When I was a kid I remember sitting in front of the TV during the holiday seasons, waiting for one of the Charlie Brown specials to begin. Just before it started, CBS would display it's Special Presentation Identity logo -- the Word "SPECIAL" spinning with a multicolor trail to some seventies sounding drum and trumpet accompaniment. That six-second opener was like a dinner bell to the Pavlov's Dog in me.

This Youtube video is a compilation of some of those TV station and television production logos -- the ones you'd see just before or right after the show ended. Watching these is definitely like a quick time trip back into the 70's and 80's (Remember 'Sit Ubu, sit. Good Dog"?)

See which ones you remember.
