'''Logo:''' We fade into a close-up shot of the Milky Way, but just half a second later, we start zooming away, and in the process, we pass the earth, then we arrive at the Detroit skylines. As soon as the zooming stops, the texts "The Universe", "The World", and "Detroit" all zoom out, stacking each other, and then the text "and you" writes out in cursive, and the WTVS logo of the time, next to "WTVS/56" fades below. | '''Logo:''' We fade into a close-up shot of the Milky Way, but just half a second later, we start zooming away, and in the process, we pass the earth, then we arrive at the Detroit skylines.

''' | '''Variants:''' | ||
* A production variant exists, where the background is seen without any text. "FROM" and "WTVS/DETROIT" slide in from the left and right respectively, and they fold down to straighten out. | |||
* There is a shorter version that just starts at the texts zooming out. | |||
'''FX/SFX:''' The zooming of the camera and text, plus the writing of "and you". Decent animation for the 1980s. | '''FX/SFX:''' The zooming of the camera and text, plus the writing of "and you". Decent animation for the 1980s. | ||
'''Music/Sounds:''' A majestic eight-note synthesized orchestra tune, with a "ding" at the beginning. The shorter version uses a quicker, 10-note synth tune. | '''Music/Sounds:''' A majestic eight-note synthesized orchestra tune, with a "ding" at the beginning.

'''Availability:''' Extinct. Seen with the "Skyline" ID, this was used as a "You're watching..." ID on WTVS. It would then cut to a national program intro tag at the time. | '''Availability:''' Extinct. Seen with the "Skyline" ID, this was used as a "You're watching..." ID on WTVS.

'''Logo:''' On a dark blue tinted action background, we see "A Production of" above and "Detroit Public Television" below zoom out leaving trails. In the background, we see the transparent letters "Detroit Public Television". Between the 3 and 3 arranged words is the same eclipse logo from 1998. The eclipse in the square shines. | '''Logo:''' On a dark blue tinted action background, we see "A Production of" above and "Detroit Public Television" below zoom out leaving trails.
