1st Logo
(1953-1982)
Logo: We see some in-credit text that reads:
Variant: Some shows would just simply say "An ABC Production", "an ABC TELEVISION NETWORK production", "(This has been) An ABC TELEVISION NETWORK PRESENTATION", [Name of series] IS AN ABC NETWORK TELEVISION (NETWORK) PRESENTATION", (This has been) a [Name of production company] in association with the American Broadcasting Company, or [Name of series] is a [name of production company] in association with the American Broadcasting Company.
FX/SFX: None.
Music/Sounds/Voice-over: The end title theme from any show or silent with or without a male announcer saying either the following:
Availability: Rare. This was seen on a lot of original prints of shows such as The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet, The Jetsons, The Flintstones, and Top Cat, among other shows. Not even DVD releases have this. This logo appeared at the end of two episodes of The Donna Reed Show on Me-TV sometime in July 2014. Also seen at the end of a few prints of the recent reruns of The Untouchables on H&I (Heroes and Icons).
Editor's Note: None.
2nd Logo
(1982-2001)
Logo: It's just some in-credit text saying:
Sometimes it says: "ABC Entertainment Productions" or "ABC Entertainment Production" with the ABC copyright stamp and the phrase "In cooperation with", "In association with", or "A Production of".
FX/SFX: None or scrolling in the credits.
Music/Sounds: The end title theme from any show.
Availability: Rare. Seen on The Littles on DVD and episodes of America's Funniest Home Videos when Bob Saget hosted.
Editor's Note: None.
3rd Logo
(February 3, 2001-May 17, 2002)
Nicknames: The ABC Circle", "YellowABC", "Modern ABC"
Logo: Over a black background, we see several yellow circles and shapes zooming forth, eventually segueing into ayellowABC logo zooming in. The text "Entertainment" appears below, along with a copyright stamp.
Trivia:This was based on the on-air bumpers that ABC had at the time and the design was likely made by Troika.
Variants:
FX/SFX: The yellow circles zooming.
Music/Sounds: A cycle of 2 record scratches, followed by a hip-hop version of the 4-note ABC jingle. The variant uses an extended variant of the music; the closing notes are a little slower than normal.
4th Logo
(September 27, 2002-May 9, 2003)
Nickname: "Color Ripples"
Logo: It's a shortened version of a 2002 ABC bumper, only it cuts to when the text "abc" appears on a yellow background, and "Entertainment" and a copyright stamp appears below the ABC logo as the background turns green.

When it forms, the words "ABC ENTERTAINMENT" fade in below the logo with copyright information. The disc then shines.
FX/SFX: Good animation.

Availability: Same as the last logo.
Editor's Note: None.
9th Logo
(October 1, 2006-May 18, 2007)

FX/SFX: Nice CGI.
Music/Sounds: A soft synthesized rendition of the ABC theme, ending in a deep sounder.

Nicknames: "Aqua ABC III", "Start Here III"
Logo: Nearly the same as the last logo, but the background is a mixture of brown and gold and the ABC logo is seen at the top right and is facing us at the beginning.
Variant: An odd variant of this logo was spotted on a June 17, 2017 marathon of 2012-2013 America's Funniest Home Videos episodes, on the Up network. The logo starts off in normal speed and then suddenly gets slower, with the Vin di Bona Productions logo following suit also slowed down. After the airings of said episodes (of which are notably not in split-screen credits like Up normally uses), the pitch of the logo got lower and lower. This might be an editing mistake on the network's part.
FX/SFX: Almost the same as the last logo.
Music/Sounds: Some sparkling and whooshing sounds merged with the last part of the previous logo's theme.
Availability: Same as the last 5 logos.

As it zooms out, slowly decelerating, the light shining on it, on a similar shade to the background of the previous logo, becomes slightly darker. When the logo fills about half of the screen, the background fades to black, with a continuous glow around the logo. Just before this happens, the text "ABC ENTERTAINMENT" fades on the bottom third of the screen, along with the copyright stamp straight under it.
FX/SFX: The zooming out, the changing of the light and the fading in of the text.
Music/Sounds: Same as the previous logo.
Availability: Seen on seasons 24 (later episodes), 25, and 26 (earlier episodes) of America's Funniest Home Videos.

(October 2, 2016-May 21, 2017)

Logo: On a black background, two brown transparent circles fly down about two-thirds of the screen while overlapping each other and reveal the ABC logo from before zooming out a bit, ending up with the same result as before but with the two circles still on the screen. "ABC ENTERTAINMENT" fades in at the bottom of the screen. with the copyright stamp from before below that.

Nicknames: "Aqua ABC III", "Start Here III"
Logo: Nearly the same as the last logo, but the background is a mixture of brown and gold and the ABC logo is seen at the top right and is facing us at the beginning.
Variant: An odd variant of this logo was spotted on a June 17, 2017 marathon of 2012-2013 America's Funniest Home Videos episodes, on the Up network. The logo starts off in normal speed and then suddenly gets slower, with the Vin di Bona Productions logo following suit also slowed down. After the airings of said episodes (of which are notably not in split-screen credits like Up normally uses), the pitch of the logo got lower and lower. This might be an editing mistake on the network's part.

As it zooms out, slowly decelerating, the light shining on it, on a similar shade to the background of the previous logo, becomes slightly darker. When the logo fills about half of the screen, the background fades to black, with a continuous glow around the logo. Just before this happens, the text "ABC ENTERTAINMENT" fades on the bottom third of the screen, along with the copyright stamp straight under it.
