1st Logo (1972-1977)

Nicknames: "Static Star", "Televisa Popcorn"

Logo: In the center of the screen, we see an orange oval (resembling an eye) that has been cut horizontally into several pieces. This is surrounded by a chyron pentagon turning clockwise. As the shape is turning, the sides of the pentagon fold and form a star. The words "TELEVISA" (stacked in a fat & blocky font) appears below the oval.

Variation: The static is removed sometimes. The logo may appear during the show closing.

FX/SFX: Very crude animation.

Music/Sounds: The music may vary; Sometimes, a guitar theme is heard, while in other, a "popping" theme is used. A female announcer that says "Televisa, a traves de su canal 8 presenta". some cases, the part where says ''a traves de su canal 8" is blanked, only leaving "Televisa... presenta"

Availability: Uncommon. This is still on early episodes of El Chavo del 8, which is still being reran in every country in North & South America rather frequently. Check Univision for this logo.

Editor's Note: The psychedelic graphics and slightly strange music may get to some.

2nd Logo (In-credit) (1977-2001)

Nicknames: "Sun in the Credits"

Logo: Just consisted on the Televisa "Sun" logo from the time superimposed in the beggining or the end of the show. In some shows like Los Ricos Tambien Lloran and Rosa Salvage, the logo is colored white. In other like La Carabina de Ambrosio and El Derecho de Nacer, the logo has his original orange look. In Agujetas del Color de Rosa, we see a glassy version of the logo zooming and being colored in his respective colors, and later plays reverse. In Muchachitas, we see several bars appearing off-screen an placing to form the logo, at the end the logo shines. It also has a silver look. In Confidente de Secundaria, we see a 3D version of the logo which flies out of the scene. In Locura de Amor, we see the logo zooming out while placing on a black background, leaving a trail.

FX/SFX: The fade in-out, most of the time.

Music/Sounds: Silent or the show opening/closing theme.

Availability: Extremely rare. Seen on shows released by the company.

Editor's Note: None.

3rd (known) Logo (Early-Mid 1980's)

Logo: On a black background, we see a lined circle spin rapidly and zoom in. A yellow circle follows. The finished product does the same thing in reverse and to the top-left corner.

FX/SFX: The zooming.

Music/Sounds: A synth jingle with an announcer saying "Televisa presenta su programa."

Availability: Extinct.

Editor's Note: None.

4th (known) Logo (Mid 1980's-1992)

Televisa (1986)

Logo: On a blue background, we see a sun rise up to place itself in an odd, segmented circle, forming the familiar logo. It sparkles.

FX/SFX: The rising.

Music/Sounds: A cresending synth.

Availability: Extinct.

Editor's Note: None.

5th (known) Logo (1992-January 1, 2001)

Logo: We see the Televisa logo, in CGI, zoom in and tilt into its place. "PRESENTA" fades in below. The logo shines.

Variant: Later, we see the bars zoom in and rotate at different times, until they stop. The logo zooms out. There's also no text. In La Dueña, the logo appear superimposed on show opening.

FX/SFX: The zooming.

Music/Sounds: A rock tune followed by an announcer saying "Televisa Presenta..." The later version has a couple of descending synths followed by a whoosh.

Availability: Extremely rare.

Editor's Note: None.

Televisa (1992)Televisa (1990's)Televisa (1990's)Televisa (1995?)

Logo: Just the 2D Televisa logo (scarlet and yellow) on a black background zooming in or still. Below is "PRESENTA" which varies in font.

Variant: There is a version with the company name at the top, with all the letters (except the T in "Televisa") lowercase.

FX/SFX: The zooming or none.

Music/Sounds: Silent, a cymbal, or a synth tune.

Availability: Very rare. This can be seen in some episodes of Chespirito.

Editor's Note: None.

7th Logo (January 1, 2001-2006)

Televisa

Logo: On a waving blue background, several orange lines spin in at the center. The "Televisa" text then appears via stretching effect, as the orange ball appears on the center of the lines and "presenta" fades in below the name.

FX/SFX: The background, lines and ball spinning and text appearing.

Music/Sounds: A bell arpeggio, then a mild whoosh, with an announcer saying "Televisa presenta", as a brief synth pad appears. It is sometimes rearranged.

Availability: Uncommon. Can be still seen on reruns of Televisa series of the time (more common on international Mexican channels such as Canal De Las Estrellas and TLNovelas).

Editor's Note: None.

8th Logo (2006-January 16, 2016)

Televisa (2006)Televisa (2014)Televisa 2006 Logo in WidescreenTelevisa (2012)Televisa (2012) *English version*

Nickname: "Sparkling Sun"

Logo: On a blue background, the orange ball of the logo shoots in from below and moves to the center. A white line then orbits quickly through the ball, as the other lines of the Televisa logo spin in between. The orange ball also has a brighter blue glow. The "Televisa" text is wiped in, but the letters are seen sideways before they turn into normal view when "PRESENTA" fades in. The logo zooms in slightly.

Variants: When played in 4:3, it is smoother, and in 16:9, it is rougher. A zoomed in version of the logo (smoother version) can be seen on older shows, notably those starring Chespirito (El Chavo del 8, El Chapulin Colorado, and Chespirito). On most episodes of La CQ, the ball is initially black and turns orange after zooming out. Also the bottom text reads "presenta", and the logo looks cheaper. On English programming, the logo reads "Televisa PRESENTS".

FX/SFX: Everything.

Music/Sounds: Same as the previous logo.

Music/Sounds Variant: On La CQ and Hollywood Heights, a filtering synth theme is heard.

Availability: Very common. It's no longer current, but it can still be seen on re-runs of old Televisa series (like the 6th logo) on national channels or international airings, mainly on those on Canal De Las Estrellas. Univision, UniMas, and Galavision's prints of such preserve it in the US.

Editor's Note: None.

9th Logo (January 16, 2016-)

Televisa (2016)Televisa Deportes (2017)Televisa (2016)Televisa (2016, Red)Televisa Deportes (2017)Televisa Deportes (2017)

Logo: On a white surface we see various blue stripes extending to the right as the blue color covers the screen. When the screen is all blue, the Televisa logo, in white and 2D, forms with a similar fashion like the 6th logo. "Televisa" and "PRESENTA" fade in below. There's a lens flare light on the top-left. The logo has no sphere in the center.

Variants: On sports programming, "Televisa" is replaced with "DEPORTES". Additionally, another version reads "Televisa NETWORKS PRESENTA". Occasionally, blue is replaced with a different color, such as green, dark red, purple, and sky blue. An orange colored version has the logo forming like a scanimate logo. A red colored version has the logo wiped in several times, revealing outlines, until we see the complete logo. A version without "PRESENTA" has the logo formed bar by bar. A version without lens flaring fades in one second into the logo.

FX/SFX: The blue stripes extending and covering all the screen, the Televisa logo forming. This is a nice redesign of a classic logo.

Music/Sounds: A synth harp with ethereal synth sounding very similar to the beginning of Oxygene Part 1 by Jean Michel Jarre. An announcer says "Televisa Presenta".

Availability: Current.

Editor's Note: None.
