===1973–1977 (primary), 1977–1986 (secondary)===
On September 23, 1972, when ABS-CBN was forcibly shut down as a result of martial law, BBC was launched on November 4, 1973. Its first logo was a red-cyan-green foreground with its circular arcs below and the 'bbc' initials in compressed ITC Avant Garde Bold above and number '2' logo in Bauhaus Regular font below inside its shape logo.
===1977–1978===
In 1977, BBC launched its new logo. The initials 'bbc,' this time, were compressed in Bauhaus Regular connected on upper left arc of number '2' heavy-bold logo.
===1978–1981===
The last logo was a quadrilateral shape containing its blue & red sides and number '2' logo in Franklin Gothic Heavy with its low-size high distant dark shadow in zero-degree angle in the middle shape and the 'BBC' initials in an extended Franklin Gothic Heavy in the right shape.
==City2 Television==
===1981–1986===
In 1981, BBC was rebranded as City2 Television as part of its plan to make the network more competitive in terms of programming. The City2 logo shows the 'city2' text in low compressed ITC Avant Garde Bold with its same straight strokes outside.
===1985–1986 (temporary)===
City2 ended operations temporarily on March 20, 1986 at the height of the People Power Revolution along with RPN and IBC (temporarily), after reformist soldiers disabled the transmitter that was broadcasting then-president Marcos' inauguration from the Malacañang Palace. Several months later, City2 shutted down on September 7, 1986 due to an unknown reason. Upon Corazon Aquino's subsequent accession to the presidency, BBC, RPN and IBC (collectively known as "Broadcast City") were sequestered and placed under the management of a Board of Administrators tasked to operate and manage its business and affairs subject to the control and supervision of Presidential Commission on Good Government. DWWX-TV was relaunched as ABS-CBN on September 14 the same year, as well as its Cebu, Bacolod, Iloilo and Tacloban affiliate stations.
