International Presentation

Yeah, but they probably want to keep Three as a generic brand?

Just like "Nove" (Nine) in Italy, which is a generalist channel, although being a bit poor at it

Discovery own a number of main terrestrial channels across the Nordics and Poland (as in their equivalents of ITV/C4) and all of them have kept their branding and names so I'd be surprised if they ditched the Three name.

Portugal's RTP2 introduced a set of new artist-made idents in April earlier this year.

There are 4 in the set with each artist making their own version of the RTP2 logo, and it includes some stunning new music by the Portuguese Symphony Orchestra and the Sao Carlos National Theatre Choir.
This may seem too artistic for a mainstream channel but, BBC One, start taking notes.
Enjoy!

Artist 1: Alice Geirinhas


Artist 2: José Pedro Croft


Artist 3: Tomás Cunha Ferreira


Artist 4: Luís Lázaro Matos

A new year and a new name for ABC in Australia as it becomes ABC TV as their sister channel ABC Comedy is now ABC TV Plus.
Here's a look at the new presentation.

Why didn't they just call it ABC1, and ABC2?

Oh wait, they already did that.

Meanwhile, yesterday Mediaset in Italy, with Canale 5, has scraped the bottom of the barrel by showing Big Brother VIP local edition at NYE for the first time, Inc. announcements of latest death of celebrities like Maradona, which were unknown to them..

Audience was at an all time low , well deserved

ABC Comedy is now ABC TV Plus
Here's a look at the launch and presentation.

So ABC TV Plus is what happens if you basically replaced BBC3 with a BBC Comedy Channel (aka Dave), then replace that with a channel which is basically a hybrid of BBC3 and BBC4. Think the promo graphics look really out of place alongside trailers for Attenborough shows.

Wasn't convinced by the ABC TV Plus rebrand and not sure about rebranding ABC as ABC TV too - though get why they've opted to do it, although the idents make more sense as ABC TV than "ABC Yours" as they previously had.

ABC News still looks great though and that promo is really good.

speaking of aussie tv: anyone know this lil’ fella?

Not really presentation related but BBC Canada closed on New Year’s Eve - BBC are to launch BBC Select in the US and Canada

Does seem odd to have BritBox and BBC Select in the same market unless the latter is more factual oriented and airing stuff BritBox wouldn’t touch with a barge pole

the more you beeb the moe you get, that's what i say
