'''Visuals:''' On a {{color|hotpink|pink}}/{{color|orange}} lighted background, several transparent ellipses revealing people's faces appear and disappear one at a time. Then the screen zooms out through a circle, which turns out to be the eye in the PBS P-Head standing on a floor, made from glass. To the left of the P-Head, the text "{{Font|Serif|'''PBS'''}}" rotates to face the screen.

'''Visuals:''' Against an {{color|orange}} background is the PBS circle in a {{color|gold|light yellow}} color with the P-head being the same {{color|orange}} color as the background. The circle slowly eases back and fades out as four {{color|limegreen|green}} circles appear and spread around the screen revealing smaller {{color|gold|light yellow}} circles inside. Four more circles appear and the outer circles merge with the other circles before they begin spreading out. The circle, now in the standard black and white colors, appears with a blur effect. Small circles form "pbs.org" below in a white sans-serif font.

* Generic: Sometimes, there is no live action footage; instead the logo is placed on a custom background with bubbles. The background is used in four different colors: {{color|blue}}, {{color|limegreen|green}}, {{color|orange}}, and {{color|mediumvioletred|magenta}}. On some shows, an announcer says, "You're watching PBS". On the {{color|orange}} variant, "PBS" never changes to the URL.

Retired as of November 10, 2019, it made its final appearance throughout the final PBS broadcast of ''Downton Abbey'' in June 2020.

The voiceover is the same as on the generic variants. This variant was retired following Ifill's death in November 2016.
