#TheIdentReview #100IdentsFrom100Channels #IR100
Adam, you were always one of the nicest and most genuine people i came across growing up, be it only for a couple of years. To see you reach this level of a platform makes me so proud. You for sure earned this and much more. So glad i found your channel, it makes my day to see your clear passions and talents become so widely regarded. Keep up the hard work. from Chris (A level performing arts etc)
Hi Chris! Thank you so so much for these lovely words! 😊 I'm really glad that you're enjoying the videos, having folks like yourself share in my passions and interests no matter how niche is honestly the most humbling feeling in the world 🥰
Great comment 👍
The Itv 2 are actually catchphrases, Like “Hammer Time”, “Rock & Role”, “Thai Fan” etc 😊
Lol good to know that itv2 has a sense of humor
As a french TV nerd (and proud of it), I'd like to quickly point out that the "ident" chosen for TF1 actually served as their sign-on/sign-off sequence.
In France, we don't exactly have proper idents with voiceovers on most of our channels. Some do have idents but they're often longer versions of commercial break bumpers, possibly to provide continuity in the branding.
But we DID have in-vision continuity in the past, with the Speakerines to tell us what's up next or what's on tonight or tomorrow.
Anyways, back to the normal video...Phew, I had to watch it multiple times to see which channels were featured. I thought "Orange" was about the internet service provider but nope. ^^' Wasn't expecting a literal orange. There sure was a lotta abstract stuff but hey...As we all know...
*IT JUST WORKS*
Too bad I wasn't there during the Premiere. But then again...It went on for 2 and a half hours, almost...XD
The HBO Feature Presentation ident will forever be one of the best television idents of the United States! I can see how much effort is put into the model of the city!
This 100th episode of the Ident Review is... _Brilliant!_ I like how you reviewed the idents from 100 channels, not only from England, but around the world as well! I also like how you also included the idents from other channels like PBS and National Educational Television (which was PBS's former name)! These idents are also so good and interesting! This might as well be the longest Ident Review in your channel's history!
The lens idents are reminiscent of the 2009 BBC HD idents, like Carousel and Ice Cream
Also well done on achieving such an amazing milestone. I’ve stuck around since the BBC Two Halloween Idents
Lovely stuff! The image at the start of the RTÉ One ident is a St. Brigid's Cross, which had been a part of the broadcasters logo until 1995, which was when this logo originated. It's a national symbol of Ireland and They're usually made around February (St. Brigid's Day) and hung around houses to get the Saints blessing and protection for the year
Just a little thing i noticed, when saying the name of RTÉ which actually stands for 'Radió Teleifís Éireann' (Radio, Television Ireland) you don't need to pronouce the fadá (accent) on the 'E', hope this helps!
Unfortunate shame for the Disney Channel one that you didn’t use any of the Red & Blue/Circles 1997-2003 batch for the U.K. version or it’s signature Youre Watching Disney Channel Wand IDs used since 2002/03 where each show’s cast draws the logo
I actually have a question? Would you ever do the RTE 1 RTE 2 and THE DEN(aka nowadays RTE jr) Idents or maybe the TG4 ones because they are wired as fuckkkk
1:27:00 The astronaut featured (the photo) is actually Buzz Aldrin because Armstrong did not permit MTV to use his likeness.
idents really aren't a thing here in the states. they are more like bumpers lasting only a few seconds. also, again, its pronounced a-luh-ba, not alba. also, alba is one of the last of the reith font users to have a symbol in it.
To be fair to the Weather Channel ident, most of the screen was black so that local cable systems could insert their own messages, whether the cable system ID or something else like an ad (a practice done a lot in the US called local insertion). And "The Weather Channel" was in a curved box, which later more explicitly referenced the curvature of a television. (Also: The current logo and Weather Channel identity were brought to us by Martin Lambie-Nairn.)
That's how I remember it, with local text awkwardly popping in looking much lower-quality than the original imagery. I also recall a channel number being displayed, which on my cable system was shown as channel A1 (tunable on my TV set as channel 99, compared with the next-highest channel number of 36 or 37).
Actually you need to know what Pick does to understand the Ident. It actually mainly shows a scattering of programmes previously shown by Sky such as Stargate SG-1, Stargate Atlantis and others. Therefore like you said a Mishmash.
To be honest I thought the BBC1 lens camera Ident package was a joke at first as this batch was first aired at 7pm on April Fools Pranks Day (4-1) but no the Beeb were not fooling us this is real bumpers/idents
Channel 4 should have a children's channel or block and call it C4
Channel 4 did have a strand for teenagers until 2012 called "T4", in the beginning of it they did play children's shows (this was 1998/99) but, later on they focused on the programming for teenagers, if that involved repeats of Friends and their own answer to CD:UK, "Pop World".
