*Opening: On a black background, a large ring made of dark red bars appear one-by-one. They brighten up to orange as a smaller ring made with dark green bars appear by the same effect and the large ring flashes to green. A even smaller ring of bars appear in dark teal. The rings then fade through different colors for about 3 seconds as a red bar ring slides into view, along with "IN COLOR" below in grey. The rings fade out and the text "PRODUCED IN NEW YORK BY WNDT" appear below in white and stacked with each other. "IN COLOR" continues to slide along the bottom of the screen until it goes off screen. | *Opening: On a black background, a large ring made of dark red bars appear one-by-one.

*Closing: On a black background, a winding path of yellow bars appear one by one, followed by a dark red path of bars behind it. They form 3 bar rings, which turn red, green, and yellow respectively, and eventually slide into each other to form a yellow ring. The yellow ring then turns into a red/green/blue ring as the same text in the opening variant appears below, with a copyright reading "(C)1970 EBC" appearing below. The ring then "spins" through its colors before fading to dark green. | *Closing: On a black background, a winding path of yellow bars appear one by one, followed by a dark red path of bars behind it.

Logo: This is a reworked version of the 13th NET logo, with the logo altered to read "wnet", with the "w" in light blue and the "n" now in red. The animation also appears to be sped up, the mass is completely yellow until it unravels, and a teal "13" also moves downward from the swirling mass, which causes the word to move up. | Logo: This is a reworked version of the 13th NET logo, with the logo altered to read "wnet", with the "w" in light blue and the "n" now in red.

Logo: On a black background, red rectangles with white horizontal pieces shoot away from the viewer, converging into a red screen with a white “FROM NEW YORK” on it. After a few seconds on screen, the pieces shoot towards the viewer, revealing teal bars, and “WNET” zooms forward on a teal background, with "PRESENTS" appearing below a second later. | Logo: On a black background, red rectangles with white horizontal pieces shoot away from the viewer, converging into a red screen with a white “FROM NEW YORK” on it.
