'''Logo:''' In the credits, we see a white rounded box with the words "'''A'''", "'''wxxi'''", "'''tv'''", and "'''production'''" inside it. "'''wxxi'''" is connected to the box, and the words "'''portions pre-recorded'''" are under the box, with "'''pre-recorded'''" below "portions", and the text in the same font as the text in the box.

===2nd Logo (1980-1982?)===

'''Logo:''' We see the text "{{color|silver|{{Font|Cooper|WXXI}}}}", in the Tiffany Heavy BT font and in {{color|silver}}, turning and zooming away from the viewer at a 90-degree angle, over a plain black background, shining all over. The background fades to a black-{{color|blue}} gradient background as the logo flashes on the screen and settles on the center of it. Flashing stars appear under the logo and move away from each other to reveal "{{color|cream|{{Font|Cooper|ROCHESTER NEW YORK}}}}", in {{color|cream|cream}} and in the same font, a la the [[Hanna-Barbera Home Video]] logo. "{{color|silver|{{Font|Cooper|WXXI}}}}" then takes on a {{color|lightsteelblue|pale blue}} tint, except for the bottom which is colored {{color|gold|yellow}}, and finally, the whole logo shines.

'''Logo:''' On a {{color|darkblue|dark blue}} background with a {{color|blue}} spotlight, we see the text "{{color|#FFD900|'''XXI'''}}" in a tilted {{color|gold|yellow}} font zoom out. A glass "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''W'''}}" zooms out and turns around. A dark sphere slides in from the right and spins counterclockwise, becoming {{color|slateblue|light violet}} when it stops. The "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''W'''}}" turns white and places itself onto the circle. "TV-ROCHESTER" slides in below. The logo shines while the spotlight zooms in a little.

'''Logo:''' On a black background with a {{color|skyblue|light blue}} light curtain on the left side and blinking circles on the right side (not unlike the 7th logo), we see the WXXI logo zoom in while rotating, as the light curtains briefly take over the background. After they dim out, the text "DT | Rochester" fades in over the "'''XI'''". The logo then fades out, with "DT | Rochester" fading out last.

'''Logo:''' We see a spotlight shining on a "'''W'''" and part of an "'''X'''", both as silhouettes. After the letters fade out, we see a wiping transition effect via a subtle, white sheen that reveals the WXXI logo letter-by-letter, with "{{color|navy|'''W'''}}" represented in {{color|navy|navy blue}} and "{{color|gold|'''XXI'''}}" in {{color|gold}}, and "Rochester I NY" under the letters in white. After the lettering is shown in the logo, we then see several lights from a skyline turn on, with some blinking. The logo then fades.

'''Availability:''' Can be seen only in Upstate New York State-based programming, especially around the Rochester viewing area; however, ''Homework Hotline'', which is produced in Rochester, can be seen in the Five Boroughs of NYC, and it can also be seen in parts of New Jersey and Connecticut due to those states being in the WNET Thirteen viewing area. It also appears between programs as a station ID.
