FX Networks logo (1995).PNG

'''Logo:''' On a light purple background with two faint moving searchlights, we see the letter "{{font|Serif|'''f'''}}", and next to it is a black box with two {{color|gold|yellow}} searchlights. Under the text and box is "'''{{Font|Serif|Networks}}'''". A trademark notice is below the logo.

'''Logo:''' Over a backdrop full of skyscrapers, we see a close-up of a typical Fox structure, but with the 1997 FX logo on top with eight searchlights surrounding it (two in front, two on the sides and four from behind). The camera zooms out until the entire tower is on screen. The registered trademark "®" symbol and the copyright notice "© [YEAR] FX NETWORKS, LLC. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED" fade in below.

Fx networks 2003.png

'''Logo:''' On a black background, we see white strips forming the FX logo letters. Then the {{color|limegreen|green}}/white searchlight box fades in next to the logo, forming the 1997 FX logo. There is a copyright stamp below that reads "© [year] FX Networks, LLC. All rights reserved."

Fx networks 2004.png

'''Logo:''' On a black background, we see the two letters "'''FX'''" as well as the FX logo zooming out looking distorted at first, then assembling into the 1997 FX logo. It shines whilst zooming out even slower than before. A copyright stamp fades in below.  

'''Music/Sounds:''' A whoosh sound, or the ending theme of the show. On ''Meltdown'', it's silent.  

'''Availability:''' Scarce. This was seen on shows airing on FX in the 2004-2005 season, such as early episodes of ''Rescue Me'' and season 3 of ''The Shield'', but current prints of these two shows delete it. It was also seen on the TV movies ''Meltdown'' (Amazon Prime and Tubi prints retain it) and ''Redemption: The Stan Tookie Williams Story''.

Fx networks 2007.png

'''Logo:''' On a black background with {{color|limegreen|green}} lighting, we see four copies of the 1997 FX logo spinning like a wheel. The background zooms out to reveal the FX logo with lights. There is a copyright stamp below that reads "© [year] FX Networks, LLC. All Rights Reserved."

* In 2006, tons of X letters were added in the background. Seen on season 2 of ''It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia''.

** An alternate version of this variant exists. It's the same as above, but the animation is modified a bit. The X letters are on a {{color|limegreen|lightgreen}} background and the spinning of the logos is faster and barely seen. Three FX logos fade out a few seconds later and the background becomes darker. There is also no zoom-out. Seen on 2006-2008 shows.

* On ''Over There'', it's the finishing of the abridged 1997 20th Century Fox theme (which begins on the TCFTV logo before it).

Fx networks 2018.png

'''Logo:''' We see a few copies of the FX logo (this time without the searchlight box) floating and spinning around, and the camera is positioned close to this. We see another shot of this happening. As we only get a glimpse of this, a white 2D FX logo then spins to the center of the screen and faces the viewer on a dark background with a whitish-{{color|blue|bluish}} light shining in the bottom-right corner. We also see shadows of the FX logos floating and spinning in the background as well. Copyright information appears below that reads "© [year] FX Networks, LLC. All Rights Reserved."

'''Later Variant:''' Starting in 2013, a modified version of the FX logo is used (with the letters connected at the top), now {{color|blue}} on a background with a {{color|blue}} light shining greatly at the center without shadows. In 2018, a lens flare was added on the bottom right corner of the screen.

'''Music/Sounds:''' A 3-note deep synth tune with two slow and soft hi hat-like sounds.

'''Availability:''' Seen on all shows and TV movies produced by FX between 2008-2019.

FX Networks logo (2019-2020) (Closing).png

'''Logo:''' On a white setting, we pan past some vertical beams. As we pan to the front, it is revealed that these beams form the FX logo. The segmented background blinks out.

'''Availability:''' Uncommon, due to its rather short lifespan. It's seen on the second season of ''Mayans M.C.'' and ''Mr Inbetween'', among other FX shows of the time.  

<gallery mode="packed" heights="180">

'''Closing Variant:''' The already-formed logo zooms out as the word "FEARLESS" fades in and out. Copyright information appears below that reads "© [year] FX Networks, LLC. All Rights Reserved."

 

'''Variants:'''

* During the FX on [[Hulu Originals|Hulu]] panel in the 2020 Disney Investor Day, the logo was formed after the castle from the [[Walt Disney Pictures|Disney]] logo, created with particles, was dissolved. After the logo was formed, it pans to the left side, as it goes inside, showcasing the various shows the network aired at the time, along with reveals of new shows. After that, it goes outside, showing the FX logo once more, then it zooms out to show the rest of the Disney content, such as [[Disney+ Originals|Disney+]], [[Pixar Animation Studios|Pixar]], [[Marvel Studios|Marvel]], Hulu and more, then it zooms in to the bottom right to show the chairman of FX, John Landgraf, a bit closer to the camera then fades out. At the end of the panel, the camera pans to the right as abstact scenes are projected then it changes color.
