Televisora Nacional (Panama)

TVN is a media corporation, founded on 1962, based on Panama. It operates two TV stations, TVN and TVMax, and starting on January of 2013, the company now operates a radio station, which is called TVN Radio 96.7 (formerly Radio Mia.). The network, did not use an animated logo until 1989.

=Televisora Nacional "TVN" Canal 2=

1st Logo (Early 80's-Late 90's)


Nicknames: "The Industrial TVN" "T-V-E-Ne, Canal 2!" "The Jazz Singers" "The Unmovable Grid With The Text" "Awful Isthmian CGI" "The Golden TVN" (variant)

Logo: On a blue/purple background with a grid on the lower side on the screen, we see an "TVN" text with it's bottoms being split into lines. A pair comets overpass the lines on the bottoms of the letters, and a 2 appears from the upper side of the screen to the center of the background, with the bottom horizontal line being utterly splitted. Two lines zoom out to form the exact bottom, at the same font as the "TVN" letters.

Variant: On a blue background, we see the texts from before, but with gold and doing nothing.

FX/SFX: The comets overpassing the lines, all the texts rotating and appearing.

Music/Sounds: A synthetized trumpet ascending, followed by two synth zaps, and a jazz tune which people chant "T-V-E-Ne, Canal 2!"

Availability: Extinct. Seen on an awful recording of Al Descubierto on July 14, 2010.

Editor's Note: None.

2nd Logo (1994-1997)


Nicknames: "Tu Tienes que Estar" "The TV and the Abstract N" "The Triangles Formed an N" "The Exploding Television" "Arman Julian Productions' Isthmian Brother" "The Isthmian Behemoth of Scary Logos" "Move 'Em Out, Television!" "The Television and The Effects"

Logo: On a cloudy, sunny background with a number of rocky mountains, we see a platinum television on one of the rocky mountains, with a remote standing side of it. The television then shakes and we zoom out a bit of the background. The television shakes again, and then we zoom out a bit more, And then an explosion comes down of the television, causing some triangles to appear and zoom in to the screen. The background then turns into a gray background with some cartoony-ish static paused on it. The triangles then go to a lighter side of the background, and then a little darker one. (Possibly the background is a cube) Some of the triangles form the "N" and the two triangles form the holes of the N, from which is supposed to be a square with said triangles forming the N. The text "TV" in white and a modern-age weird font, draws forming some trails on the N. The screen then freezeframes and cuts to black.

FX/SFX: Possibly everything on this logo, not in such great CGI...

Music/Sounds: Some rustling, followed by two extremely loud crashing sounds when the television shakes. An descending, sudden synth can be heard when the television explodes, followed by an ascending-descending synth note with a synth rustling, and then an orchestral fanfare which consists in only 5 notes, and a xylophone which does the same. The extremely loud crashing sound is back when the "N" appears, and a mish-mash of zaps and spins when the "TV" draws. The fanfare then ends with 5 notes.

Availability: Rare.