Funnily enough with the Pick ident, you say you're not sure what the channel showcased and it seemed like a mishmash...
If I'm remembering correctly you've hit the nail on the head as the channel was (is?) just a mishmash of shows shown on the main sky channels but making them available on Freeview.
It's mainly the traffic and ghost shows but sometimes American shows like Stargate SG-1 or Sky dramas which were originally shown months or sometimes years ago on Sky one.
I wonder if one day you'll try to rank your top 10, top 20, or top 100 idents of all time?
"For the 100th episode, we are doing something really special and that's gonna be a massive pain to edit"
Congrats on making it to 100 episodes man!!
Thank you!!
@@AdamMartyn please read my comment.
In the great words of Steps: "It's True What They Say"
Just a note. RTÉ is pronounced RTE. The thing on top of the E is a Fada from the Irish language, and doesn’t change the letters pronunciation. RTÉ stands for Raidió Teilifís Éireann (Radio Television Ireland).
They have a number of tv services, RTÉ One, RTE2, RTE Jr RTÉ News, and TRTE (a block on RTE2 for teens) their best idents are for One, junior and TRTE. There’s even a video from the illustrator showing the process of making the new TRTE idents.
For what it’s worth I’d love to see some of these idents make it to an ident review at some stage. The RTEjr idents are very popular here on UA-cam.
Also, just so you know, it’s RTÉ, not the RTÉ. Many who are used to the BBC make that mistake.
Great content, keep it up👍
what does a fada do then? does it indicate stress?
@@notthatntg Usually it would change the pronunciation like how it's said in the video, but most people in Ireland ignore the fada and just say RTE without changing the E's pronunciation
BSB Galaxy Club is the best example of organised catastrophe.
Excellent video Adam
If I can request a video can you have a look at the Sky Sports idents, maybe a history including the 'Your home of ...' and 'Feel it all' idents
Just a little note on 1:07:50. The channel is called TVI (as in Televisão Independente, Independent Television in english) and not TV1. That ident is amazing and I remember it as a child. Amazing service in the story of television. Congrats on the 100th episode and thank you!
Here we go, the 100th episode. Glad to see im not the only one obsessed with idents.
Thanks for the heart :)
I have a fascination for idents, had that since my childhood. Sometimes I loved the idents more then the shows and I wanted to see them instead
@@fairrodthecapacitor Same with me. I adored the CBBC " blobs" idents as a kid, for example. I honestly did not care for the shows on the channel at the time, aside from maybe Shaun the Sheep and Angry Kid (I'm an Aardman fan), I am more than happy to see those idents reviewed on this channel.
1:07:47 Do you mean TVI? The I means Independente.
1:29:07 This was during the time when VH1 was showing “I Love The 80s” (hence the cassette tape, Legos, and Transformers) and it’s spin-offs along with the dating show “I Love New York”.
I remember the German idents for a channel called Premiere that had a very late 80s early 90s font styling and also a countdown before programs started. I also remembered that this channel would show some programming and then scramble so never got to see the programs.
When can we get The Commercials Review next
You should do a video on your opinions on these old PBS Kids Ready to Learn/Raising Readers commercials that parodies famous movies and TV shows that were made in 2005-2007

27:47-28:00 Ident #21 ABC
FINALLY my country gets the UK Adam Martyn UA-cam channel recognition it deserves
1:09:09 Ident #52 Orange
Same here for NZ! We can thank Lambie-Nairm for that. But we also get...
1:59:59 Ident #87 Comedy Central
I don't think these idents were around for very long over here. Maybe about a year or two?Certainly didn't see them myself.
55:08 OH MY GOD
IT'S THE DISBEE
tbh i didn't watch the reveal video but either way i could've never guessed this would be a variety episode. sooo much to work with here. thank you for your labor of love. happy 100, adam
Soon as you said “Dave” I thought “Red Dwarf”. Definitely going to check out your podcast. Hope you’re enjoying it - one of my favourite shows
Can you put the timestamps for each ident in the description because some people are gonna be confused trying to find the specific idents in the entire compilation video. All I know is that the first ten channels are BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5 and Bluefrog's AMTV ident is the final one at the end of the entire video.
They've been added 😊
I remember reading somwhere that MTVs first ever video was Video Killed the Radio Star by The Buggles .....stay classy MTV lmao
Yep, that was the first video on MTV in the States. In Europe, it was "Money For Nothing" by Dire Straits. Which quite fittingly starts with the words "I want my MTV".
This is one of my favourite shows ever. Love from Portugal :) Final Edit: THAT WAS BRILLIANT, I genuinely can't believe how hard you worked on this. Also I realize it was BBC Parliament in the thumbnail, not the characters from Zig Zag. As a request for episode 102, maybe do some Portuguese idents? I wanna see your perspective! Cheers, and have a good one.
looking for one from the 60's possible 70s - black and white Trafalgar square with pigeons flying off - possible a 3 letter abbreviated word
You did the ITV Ipcress File Ident, thank you!!!! I've been waiting for your thoughts on this since it was first transmitted!
