Seven’s graphics are quite ugly. That voice over on their opener sounds terrible. It’s like a voice over from a horror movie trailer.

Sounds like John Stanton. He was the narrator of the Grim Reaper TV commercial 
as well as the English language announcer for the Sydney 2000 Olympic Opening Ceremony.
Seven’s graphics are just basically their news graphics in a different palette while Nine have gone for a unique graphic set for the last week.
