Nine Network: Difference between revisions

'''Editor's Note:''' Interestingly, the American spelling of "color" is used in this ident, instead of the British spelling of "colour".

'''Editor's Note:''' The "still the one" slogan and three-note fanfare introduced in this ident would become key parts of Nine's branding for decades to come. The slogan was used for 27 years until it was retired in 2006, despite brief disappearances, the jingle survived even the dropping of "Still the One" and was in use as late as 2017, close to 40 years after it was initially introduced.

'''Editor's Note:''' This was the first in a long line of similarly styled idents which would last until 1994.

'''Editor's Note:''' None

'''Editor's Note:''' None

'''Editor's Note:''' This ident is heavily associated with one particular incident where a special called ''Australia's Naughtiest Home Videos'' was pulled off air mid-broadcast at the demand of the station's then-owner Kerry Packer who famously made an irate phone call to the station upon seeing the special on a TV at a dinner he was attending, ordering them to "Get that s**t off the air!" in those precise words. The clip of this ident appearing immediately after the show was pulled with a "technical difficulties" announcement delivered over it leading into a rerun of ''Cheers'' is one of the most infamous moments in Australian television history.

'''Editor's Note:''' These would be the last IDs to use the "Still the One" slogan after 27 years. It would be used one final time in a 2006 promo for the rebrand in which the original "Still The One" song was performed by Nine personalities. They would also be the last to feature the original 9 logo after 44 years. The long standing jingle would also be retired, though it would return without the slogan with the 2009 "Welcome Home" package.

'''Editor's Note:''' This rebrand was received very poorly due to its abandonment of the 9 dots and the apparent cheapness of its associated on-air graphics, which were said to resemble a PowerPoint presentation.

'''Editor's Note:''' This ident marks the full return of the famous 9 dots, 2 years after their apparent retirement, and a year after they were used as a secondary element of the "rotating cube".

'''Editor's Note:''' Given the short lifespan and apparent cheapness of these idents, it's possible they were a placeholder for the next ident.  

'''Editor's Note:''' This ident marks the return of the classic Nine jingle, as well as pays homage to the 3D styling of the 2002 idents.

'''Editor's Note:''' This is Nine's final regular ident to date. As of 2017, only holiday-themed idents are used as well as some made for special occasions and significant events (such as the COVID-19 pandemic).