Been here since episode 2, haven't left since :)
oh and also you said RTE wrong. I can see why but it really annoys me a bit.
How do you pronounce it? I just say R-T-E
@@oinker1695 yea that's how you normally pronounce it, most of the continuity announcers say it that way
The People in ireland call it Raidio Telefis Eireann
@@NelvanaFan1971 Actually I'm Irish and I useally call it RTE 😅
Pick replaced Sky 3 in 2011
The 100th episode. This series is the whole reason I joined
The Christmassy Channel 5 ident, Sky Arts Abstract Art ident, VIVA ident (which made me feel like a teen again!), National Geographic ident and Lifestyle ident honestly stuck with me the most. Those and Sky 3D. I think I always liked the idents with colours/shapes. I actually remember seeing that Sky Arts ident on TV and loved it! This whole 2 hours and 22 minutes is so well done, entertaining and what a diverse bunch of idents you've picked to review. I bloody love Blue Frog's AMTV ident too, a fantastic way to end 🥰 So proud of you, always ❤️
Thank you so much my lovely 🥰❤ glad you had some favourites amongst the pack! And for being the best supportive bean on the planet 😘❤
1:13:31 oh hey, There's Bravo! Congrats for the 100th episode!! 😇👍🏻💙
He said us based channel bravo...but that was the British channel ident but I know us has a bravo channel
1:26:20 Neil Armstrong: “That’s one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind.”
I think the reason the ITV ident's colours change is it's meant to be a reference to the 3 primary colours, orange, (which is close enough to red) blue and green.
Pluto TV's description is possibly the most incorrect I've ever heard.
Arte ident you could put bsb movie channel Jingle over it...
Drama ident when the man pulls the curtain to see a car pul up should of had a van pulled up with drama on the side of it
Ark 2 could of used noahs ark all the animals walking on to it while the animals are all changing to brightly different colours and once the animals get insde a beam of colour lights or a rainbow beam out to the sky showing the ark 2 logo in the sky
Now that’s what I call The Ident Review Episode 100
Lol good one @can
Celebrate it!
The cbbc two ident has a CBBC Two Scotland version
I would like to see an Ident Review episode covering POP! channel.
100, 100. One hundred idents! Thank you on this beautiful journey of ident review. I was hoping to make my own ident review on Asian idents one day like China central television and more. But since it's the one hundredth episode, let's cherish this episode with a bang and cheers to the best creator of the ident review. On the serious note, thank you for taking me on this journey because as a kid I didn't know what idents are until I was growing up with television. So many colors, shapes, sizes, music and more that I can think of! In conclusion, idents are my life and soul as long as we can see the future of idents from bbc, itv, and all the channels we know and love.
I'm in the USA and I get Food Network, Paramount, NBC,ABC, CBS, The CW and more U.S. versions of the channels you featured.
Nice! It’s weird how I watched all of it when it premiered! Also, I would like to see a video of all the submissions for the 100th ident.
- Hgames
6:12: For those that don't know, it's from the 90s.
the ident for itv i got was tyne tees
The boomerang ident is so nostalgic to me
Bravo!
can U do TVNZ idents?
Congratulations on the 100th episode of IR! Here's to a hundred more, and I hope to see more idents from all around the world in the future. Cheers!
Thank you very much! I definitely want to do more international based episodes in the future 😊
Can you do pop! idents
A great batch of 100 Logos. Congratulations on 100 Episodes.
Thank you very much!
I feel that ITV 2 is a needed Ident change because 2015 has been a long time
Hi Adam, its time to make the suggestion I wanted to make. I want to suggest on SVT1's idents from 2003 to 2008. Those were my favorite ones during my childhood. I want to include them, but do you want me to include special idents like Xmas, easter and summer and idents with tv profiles? And shall I link them here?
Thx for this episode btw, made my evening!
P head from pbs
Compared to my home country of the US, channels in the UK like ITV, BBC, Channel 4 etc have an extremely calm nature to them compared to our networks ABC, NBC, and CBS and its affiliate networks ident wise. Ive always find the contrast so interesting 🤔. By the way, i love your videos ❤️ Keep up the good work!
Okay, there's a belated thank you later in this comment, but I just wanted to let you know that you made an error that you've probably already noticed. You mentioned that entry 55, Bravo, was a US based channel twice, but while there was a US channel called Bravo, the idents/logos you were showing were from the UK channel. I don't hate you for it though, everyone makes mistakes.
