90s American Station IDs From Every Television Market (that I could find)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 июл 2024
- Just awhile before July 4th, a collection of IDs, segments from news/channel promos, etc. from most of the 210 television markets in the United States in the 1990s, continuing off of when I tried to find IDs from every country in the world.
Let's make this easier to navigate:
0:00 Intro because apparently video chapters have to start with 0:00 which is dumb
0:41 209-150 (North Platte, NE to Mason City, IA)
3:38 149-100 (Panama City, FL to Greenville, NC)
7:12 99-50 (Bristol, VA to New Orleans, LA)
11:33 49-20 (Greensboro, NC to Sacramento, CA)
14:35 19-1 (Cleveland, OH to New York City)
Some of these are boring. Some of them are fine. Some are good. Smallest market to largest. Starts off cheap, gradually gets better.
Hope you enjoy the video, hopefully I can do an 80s version of this eventually!
I do not own any of the IDs in this video. j

RIP, Alex Trebek.
I like seeing old TV station idents... It brings back memories that I never had to begin with.
7:07 That sounds familiar!
*a new tv, because you broke the old one*
4:05. The most patriotic logo seizure ever.
3:50 That cutoff Tho
here is what it is supposed to say: *409: it cleans the grease, it cleans the glass*
@$$ 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ass
2:41 I didn't know Barney worked at ABC lol
12:17 black or white is 90s hip hop baby and nice.
my new profile pic is planete juniors
@@NelvanaFan1971 ok but i don't remember anyone asking tho
5:09 one of the best ID's from a small station EVER
It’s actually more of a template, WXXA-TV and KOKI used a similar version.
7:08 “Wake up, everyone!”
8:32 I love how you give zero craps about poor reception because that one from 1982 was horrible like you said lol
14:10 I can smell the rarest Fox fanfare here.
Old station IDs have a very cheesy beauty to them.
12:14 NO WAVY-TV 10??? I love that logo!!!
Starts with an awesome UPN Id and ends with a kickass NBC ID! Props to the amazing video my friend!
I’m very happy that not only did Cleveland/Akron, OH (my local area) make it to #19, but that it basically beat every other area in the state. That’s why Northeast Ohio is Best Ohio.
The station at 8:02, in September 1993, began using a logo that was introduced by German broadcast station RTL II at its launch in March 1993. The logo had to be withdrawn by RTL II in April 1996 as part of a settlement, and KGAN was allowed to retain the logo, which was ultimately withdraw at the end of the 2003-04 season.
The one from KCBS-TV right near the end feels so much hype. That song brings out the adrenaline in you; loved it.
1:49 Now XHLAR-TDT, part of the Las Estrellas network of Mexico.
13:47 Where the digital switchover started... twice (now with ATSC 3.0).
Interesting how XHLAR was a fox affiliate whilst being a Mexican station, guess they were a border blaster then.
7:08 Now I know where that "GRAND PRIZE AAAAGGHHH" music came from.
There is another one, WCGV's ident, from 1995. Look it up.
can you give me a link?

12:55 is my area, WVTV is now a CW affiliate. They brought back the "Super 18" logo for a little bit a few years ago, but with revitalized font and everything.
6:05 *Bugs Bunny* "sounds like Inner Sanctum..."
Welcome back no
This is an interesting video on tv station idents
Great work
Good stuff as always
I love this!!!
3:37 KIMT
We are working harder for you
Nice to see they upgraded to multi-color text and background, but still no motion graphics.

He even includes upn! Nice
11:03 this is easily the best of the bunch. A dated feel you dont really see anymore reminiscent of old 80s MTV Music videos. I really like the faux crayon aesthetic idk why vaporwave never coopted it
Well, I wasn't expecting this.
3:36 Well, at least they improved.
You found all you could find. Great job
wow, all that static on K11TW's ID really drives in the rural nothingness of North Platte
superb video as always No.
It's also a translator station, not a full-fledged local station.
KIIT
And got to remain on for a while after the digital coversion as a LP station.
I see you used the WMGT ID from my channel. All good :) Glad to see something other than the CBS affiliate of Macon being used :P
14:44 is my favourite station. even i wasn't lived there or the US.
WBBJ's logo sounds like a car about to crash.
Edit: why is this trying to blow up
MasonDoezStuff What timecode is it
It's rank 177, 2:12.

Idc
10:44 Oh hey, there’s my local ABC station!
No wonder you put Channel 10 in Sacramento as 20/210. I'm so impressed! (And yes, I'm from Sacramento.)
KUTV is now a CBS station and KSL 5 is NBC. Also, KXTV is ABC 10 and is part owned by Tegna, who also runs WFAA 8ABC in DFW Metroplex.
Yay a new upload!
2:48 is my market. I remember passing by the WICZ-TV studios and they still had a sign with that 40 design, even after they changed their logo years later. Probably money problems.
