'''Visuals:''' On a black background, we see three squares, one in the distance zooming out, one with a white outline that flips, and one with {{color|red}} outlining. Each one is {{color|blue}} with transparent lines and watermarks of the name, close-up and in a Helvetica font. As the watermarks scroll to the right and zoom in, a {{color|red}} outline forms another square, which appears like a CRT-TV being turned on as "American Public Television" fades in; it is in the same color and has another watermark of the name with the camera panning on it.

'''Availability:''' Seen on current prints of APT's archival programming such as ''Mr. Bean'' and ''The Joy of Painting'', and newer (episodes of) APT shows such as ''WORLDFOCUS'' and ''Nightly Business Report'', among others. The version with the normal fanfare can be seen at the end of ''Doc Martin'', ''Midsomer Murders'', ''Mystery Science Theater 3000'', ''Royalty Close-Up'', ''A Daring Journey: From Immigration to Education'', ''The Reformation: This Changed Everything'', ''Free to Rock'', the fifth season of ''Fit 2 Stitch'', and a series of 78 movies licensed from [[20th Century Studios]], [[Warner Bros. Pictures|Warner Bros.]], [[Paramount Pictures]], and [[Sony Pictures Television]] (though the telefilm ''Doc Martin and the Legend of the Cloutie'' uses the later fanfare). The still version can be seen on ''Ruby's Studio'' on the now-defunct Qubo Channel.
