TV 2 changed their name to South Pacific Television in 1976, just to change it back again on February 15, 1980 when it and TV One merged under Television New Zealand.

1st (and possibly only) Logo (1976-February 15, 1980)

Nickname: “I’m Not CBS!

Logo: We fade in to a giant red dot in the center of a black background, between a green dot and a blue dot and above the words “SOUTH PACIFIC TELEVISION”, in italics. The two small dots begin drawing what looks like an eye around the red dot, the green line being the inner line and the blue line being the outer.

FX/SFX: The lines drawing.

Cheesy Factor: A little more effort in the logo next time, please!

Music/Sounds: An upbeat horn,drum & violin tune.

Availability: Once again, hard to find.

Scare Factor: Low.
