'''KPBS''' is a [[PBS]] affiliate located in San Diego, California. KPBS was founded in 1960 by San Diego State College (now San Diego State University), as a radio station that went under the name KEBS; in 1967, KEBS began broadcasting on television as an NET affiliate. In 1970, after [[NET|National Educational Television]] folded in to New York City/Newark station WNDT (now [[WNET|The WNET Group]]), PBS absorbed NET's operations and KEBS changed its name to KPBS.

'''Visuals:''' On a black background, a {{color|red}}-tinted glass rectangle, with a lot of {{color|deeppink|pink}} sparkling on it, on a black background. It revolves around until we see "{{color|red|'''KPBS'''}}" inside it. "{{color|red|'''SAN DIEGO'''}}", in a red CG Omega font, fades in below. Once the logo's in place, the {{color|deeppink|pink}} sparkling seems to die down.

'''Visuals:''' On a black background, an white outline for the text "'''KPBS'''" in a font similar to that of the 1971 PBS logo wiping in downwards, filling in with a {{color|deepskyblue|light blue}}/black gradient after it's finished. The cursive text "''San Diego''" in a {{color|#FFD900|yellow}}/{{color|orange}} gradient cursive font fades in below.

'''Visuals:''' Over a black background, the logo starts with the {{color|deepskyblue|light blue}} text "{{color|deepskyblue|{{Font|Serif|'''KPBS'''}}}}" in the standard PBS typeface with a blue glow around it. The "{{color|deepskyblue|{{Font|Serif|'''KPBS'''}}}}" shines throughout the logo. The words "{{color|#FFD900|'''''San Diego'''''}}" in a {{color|#FFD900|yellow}} stylized cursive, are written out (a la the [[Almi Television Productions|ALMI]] logo) as the outline of the letters flashes at the viewer, at sort of a tilted position (a la the [[Celebrity Home Entertainment]] logo). Once the text is completed, the outline flashing goes back into the words.

'''Visuals:''' On a black background, various copies of KPBS' new logo, which is consisted of the letters "{{Font|Serif|'''{{color|deepskyblue|K}}{{color|#FFD900|P}}{{color|darkviolet|B}}{{color|red|S}}'''}}" clumped together, in various sizes overlapping each other zoom in slowly as "A PRODUCTION OF" zooms in with them. A normal sized copy slowly moves up to the middle. A copyright in Roman numerals appears as the text zooms in and fades out and the background darkens. "'''S A N D I E G O'''" moves down quickly from the top of the screen and meets up with the logo as the background darkens to a point that the copies are barely visible and a picture of a shell casting a shadow over a concrete surface fades in below.

 

*A later version has the logo much cheaper looking version (the copies don't zoom in, the logo and text are smaller with "A PRODUCTION OF" and a normal copyright date appearing in a different font).

*There's a still version of the logo on a grey background and without the shell picture.

'''Visuals:''' There is the letters "{{Font|Serif|'''{{color|deepskyblue|K}}{{color|#FFD900|P}}{{color|darkviolet|B}}{{color|red|S}}'''}}", shown in the same style as the 3rd logo, on the screen. The words "San Diego" are also found usually next to the logo. Sometimes, the text shines.

 

'''Audio:''' Usually, none or the end theme of the show. Early programs have a piano rendition of the 1991 jingle.
