Background

CBS Sunday Morning is a news-magazine created by CBS News which debuted on January 28, 1979 with Charles Kuralt as the anchor. Sunday Morning is known for its iconic sun logo and its theme which is the fanfare "Abblasen" composed by 18th century composer Gottfried Reiche.

1st Intro (January 28, 1979-1993)

Visuals: We see a light yellow sun rise on a black background. When the sun reaches the middle, it zooms backwards and then an orange CBS eye logo zooms forward with a trail following it. Then we see the days "SUNDAY", "MONDAY", "TUESDAY", "WEDNESDAY", "THURSDAY" and "FRIDAY" (in a blocky font) scroll in from top to bottom. The days move forward towards the viewer. Then a orange trail is seen and "SUNDAY" follows the orange trail backwards. When it reaches the end of the trail, there's a flash that reveals the text "CBS News" on the top of "SUNDAY" and the word "MORNING" below "SUNDAY". The background fades to the set afterward.

Variants: Starting in 1986, the day "SATURDAY" is added to the intro, the CBS eye is red and the sun is orange. Also, "SUNDAY", "MONDAY", ""TUESDAY", "WEDNESDAY", "THURSDAY" and "FRIDAY" are in yellow and "SATURDAY" is in purple when the days scroll and when the days move forward towards the viewer.

Technique: Scanimate.

Audio: Gottfried Reiche's "Abblasen" performed by Don Smithers on a baroque trumpet.

Availability: Appeared on episodes of CBS Sunday Morning of the era.

2nd Intro (1993-2003)

Visuals: Unknown

Technique: CGI

Audio:
