Here is a nerdy fact I just discovered: ABC was born out of NBC. (True!) In its radio days in the 1920s, 1930s, and until 1945, NBC had two radio divisions. NBC Red and NBC Blue. However, it was apparently taken to court due to antitrust issues. So it was broken up. NBC Red became NBC, and NBC Blue became ABC. For its first two years of existence, ABC would remained closely aligned to NBC before becoming its own entity/network in 1948.
Very true fact. When NBC Blue died in 1941, it was subsequently renamed the Blue Network. In 1943, the network was reinvented as the American Broadcasting Company (ABC).
The Late 1980s logos have aged very well by the standards of early CGI. I presume NBC was perceived as the "cool" network from 1985 to around 2000. The M&M era feels like NBC stopped caring.
GBN is an Pubilc National Television Service Broadcasting Network Founded in 1956/1959 (Affiliates in NBC) In Located Gay, GLP (Dubbing Homoian/American English)
It's interesting to see some of the early versions of the peacock logo archived in black-and-white. The idea was to give B&W viewers some idea what they were missing out on. NBC being affiliated with RCA (and later GE) got color TV past a chicken-and-egg adoption problem since they were able to push both content and hardware.
@@gaffneyrailroading1982 Well MTV is technically based in New York so the call sign would have to begin with W not K, and anyways it's not a local OTA station so call signs are not used, just a station name. WRAP is weird. You could never be my station manager.
I hope y’all will reply to this that was funny when the peacock 🦚 hit the C and boom!?????…also in two other NBC logo videos there are was one where the announcer said this is the CBS Television God dammit that was also funny huh?????!!!
The NBC of the David Sarnoff years was really something; this was the station that telecast concerts with Toscanini. Today it is trash and a disgrace to its foundations.
@@sherryhannah498 All you need to do is watch the "Law and Order" reboot in 2022 to see the same narrative pushed by their so-called "news" arm. Absolute transparent garbage.