I just saw it on Google Street View when i looked up the studios. There definitely possibly was an NBC Logo back when that ID was used
It was used when the station just transitioned to Fox. Not sure if they still used the NBC sign after the transition, but at least they did change it afterwards.
14:05 Steel City's ABC, WTAE 4!
2:31 KVHP was then the default Fox affiliate for the Beaumont/Port Arthur market, and pictured here are the Veterans Memorial and Rainbow Bridges near Port Arthur. The Rainbow Bridge bears some resemblance to the I-10 bridge in Lake Charles.
9:37 I miss those old-time TV announcers who sound like they've been chainsmoking cigarettes since childhood.
EDIT: He returns for a sequel at 13:40, too! And I know I heard this guy in my local market (Buffalo) as well.
That is Charlie Van Dyke.
Fun fact: WCPX in Orlando (CBS 6, 14:40) is now WKMG. It’s also Central Florida’s oldest station.
Lcd101 And the WCPX call sign is with ION (formerly pax tv) 38 in Chicago (Chicago Pax Tv)
It was WCPX in 1994/95 it didn't change until WKMG 98/99
I’m was born in 2002 and I love these idents!
WGBC is radiotvphononut's local station.
KELO is Oddity Archive's current CBS station, and KCNC was his previous CBS station. He moved to Sioux Falls, SD a couple of years ago.
KELO WAS ENCORE'S CURRENT CBS STATION
Its actually WGN
1:09 my station has been bouncing between 200 and 201 for years. I think we’re at 200 right now.
Noice job! I kinda like these old stations ids except deez bad identifications.
4:47 Looks like you found my area!
Does anyone know if the Spirit of [insert region name here]" were all owned by the same company, or is it common usage like the "7" logo which seems to be used on a lot of Channel 7 stations across the country?
Love this! But your using todays TVarket numbers and not what they were in the 90s, which looked so different
WCSH-TV (NBC) channel 6 at the 8:50 mark. Their branding now is NewsCenter Maine. (Same with sister station WLBZ-TV channel 2 of Bangor.)
Some of these areas it's hard to figure out where a market begins and ends. I know that between Springfield, MA & Hartford, CT there is 2 different NBC stations, 2 different ABC stations (Springfield & New Haven), but only 1 CBS & Fox Stations. The 2 cities are only about 30 miles apart, but the Springfield stations serve western Mass. while the Hartford stations serve most of CT. Back in the 1980s Southern New Hampshire was it's own market with an ABC station in Manchester, CBS station in Concord, and NBC station in Lebanon. The ABC station is still there, but the CBS station is no more and the NBC station is a satellite from Plattsburgh, NY. Southern NH market is now considered to be part of the Boston market.
Many of those idents still had cheesy jingles that were popular in the 80's, and many other idents (especially FOX affiliates) had their network's branding/jingles.
7:07 holy crap that logo is having a seizure
After watching that WACH-TV ID.
hello cooper.
sup
@@ymcooper hello
16:17 is my market. WGN became the WB in 1995 then the CW in 2006 then became independent again in 2016
WGN, KTLA, WTVS, WPIX and TBS were considered U.S. superstations in my area and thus were pay T.V. stations, which is why I'm somewhat familiar with them in despite me in not living anywhere *_near_* the areas in which they originally broadcast from in location. (I live on the west coast of Canada, so...)
2:12 That ID is total ass! Why they think tire screeches were good sound effects to use in an ID?!
11:13 Get ready for your first turkey of two of the year, WIVB! Oh ,and some football as well.
As for KELO they were not lying when saying "KELO land STATIONS" as that channel carried the ENTIRE STATE of South Dakota vs 2 repeaters to get it out to the Badlands of South Dakota and would actually especially in the news weather forecast offer a 7 day forecast for all 3 markets the station and the repeaters were HQ'ed in.
Makes you wonder, who's the 1 step lower than North Platte NE :)
Probably a pirate station broadcasting illegally offshore? 😆
I really wish that American T.V. station ID's KCPQ, KVOS, KCTS-9 and KOMO were on here. 😞
3:13 EFFING BUBBLES!
Yeah, I Apologize for that
8:11 Signed on in 1948 as WHEN-TV 8.
One missing: Jonesboro, Arkansas, which seems to have separated from the Memphis market.
13:07 and the old channel 3 Hartford ID: Al Terzi was last with WTIC-TV (FOX) channel 61 of Hartford, involved with a public affairs show. His co-anchor, Denise D'Ascenzo, passed away on December 7, 2019. She was 61 years old. As for the ID used, I do NOT remember it at all!
It was sad to see Denise die. Her co-anchor at the time couldn’t share the news of Denise’s passing without crying. That is No.’s local market, BTW.
