Launched on September 1, 1988 (sharing with [[Family Channel Originals|Family Channel]], VisionTV, and The Weather Network), '''[[YTV]]''' was the successor to two prior special programming services operated by various Ontario cable companies beginning in the late 1970s. However they didn't use a logo until 1989. The two largest shareholders in YTV were two cable companies: Rogers Cable and CUC Broadcasting (which would later be acquired by [[Shaw Media|Shaw Communications]]).

'''Visuals:''' On a black background, there is a slanted window painted in with {{color|blue}} borders. Inside the window is a very fuzzy {{color|gray}}/black TV screen with the {{color|red}} words "'''YTV'''" in it. The YTV letters receive a black shadow.

* When Family Channel (now [[Freeform Originals|Freeform]]) began running ''The Adventures of the Black Stallion'' in the 1990s, this logo was absent, as the [[Alliance Entertainment Corporation|Alliance]] & Atlantique logos were sped up. Instead, Family Channel's logo appeared, even though that logo played over the closing credits; When Canada's [[Showcase Original|Showcase]] channel reran the show in the mid-2000s, they seemingly used Family Channel's prints, as this variant appears at the end.

'''Visuals:''' On a black background, we see the same television set as before, except the design of the set looks slightly different. The text "'''YTV'''", arranged the same way as before but looking a little different font-wise, rapidly zooms out from the right and smashes into the TV set, making the TV set "lean back". The TV then comes into place, now with the YTV text in the screen of the set.

'''Trivia:''' This was actually the 1995-2000 YTV logo. A new logo between 2000-06 (later it was slightly modified in September 2003) was used as the channel's official logo. However, this logo remained to be used as a closing logo through 2008.

'''Visuals:''' On a {{color|blue}} and {{color|cyan}} gradient background with revolving white and {{color|gold|yellow}} lines, we see lots of white and {{color|blue}} lines coming together to form a {{color|cyan}} and white circle with "'''YTV'''" on it, similarly compared to the previous logos.

'''Trivia:''' This new YTV logo was first debuted on September 5, 2005 and used as a secondary logo for the 2000 logo (which was used during primetime), while it became the channel's sole logo on January 22, 2006 (although the 2000-2006 logo was still used in daytime until 2007, when the 2005-2009 logo was adopted full-time by the channel), and until August 30, 2009.

* 2010-2014: In a {{color|blue}} environment, we see random {{color|gold|yellow}} shapes around the screen moving around. As the space is being surrounded by the shapes, we see many flying shapes in {{color|blue}} and white. The shapes then collide and form the YTV logo, now fully {{color|blue}} and white, as the text spreads out on it and the screen shakes as it forms with the spikes rotating. The logo rotates as a Corus byline appears below.

* 2012-2013: Same as before, this time the animation is different: the shapes come in as the YTV logo comes in and makes a U-turn like an boomerang, as a rectangle comes in and places itself below. (Its design is the same as the later version, but the logo has no white bumpers, lacks the Corus byline, the shapes and lighting are different, now at a different angle.) "ORIGINAL" in a generic font is seen under the rectangle it was on that was darker.

* 2013-2016: In a differently lit {{color|blue}} environment, there is a {{color|blue}} hemisphere with white lines. It zooms out and spins as the {{color|gold|yellow}} shapes, this time different, move into place. The hemisphere then stops spinning, the logo being fully revealed, and we see "ORIGINAL" on a {{color|lightblue|light blue}} rectangle going under it, as white borders surrounding it move  positions. Underneath it is the newer Corus byline.
