Yes came here to say this. I'm interested by the comments about RTL Netherlands generally having nice graphics because the current channel logos themselves look bloody awful.
The 2012-2017 logo of RTL5 has always especially been in my personal hall of shame - the current one is still abysmal, but I still really can’t get my head around what they were thinking with that random 70’s looking blocky red thing…

The logos are pretty rubbish - but I think the surrounding graphics are good. And the news looks fantastic (though it's definitely due a revamp now after nine years).

And we'll miss SMP Amsterdam creating absolute crackers like this remix of the main RTL Nieuws theme if RTL choose to go with someone else.

Technically, the ITV network has been legally known as Channel 3 ever since the existence of the 1990 Broadcasting Act.


RE: International Presentation - JAS84 - 06-04-2023

Yeah, but it's not their on-air name and never has been, except for a couple of years in the Yorkshire and Tyne Tees regions only.

The RTL United project started in 2021 when RTL Deutschland adapted this new brand. RTL Hungary followed in 2022. RTL Netherlands is the next one.

Please note, as this has not yet been officially announced, the exact launch date is uncertain.

The "RTL" part of that brand was so recognizable, that they placed it on all logos and used it as corporate logo for "RTL Nederland". I think RTL will follow the German version, just "Nieuws" behind the blocks with a blue colour scheme. But after 9 years, a completely new look for RTL Nieuws, is also justified. 

I've only seen two logos and an end board of a promo. The execution has to be spot on, because it's very difficult to copy television graphics from one region to another.

Good scoop RtH! The promo end board looks different to what it is used in Germany and Hungary, but looks promising from what it is seen. If they do something like they manage to did in Hungary, it would be a great execution. As Kojak told, RTL Nederland has good graphics.

A good decision not to rename RTL 4 as simply RTL (might be due to Dutch TV particularities), as well as taking each channel's existing colors into the new blocks. The question is: will RTL 7 and 8 retain purple and pink? Will RTL Nieuws and RTL Z take the RTL Aktuell route?


Quick break on this: after a three-year-plus delay, WNET/Thirteen has finally switched to a new logo.

First time WNET-TV  is using the PBS logo on their logo.  Kind of a shame how many of the PBS member station logos kind of went "blander" with the PBS 2019 update.  I guess WNET, funny enough, gave their logo some style by modifying the font.  Wonder when the WLIW version of the logo will start being used.

Also, in related news from WNET, their website's favicon has switched to a version of their old "owl" logo from their WNDT era!

This one’s been a long time coming! I think the plan is for Luxembourg next, followed by France. The only other outstanding rebrand after that will be Croatia, but it’s now a franchisee (like RTL Belgium) and currently using a slightly messy version of the old RTL Deutschland branding. Will be interesting to see what happens there.

There is no RTL France. Though they do own M6.

There is an RTL France. They own a radio station (the most-listened to in France) and a TV station called RTL9, among other outlets.
