I miss the days when channels used to make a big deal out of the little things like start ups, close downs, etc... This is a whole lot better than suddenly appearing with a "We'll be back at 6am" type caption It’s quite surreal but I definitely agree with you.

SBS used to sign off with a simple screen with their logo and the text "goodnight." As you say, it might seem pointless, but it really is those small touches that add that little bit extra to something. That is very nice – I didn’t know ABC2 were doing that.
