The three versions of the Nine Christmas ID, as used last year:
Looks so half-arsed compared with previous movie idents.
The logo should really be 3D…
“Let’s take a clip from the movie and just slap the Nine logo on it.”
Almost looked like a new on-air package for 2018?
Possibly a case of wait & see?
I personally thought Nine’s Christmas/New Year On-Air Presentation in 2014 might’ve been a hint at a relaunch at the time (I guess like how the 2008/09 festive season graphics had some hints of the “Choose Nine” graphics), but of course nothing came out of that.

The slogan IMO is also so 2000s, dated and confusing, given they can’t say they’re “Number 1” due to ratings leadership by another network.

They could have used a better background track, such as remixing the old 2004 Still The One Promo music.
Wonder what Perth will get seeing as we lost Tim and Emmy.
The promo was a bit over the place, but visually good looking
That’s a pretty nice promo. Hope that’s a hint towards a presentation refresh too.
Did anyone else half expect Scotty to hit a blue or yellow button on the screen when he walked up?
The Melbourne Idents for 2018 still has Peter Hitchener who’s about to enter his 20th Year reading the Weeknight Bulletin, No Rugby League Stories in the City’s Main Bulletin except for the Storm, State of Origin and NRL Finals involving Storm.
I expect there will be a regional variation of the pro