11:19 - WMC-TV5 Memphis
2:12 Speed Limit: 25
K11TW now KIIT is a Fox affiliate now, also WJZ is a CBS O&O under ViacomCBS but WJZ now uses the CBS mandate graphics package but still continues to be call WJZ 13 and not CBS 13 like other CBS stations owned by ViacomCBS
3:50 OMG KOSA-TV!!!!! I'M FROM MIDLAND, TX!!!!!
Ass.
14:12. Isn't KDNL now the ABC affiliate in St. Louis? I know Channel 2 (KTVI) was at one time, and I believe that as of now (July 10, 2021) KTVI is Fox.
Some of these channels have been or are available to Canadians via cable or satellite and via HD Antenna in border communities KIRO, WGN, WUHF, WABI, WLBZ, WIVB
4:12. IMHO, an average to decent logo with some cool music. BTW that logo was used as early as 1993.
I can only imagine Four (Battle for BFB)’s reaction to the WNBC ident.
My birthplace 😊 9:13
I like the one with wnft 47 with Michael Jackson's song in the background
funny how the station you chose for my market once had a news report featuring danganronpa cosplayers
im not joking
What I learnt from this video: Don't watch fox if you have epilepsy
Do one with TV stations from the 2000's
2:46 KTAB REPRESENT!
I know this video is 3 years old, but at 8:55, WAAY-31 was and still is an ABC affiliate for Huntsville, AL not CBS. The CBS affiliate for Huntsville, AL back in 1990's and still is today is WHNT-19. I should know as I live there currently and have been for at least 23 years.
6:20 thats my market
Wow, Omaha has a much smaller television market than I expected, I thought it would be in the top 20.
Also, WHERE ARE THE PBS ONES?
PBS is a gray area because many affiliates are statewide and don't use station IDs
@@NoEntertainment I watched the pbs shows on Lpb and Aetn
Corpus Christi surprised me, I expected to be in the top 100, specifically the top 50. I blame the rural area around it.
@@NoEntertainment But you included PBS in your 1970s tv stations video
K11TW later became KIIT-LD and affiliated with Fox in 2001. KTVF affiliated with NBC in 1996. KKVI disaffiliated from Fox in 2012, while XHFTX and XHFOX (which signed on in September 1995 and September 1994) became Televisa affiliates in 2002 as a result of a dispute between Televisa and Fox. WICZ affiliated with Fox in April 1996, and WREX affiliated with NBC in August 1995 as a result of a Weigel affiliation deal with WBND, which replaced WSJV as the area's ABC affiliate. WEVV affiliated with CBS in December 1995 and gained back Fox on its second digital subchannel in 2011. WNEM affiliated with CBS in January 1995 as part of deal involving WJBK, which affiliated with Fox in December 1994, sending the CBS affiliation to WWJ-TV (KBVO affiliated with CBS as part of that deal in the summer of 1995). WKEF was an ABC affiliate when it signed on but was part of NBC between 1980 and 2004. WALA affiliated with Fox in January 1996 as part of a deal that involved WGNO affiliating with ABC. WNFT became WTEV and later affiliated with CBS in 2002. The Group W/CBS affiliation deal saw KUTV, KCNC, WBZ, KYW and WJZ become CBS affiliates (which affected KXTV, which affiliated with ABC in a separate deal) and WCAU becoming an NBC owned and operated station, with Westinghouse buying CBS in November 1995. WRAL affiliated with NBC in February 2016. WJZY affiliated with Fox in the summer 2013. Ironically, KCNC continued to use a variant of WNBC's 1992 logo as a CBS owned and operated station until 2003. WNBC would bring back its 1992 ad campaigns following the 9/11 attacks.
13:31 congrats you found my area
Fun fact: at 11:45 to 11:50 the intro that you saw right there is the news intro to KUSI news at 11, if you didn’t know
3:42
Hm, that looks familiar.
i dont get it
4:24 Sky News music
I literally only found ur random-ass channel from ER's comments, man 😂
6:04 Wait a minute, is that Tubular Bells?
Yep.
That CBS affiliate in Tulsa is using the background music that Leeza Gibbons did when she recapped last week's top hits on her countdown later in the 90's.
Glad to know my network (WXIA) just barely made the top 10.
2:06 ah I see where you based your ATN ID history on
Charlotte: That's a young Roseanne.
The music is very similar to the background music hears on Game Show Network promos at the time.
Sacramento: The year after that, they'll be taking their Emmys to ABC.
Fun fact-the largest market without an ID is #104, Reno, NV (254,000 households). 97.6% of the US population saw one of these ID's
Did you mean: The largest market without a 90s ID
I guess I shouldn't have held my breath for anything from Wausau/Rhinelander, WI, I've been looking myself for years. I'll let you know if I do find any.
