Not new. But would love to see them more often.
Glad theyâre keeping the tri-tone square idents. Classiest idents on TV of any network idents in the last 20 years.
Iâd like to see a 90 year ident that celebrates the use of the Lissajous Curve over the year.
Youâre in Luck, because Iâm watching Rage Iâve recorded yesterday and I see Below the Logo is the Number 90.
That in itself has never been a reasonable excuse, as all an ident does is push all content out by 7-12 seconds (or more depending on its length) within the hour. Unless thereâs an ad airing at :59m:30-59s which gets pushed into the next hour, it doesnât affect the hourly blocks on non-program matter.
Itâs really just an excuse to cut costs as they cost money to design/produce/manage. The longer a presentation package is used for, the cheaper it effectively becomes.
ABC aired this ID before the Olivia Newton-John memorial service yesterday:
This was the original ID from 2020:
The ABCâs Australia: Celebrating 90 years campaign won two golds at at the New York Festivals TV & Film Awards 2023.

Any mention at the up-fronts if the multichannels are being switched to HD? There was an article not long ago which mentioned changes to ABC News in 2025, but didnât say what.
No mention in the ABC Media Release:
