In 1989, [[WarnerMedia|Time Warner]]'s [[HBO IDs|HBO]] unit expanded into basic cable with "[[The Comedy Channel Originals|The Comedy Channel]]", the first cable channel devoted exclusively to comedy-based programming.

After both channels took a hit, the two compromised and created "'''Comedy Partners'''" in 1991, merging both channels into "'''CTV: The Comedy Network'''", which was renamed shortly after to "'''Comedy Central'''" (in order to avoid confusion with Canada's [[CTV National IDs|CTV]] network). | After both channels took a hit, the two compromised and created "'''Comedy Partners'''" in 1991, merging both channels into "'''CTV: The Comedy Network'''", which was renamed shortly after to "'''Comedy Central'''" (in order to avoid confusion with Canada's [[CTV National IDs|CTV]] network). | ||

'''Logo:''' On a {{color|red}} background, we see a close-up of the Comedy Central logo, which zooms out as the camera cuts to the text "'''THIS HAS BEEN'''" and "{{color|lightskyblue|'''A PRESENTATION OF'''}}" sliding next to what looks like melting graffiti. "'''THIS HAS BEEN'''" flickers, and the screen then cuts to another close-up of the Comedy Central logo as the text slides in at an angle, and the white parts of the logo briefly flash to black. The text flickers again and we see the logo appear in white once again. Everything flickers, as the logo changes its position and flickers between black and white. This all continues until it cuts to black. | '''Logo:''' On a {{color|red}} background, we see a close-up of the Comedy Central logo, which zooms out as the camera cuts to the text "'''THIS HAS BEEN'''" and "{{color|lightskyblue|'''A PRESENTATION OF'''}}" sliding next to what looks like melting graffiti.