Funny how I moved from the 25 market to the one with the seizure warning lmao
10:28 "KNOXVILLE! KNOXVILLE! KNOXVILLE!!!"
3:22 my market and local abc station
Yes, My Name Is "New Zealand"
I'm going to rate all 210 idents
Here we gooooooooooooooooooooo
209 - North Platte K11TW 5/10. It's not too bad,just basic, but I'm willing to forgive a small market. Oh and also template so automatic deduction.
208 - Alpena WBKB-TV 4/10. This is just a still at best, would've been a 2 had it not been a small market.
204 - Zanesville WHIZ 3.5/10. Barely worse than Alpena but still, the small market is understandable.
203 - Fairbanks KTVF 4.5/10. The soft music is what pushes them above WBKB-TV.
201 - Ottumwa-Kirksville KTVO-TV 4/10. Don't let the heart deceive you, this is just BKB all over again.
200 - Saint Joseph KQTV 5.5/10. The City view and the nice transition marks the 1st ident above 5, and our new leader. Congrats, KQTV!
199 - Casper KTWO 4/10. All I can express is just.. nature. That's literally all this ident is.
197 - Eureka KAEF 4/10. Boring.
192 - Great Falls KTGF-TV 3.5/10. You call this place great and yet your ident is comparable to WHIZ.
191 - Twin Falls KKVI 6.5/10. I'm suspicious that this may be a template which explains why I put it at 6.5 but this so far is the leader and our 2nd market to hit >5.
190 - Meridian WGBC-TV 3.5/10. We just went from the best so far to one of the worst so far. Michigan why???
185 - Bend KTVZ 5/10. Nice call back to the old chime of NBC.
184 - Laredo XHFTX 3/10. Soundless Stills? Seriously? Well if your so desperate then congrats on making it to the lowest so far.
182 - Charlottesville WVIR-TV 4.5/10. Once again, suspicious of a twmplate. EDIT: This is a template. Now your being put further down.
181 - Watertown WWNY-TV 4.5/10. Decent transition that saves this from joining XHFTX.
179 - Elmira WENY-TV 3/10. What kinda transition was that?!
178 - Alexandria KLAX-TV 5.5/10. What's with Louisiana and decent station ids? 1st Lafayette and now..this?
177 - Jackson WBBJ 2/10. Your disappointing me, Tennessee.
174 - Quincy-Hannibal-Keokuk KHQA-TV 4/10. That was just a worse KTVF. Alaska somehow beat out Illinois in a metric other than size.
173 - Clarksburg-Weston WBOY 3.5/10. You couldn’t even have the waterfall MOVE.
171- Dothan WTVY 4/10. PowerPoint at best.
170 - Lake Charles KVHP 8.5/10. Now *THIS* Gets me hyped. Wait.. Louisiana Again?!
168 - Billings KSVI-TV 7.5/10. Weirdly Enjoyable.
166 - Bluefield-Beckley-Oak Hill WOAY-TV 5/10. It’s good at the beginning but it’s just a still at the end.
164 - Abilene-Sweetwater KTAB-TV 4.5/10. Sounds like someone’s phone call.
161 - Binghamton WICZ-TV 5/10. It’s Okay.
160 - Terre Haute WTWO 3.5/10. Why do I have Deja Vu from this ident? Found out this was lifted from a "The place to be!" Ident chain. As a result, they shall be deducted a point.
159 - Bangor WLBZ 5/10. Average.
158 - Sherman-Ada KXII 4/10. Boring and is what ends our rise above 4.
157 - Gainesville WOGX-TV 4.5/10. I can’t quite describe this ident but at least there’s something to it.
156 - Biloxi/Gulfport WXXV 4.5/10. Still-Wait stop drowning me in balls I’m sorry
154 - Albany, GA WALB-TV 4/10. Again, Why do NBC stations give me all this deja vu? Also due to discovering that this was in fact a template ident..your losing a point.
153 - Joplin KODE 4/10. Literally a zoom-out of presumably a barn.
152 - Erie WJET-TV 3.5/10. The only reason why I snipped this down a little is because this is a news promo. If your news promo stinks and you pride yourself in the news, your station is terrible.
151 - Anchorage KTUU 3.5/10 see also: WJET
150 - Rochester/Albert Lea/Mason City/Austin KIMT 3.5/10. See Also: WJET^2.
149 - Panama City WJHG 3.5/10. Still with some effects. Those will rank lower due to a new separation by market, since we are entering 149-100.
148 - Sioux City KMEG 7.5/10. Impressive, finally something actually good that isn’t a template. Unlike your airport code, Your id doesn’t “Sux”.
Current Best Ident. - KVHP
Current Worst Ident. - WBBJ
16:17 YES CHICAGO MY BIRTH PLACE AND MY NEIGHBOORING CITY IS ON 3 YESSSSS
That means you live in the Chicago television market, right?
