'''LogoVisuals:''' Against a {{color|blue|bluish}} starfield background that's almost similar to the one from the previous logo with some nebular clouds, wethere seeis a much more detailed Earth globe zooming out from the front right to the center which is now rotating forward this time like the other Universal logos. As the globe reaches the center, a sunburst appears flashing on the top-right part of the globe. As this happens, the text "'''UNIVERSAL'''TELEVISION", in the same font as before with the abstract arc above it, appears rotating in from the left and making a stop in front of the globe as the sunburst dims down a bit. Some light rays are seen behind the globe and some nebular clouds are seen moving in front of the globe. The byline "A Division of NBCUniversal" appears under the logo.
'''Trivia:''' This logo was created and animated by Imaginary Forces. The logo also has some elements from the 1991 [[Universal Television (1963-1998)|Universal Television]] logo.

'''Music/SoundsAudio:''' A three-note (F-D-E♭) orchestrated theme, consisting of the first two notes of the three-note NBC chimes jingle and a final note that sounds similar to that of the 1997 [[Universal Pictures]] fanfare, composed by Jerry Goldsmith.
