'''Logo:''' On a blue-to-dark blue gradient background, 5 silver horizontal bars fly out from the left (just like a gate closing) and position themselves on the screen. As soon as they reach the middle, a white upside-down triangle made of lines, with a red-to-gold gradient abstract "34" and below it a red-and-white "WOSU-TV" on it, fly in from the right of the screen and position themselves on the center of the screen. Afterwards, a white "Columbus, Ohio" in a plain font appears at the bottom of the screen. Then two lights wipe across the silver bars on which the 34 is positioned, as if emanating from the logo.
