Tv ark: Relaunch and beyond

Good on TVARK for quickly posting the new Sky1 and C5 idents, it's not something you're renowned for, to be honest.
And Sky Arts, Sky Living (the previous two sets of idents are still missing though!), Sky Atlantic, and Sky2.

Challenge TV launched on Freeview!

I imagine most of the stuff TVS made (which wasn't inherited by Meridian) is. Disney simply are not interested in it - I suppose maybe they don't want to be associated with it? In which case you'd have thought they'd sell it en masse for a peppercorn?
There might be hope yet. Disney obtained the TVS archive by buying Fox Family in 2001. At the same time, they also acquired Power Rangers, as Fox Family owned Saban Entertainment, it's production company. Last year, the Power Rangers franchise got sold back to Haim Saban and his new Saban Brands holding company (the show is due on Nickelodeon/Nicktoons soon, according to Sky magazine). So who knows, maybe Disney will realise that PR wasn't the only decent thing they got from buying Fox Family, and will start selling off some of the TVS content too.

Challenge TV launched on Freeview!

Challenge TV is pretty awful now, no where near as good as say 1995 when it revamped from the then Family Channel.
The rebrand was on February 1st 1997.

Eurosport gets new logo

Its only a bit different.
Hey, if it ain't broke, why fix it? Eurosport's logo has always been a circle of stars with the word Eurosport written on it. Evolution is always better than revolution.

bbc.co.uk

It looks like some sites will be mothballed, whilst some will be taken offline and replaced with a 'tombstone' page (eg. http://www.bbc.co.uk/intheknow/ ).
lol, it says to check the Internet Archive, which produces no results.

MTV

It's all change next week, Sky 3 is the next casualty. It's gone! Becoming Pick TV! What are Sky at!
That doesn't happen until the end of Feb. It seems the new Sky 3 logo will be used for all of four weeks!

Sky's Branding

Just found the temporary Sky 3 logo here, amongst several other logos which will soon be outdated:
http://www1.sky.com/freepass/

They could at least be consistent!
Yeah, they use a new Sky 3 logo but the old Sky 1 one? Very odd.
First ad for Sky Living can be seen here (although oddly it doesn't show the logo at the end),

http://tv.sky.com/sky-living

Presumably a dedicated website for Sky Living will launch soon.
It's already become a Page Not Found. Confused

Oh dear. It's been that way for a few hours now.

The Channel 5 Thread

DE4DJ posted:
At the end of the last series of The Gadget Show they said they'd be back on February 14th a few surprises. May have a connection to that.
Sounds as if the show will get a new look too.

The Fluffy Club

Odd, the TV schedules said Fluffy Club. Toonattik was axed but it's branding was kept... yet you say they used a Mini CITV ident (which would mean they didn't do with Fluffy Club what they did with Toonattik)? Sounds as if it was axed but they didn't tell the TV listings publishers in time.

Thanks JAS84 minor mistake corrected. Site updates continuing on the Region Sections soon.


Looks like that mistake reappeared. Confused
