PBS North Carolina (formerly UNC-TV) is a public television network serving the state of North Carolina, which is operated by the University of North Carolina system, which holds the licenses for all but one of the thirteen PBS member television stations licensed in the state. WUNC-TV, the state network's flagship station, first aired on January 8, 1955. PBS North Carolina has changed their name many times during its years, from North Carolina Public Television to University of North Carolina Television, which then changed to UNC-TV, and finally, UNC-TV changed its name to PBS North Carolina in 2021.
My next logo history will be on Disney Channel Originals.

What are your favorite logos from UNC-TV/PBS North Carolina? Mine would be the 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 11th, 12th, 14th, and 15th logos!

[@ConRhoLahainne]

3rd, 4th, 14th & 15th is my favorite PBS North Carolina logos!

[@johncoxmastercartoonist9390]

The 1979, 1990, 1992, 1995, 1996, 2007 and 2021 ones.

[@WhovianMG]

I like one of the variants of the 9th logo, because it looks like a time vortex.

[@AlephNullSlash]

5th to latest. 3rd is literally a decent except the font is confusing. 4th is decent also but the sound is literally 8-bit carnival sounds.

[@CowboysNo1Fan]

8th (blue variant) Eleventh and 12th

[@coreylineberry8557]

Ah... Taking me back to my childhood. The University of North Carolina Television.

[@cfsk-tv]

I don't know why, but I'm feeling anemoia on most of logos of UNC-TV from 80s and 90s. This is so satisfying! BTW, Jonty, great logo history!

[@JontyMaster]

I'm glad you like it

[@AkiraMidori]

1:09: “The University of North Capolina”

[@mkjiisus]

That "From the Mountains to the Coast" line and the music from the 11th logo will be forever ingrained in my brain. The one i remember seemed to have a different woman's voice, but just to hear the background music again is incredible.

[@ethandtheangryenglishguy8253]

Wonderful logo history Jonty! 😀 Nice job! 🙂

[@ctpics916]

Speaking of North Carolina, I’m actually staying there for 3 days!

[@carolinemason9584]

I grew up on this channel, watching TV shows on Rootle, and watching history shows on the Explorer channel

[@zachatck64]

The nostalgia! I may live in Virginia but strangely enough we get UNC too! (Probably because I'm only 10 minutes from the border XD)

[@JontyMaster]

That's interesting.

[@zachatck64]

@@JontyMaster Ok, rewatching it I forgot UNC covers my region (Hampton Roads, Southeast Virginia), that's why lol

[@ManF3]

Awesome ident history of PBS North Carolina (formerly UNC-TV), Jonty! Even though UNC-TV rebranding to PBS North Carolina isn't the easiest to get used to, the idents from UNC-TV look really interesting. The design of the UNC-TV logo, which was used for 43 years before the rebrand, does remind me of the Screen Gems logo. My favourite ident from UNC-TV would be the 5th ident, because of the nice animation, which fits very well with the xylophone theme. And yes, you knew that my least favourite ident from UNC-TV would be the 3rd ident. I've seen the ident on almost every single top 10/20 cheesiest educational television idents, along with KWSU (1976) and Channel 8 Unalaska, and I have to agree that the ident isn't really good, because of the dull, ugly colour scheme and the font of the logo, which is hands down one of the ugliest fonts I've seen thus far. It makes Comic Sans look like one of the nicest-looking fonts ever. But anyway, great ident history.

[@WhovianMG]

I like Comic Sans

[@NathanPlays395]

stop being manipulated by the kids who just hates on specific logos and forcing other ppl to think the same

[@e.hcreative6718]

The 4th logo kind of reminds me of Screen Gem’s S of hell logo. Just the design of it looks pretty cool for the 1980’s!!!!

[@JontyMaster]

It does look cool for the 1980s indeed!

[@e.hcreative6718]

@@JontyMaster Yes! I love anything 80’s/90’s in general! Looking forward to Disney Channel’s Original Movies those were the best of times for me growing up watching Disney Channel.

[@e.hcreative6718]

@Channel X Why does my comment matter to you then ?

[@ConRhoLahainne]

Jonty, this premiere looks perfect!

[@Luigi_Mario_1997]

2002 through 2018 was my childhood!

[@davidmatthewvinotjr8396]

Personally, I HATE the PBS rebrand rollout that they did. I prefer the UNC-TV hurricane Eye logo over the Crappy PBS NC logo we got now.

[@AlephNullSlash]

Because United States. A country that cares money, politics and corrupt and doesn't care about other.

[@jcclark7788]

[@AlephNullSlash]

How did they rebrand from UNC-TV to PBS North Carolina? UNC-TV and its logo are literally good! And they rebranding it. Why United States...

[@prentisroberson2305]

You forgot the PTV Park ones, with the voices such as You're watching UNC-TV Just for Kids.

[@JontyMaster]

It doesn't really matter.

[@1Soniccool]

Well my favorite is the previous logo before the rebrand to PBS NC

[@decimatorentertainmentstud8523]

Today it's called PBS North Carolina.