Listen... I discovered you around 2018 or 2019, and I've always had an interest in logos and TV identification, but I didn't subscribe to your channel immediately. I had been watching your channel on and off for about three and a half years before deciding to commit to a subscription (I had subscribed and unsubscribed from you before.) and I don't regret it. When ever I feel down, I just go to UA-cam to help me feel better, and you're one of the many UA-camrs I choose to actively watch an follow, even if not all the time. I love how passionate you are on these topics, and I'm glad I discovered you in the first place. Here's to another 100 episodes.
Adam Martyn, Makes the best TV Shows Ever 👌.
That first one made me really want a trampoline. Like no lie, I wonder by extension how many people watching the BBC bought one. I bet those English hopped right on those. Love BBC.
This is an absolutely amazing video, and you have done a brilliant job putting all the idents together :) It's great finding out about the background of the channels that the idents come from :) Here's to many more episodes of The Ident Review :)
Thank you Hayley 😊
How much worse does the BBC1 logo have to get?
TF1 should of actually been the first ident featured since it’s over a year older than BBC One, was the second television service to every launch, after a service that launched in Germany in either 1934 or early 1935, that permanently closedown near the end of the Second World War, and TF1 is the oldest television service still in existence. However until at least 1937 both TF1 and the television service from Germany broadcasted at resolution under 200 or 250 lines or at most about 380 lines, and were mechanical rather than fully electronic. This is unlike the BBC Television Service (now known as BBC One) which would use both the 240 mechanical television system by John Logie Baird until early 1937, and from its launch on 2nd November 1936, the 405 line television standard by Marconi-EMI which was the first fully electronic television system to be used in regular broadcasting. And NBC is the oldest television network service in the United States launching on 30th April 1939.
I love your channel and your ident reviews and I hope that you keep up the great work. You deserve every success that your UA-cam channel has had over the years. Good luck in the future.
Congrats on the 100th episode
Hello Adam! Could you make a video soon about the history of all idents and commercial bumpers of the masked troubadour from TSI in 1993-1997?😂
01:12:47 - God, I lived in Wales at a residential school for 3 years and I saw this shit in about 1998. My home is in East Anglia. I thought this fire stuff was fucking weird, in a good way. ....The dragon.
For 28. Yeah I'm offended that the Boomerang you grew up with and given the top spot is something different than the american toy idents or bumpers. Sorry that your childhood memory is fucked in britain.
Hey adam, I’m wondering.. what happened to video scaries? Is it canceled?
54:38 hi adam regarding your disney chanel ident i don’t know if you noticed the second hat resembling rabbit ears after being in the machine….. this would be a nod to oswald the lucky rabbit who was walt disneys original creation before he created mickey mouse, thaught i would just say and point out this easter egg in case you didn’t catch it 😊
The pie and ketchup 😂😂😂😂sorry I am 49 but I did laugh!
That twist at the end had me chuckling
100 episodes, that something to be proud of adam. That's more than even some actual tv shows. Great job adam. No matter what you do, I will always support you and your channel. Btw, I will try and get the big finish box sets featuring you.
I feel like Cbeebies was launched before 2002 because I remember watching it as a toddler in the late 90s and early 2000s Also, I'm pretty sure it's the channel that the Teletubbies aired on in the mid 90s.
This could be a Mandela effect though.
I 5hink that was just early bbc.. they had those shoes back then
As a british person I'm so glad you added other countries.
You should do an ident review of Sky Showcase.
I Miss When This Channel Had Some Variety... 😥
Wow the 100th episode with 100 idents very cool Great Video Adam.
You should do an episode on the film4 2014 refresh.
i've loved this show since 2019
That's is the longest logo review ident ever. Nice!
My favourite ident was MORE 4
Great video!
I definitely would like to see a Pop! Ident review.
I love the ident review! Hopefully we hit the 500th episode!!!
@@channel_moved_stop_subscribing wait what-
6:07, in nod to Four’s 40th year this year on the air.
best ident review
Congrats on 100 episodes of The Ident Review! Loved all the episodes so far, keep it up! Here's to another 100 episodes🥳🎉
Thank you so much 🥳🥳
02:13
Not gonna lie, I got some major Splatoon vibes from The Box ident, I guess it was just the bright vibrant colours
And congratulations on 100 episodes
Thanks Megan! 😊
@Adam Martyn You’re welcome!
Where did you get that video of that 50s woman with the tv?
What is your favourite and worst one for this episode
Love itt
What are bubble hits known as now?
I know I'm being a massive pain, I'm sure that S4C wasn't featured in this. Either way, fantastic video, Adam! Keep up the great work!
Thanks for the lovely comment Sophie! S4C does get a mention as No.54 in this review, starting at 1:12:02 - hope this helps! 😊
@@AdamMartyn Oh, how did I not see that? I feel so silly now! That is super helpful, cheers!
The dragon themed idents are absolutely gorgeous and ingenious! I just wish they were more creative with their newer idents.
