Legacy: This bumper, while not as popular as others, is still liked due to its creativity.

2nd ID (1978-January 1980)
ID: On a dark blue background, we see a spinning shape consisting of multiple rectangles with an open end attached to one point zoom and spin in from the right side of the screen while cycling through different colors. This animation repeats with a similar shape that has fewer rectangles that flies in from the left side of the screen and once more with the same shape but this time zooming in from the center of the screen. After this shape disappears, a yellow spiral symbol with a "p"-like shape embedded inside quickly zooms in from the center of the screen.

FX/SFX: The shape spinning and moving, the symbol zooming in. 2D animation possibly done by a computer.

Music/Sounds: A 29-note fanfare.

Availability: Extinct.

3rd ID (July 1st, 1978-May 18, 1980)
ID: We fade in from black to see the screen covered in squares, colored in various shades of, and yellow, which then shuffle to form a vertically-rotating cube with faces that rotate to reveal that they make up a picture of a flowering tree with a warmly-colored bird of paradise perched on top of it near a small hill. The bird then flies away off the tree before the cube splits into the small squares we saw before, which then scramble to fill the screen again.

FX/SFX: 2D animation, likely specifically cutout animation.

Music/Sounds: An approximately 23-note ditty likely played with pizzicato tones.

Availability: Extinct.

4th ID (October 4, 1979-December 26, 1983)
ID: On a white background, a pomegranate swings from right to left, revealing a picture of a pomegranate tree that gradually zooms in the next two times the pomegranate swings by until we can see a close-up of one of the pomegranates on the tree. The camera then zooms in the pomegranate.

Closing Variant: The pomegranate swings three times before stopping in the middle of the screen and splitting in two, with a seed falling in front of the right half.

FX/SFX: The swinging pomegranate, the picture, the picture zooming in.

Music/Sounds: A light four-note synth ditty, with an arpeggio at the end. The end version has it play in a different pitch.

5th ID (September 17, 1979-October 31, 1986)
ID: On a white background, a walnut zooms in. When it stops, it opens and releases various shapes of different colors.

Variants: Depending on the variant, the shapes are either butterflies, flowers or balloons.

Closing Variant: We see the walnut already open. Then, the shapes come back inside the walnut, which zooms out.

FX/SFX: The walnut zooming and opening, the shapes flying out.

Music/Sounds: A twelve-note synth flute-like theme, with a lighter flute sound when the walnut opens.

Availability: Extinct.

6th ID (November 11, 1979-December 28, 1988)
ID: On a black background, a -white circular, kaleidoscope-like pattern with a circle in its center draws itself outwards, starting from the center of the screen. After it covers the screen, it disappears via a wiping effect starting from the center.

Closing Variant: The same animation from the opening plays again, but with a different pattern that lacks the red circle.

FX/SFX: Done entirely in 2D animation.

7th ID (November 1979-July 1986)
ID: On a black background, we see a colorful, abstract stained glass pattern change into different shapes and getting smaller before revealing that it was made from a single illustration of a butterfly. Multiple glowing copies of the butterfly then fly out from it.

Variant: One variant shows a differently-colored butterfly and pattern, and only the copies of the butterfly appear at the end, though they do not glow.

FX/SFX: 2D animation, possibly done by a computer.
