1st Logo
(Late '70s-Early '80s)

Logo: We see the words "ket" in a strange blue font spinning up to the screen on a yellow BG. "KENTUCKY EDUCATIONAL TV" appears below. On the GED-based programs it produced, the logo would fold away sideways, causing the BG to turn brown as the yellow letters "ged" (arranges in a strange way) unfold. Then, they would fold away downward, causing the BG to turn yellow again as several blue "general educational development"'s are wiped onto the screen. They then dissolve together, turning the BG blue, and the episode name appears on the screen. If there is a stand-alone version of this ident, please let me know!

FX/Cheesy Factor: Rough Scanimate effects.

Music/Sounds: It begins with a UFO-like sound, followed by two long synth notes, a descending spaceship sound, and ending with a three-note synth trumpet sound.

Availability: Long extinct on TV.

Scare Factor: Low to medium.

2nd Logo
(Early '80s-1984)

Nickname: "KET", "Drawing KET", "KET Snake"

Logo: On a black background, we see the letters "KET" being drawn in a stylized font. Then, "The Kentucky Network" appears under it.

FX: "KET" drawing.

Music/Sounds: TBA

Availability: Pretty much gone. Used to appear on the Math and Writing programs of the GED series, which got replaced by the next logo below.

Scare Factor: TBA


3rd Logo
(1984-1991)
Nickname: "CGI KET", "Zooming KET"

Logo: Against an orange background, white flares bring forth an abstract "KET", then it shines all over, and "The Kentucky Network" fades in below.

FX: "KET" zooming out.

Music/Sounds: A synth whoosh, then a three-note horn tune, and one drumbeat.

Availability: On old GED-based programs (it plasters the previous logo on the Writing and Math programs of the GED series, and some PBS affiliates still air the GED series [and some air it with Spanish dubbing]), and the entire "Learn to Read" series that still airs in reruns on WNET.

Scare Factor: Medium to high, because of its sudden appearance.
