''' | '''Visuals:''' A crude drawing of a school is seen, next to "{{Font|Serif|'''KCTS'''}}" with a big "'''9'''" behind it, and "{{Font|Courier|'''seattle'''}}" above it all. All of this is seen in a white background, possibly a sheet of cardboard. | ||

''' | '''Visuals:''' Against a black background, four white number "'''9'''"s come together from each side of the screen (top, bottom, left, and right), then they zoom in towards the screen leaving a trail effect behind. Then we fade to "{{color|salmon|{{Font|Serif|'''KCTS'''}}}}" in big bold 3D letters, with "{{color|salmon|{{Font|Serif|'''SEATTLE'''}}}}" moving up towards "{{color|salmon|{{Font|Serif|'''KCTS'''}}}}" and stopping once it's close enough to that text, leaving a trail effect behind. | ||

''' | '''Visuals:''' An updated version of the previous logo, with the same concept and similar animation/music. Against a black background, four {{color|blue}} abstract number "{{color|blue|'''9'''}}"s come together with a trail effect to form a square like shape. As they come together, a beige colored outline of the shape forms as the trails suck into the logo. The numbers separate and rotate beyond the screen as the name "{{color|blue|'''KCTS'''}}" in blue zooms in. "{{color|blue|'''KCTS'''}}" stops and the text "'''SEATTLE'''" in the same font, but white and glowing, appears below. | ||

''' | '''Visuals:''' Over a faded {{color|dodgerblue|bright cerulean}} background, we see the word "{{color|#FFD900|{{Font|Century Gothic|'''Seattle'''}}}}", in ITC Avant Garde and colored yellow, zoom out to the right, very quickly. As it does this, "{{color|#FFD900|{{Font|Century Gothic|'''KCTS'''}}}}", in the same font and color, zoom out from the top to the left, very slowly. When both "{{color|#FFD900|{{Font|Century Gothic|'''KCTS'''}}}}" and "{{color|#FFD900|{{Font|Century Gothic|'''Seattle'''}}}}" meet, forming "{{color|#FFD900|{{Font|Century Gothic|'''KCTSeattle'''}}}}", a {{color|#FFD900|yellow}} flash occurs, and the logo seems to sparkle a bit before we fade out. | ||
'''Variant:''' Among other PBS-Affiliated stations of this time, KCTS used a bunch of local station IDs promoting their channel. In this promo, we see many clips of shows (either produced by KCTS itself and/or PBS, and other affiliates) being shown to us. After a whole bunch of shows are seen, then we see the KCTSeattle logo (which animates the same way as it does in the above-mentioned logo, only with a black/{{color|navy|dark sapphire}} gradient BG instead of the usual {{color|dodgerblue|bright cerulean}}), and then the channel station number "9" animates itself by flying away from the viewer, and place itself next to the text. Then, we see the text "TV Worth Watching" in a white script font write itself under the text. Another version has the normal background without "TV Worth Watching". | '''Variant:''' Among other PBS-Affiliated stations of this time, KCTS used a bunch of local station IDs promoting their channel.

''' | '''Visuals:''' Against a black background, we zoom out from what appears to be a glass circle with a spectrum shining through, and "{{color|sienna|'''KCTS'''}}" in {{color|sienna|copper}} carved into the circle. While we zoom out, the solid "{{color|sienna|'''KCTS'''}}" logo pushes into the circle, and the word "{{color|moccasin|S E A T T L E}}", in Hattenschweiler and colored {{color|moccasin|beige}}, and on a {{color|teal|teal-colored}} dip, rotates into place, plus two glass tubes draw themselves in going on both sides, then we fade out. | ||

''' | '''Visuals:''' On a white spotlight background, a black box containing a stylized drawing of an eclipse flips into the screen very fast along with the word "'''""<font face="Century Gothic">KCTS</font>""'''", in black and in Century Gothic. Soon after, the word ''{{color|maroon|'''SEATTLE'''}}'', in {{color|maroon|maroon}}, flies in from the bottom-left of the screen. Sometime in the mid-2000's, a different variant was used and looked similar, but the logo just simply zooms in. | ||

''' | '''Visuals:''' On a water background, we see water drops rippling and four colored circles (in order: {{color|limegreen|green}}, {{color|#FFD900|yellow}}, {{color|darkviolet|violet}}, and {{color|orange}}) drop and float. "KCTS9" drops down at the last circle. "SEATTLE" fades in below. | ||

''' | '''Visuals:''' Against a white background with flying birds, various navy blue, light blue and lime squares and triangles slide onto the screen. In the middle, a light blue rectangle with "INQUISITIVE" in white drops from the middle. Two large lime shapes appear on screen and "QUISI" becomes blue whilst the T becomes green and bold. The large shape shrinks and becomes a V, placing itself next to the T. All the other shapes disappear and the background changes to a shot of a kid in the rain jumping in puddles. Below "INQUISI'''TV'''" is small text that reads "INSPIRING A '''SMARTER''' WORLD". The "INQUISI'''TV'''" text zooms out to the left and "'''KCTS9'''" appears on the right before the PBS logo zooms in, between the texts. | ||
