In 1996 on the 20th anniversary, TBS once again began referring to itself as "TBS Superstation", after five years as simply TBS; however, most network promos aired on the channel during this period verbally referred as simply "the Superstation" and network bugs during programs displayed the logo as simply "Superstation".

In 2004, TBS Superstation once again rebranded as simply "TBS", as such this logo was modified to only include a "TBS" wordmark in Myriad Bold Italic type; this logo was used only for a short time before its current logo debuted. It was taken from its 2002 logo.

2004–present

Beginning June 10, 2004, TBS debuted its new logo and look. This new look emphasized TBS' new focus on comedy, following TBS' parent company Time Warner's sale of its half of Comedy Central to Viacom.
