History
On February 5, 1986; it was launched as Spanish International Network; and was an affiliate of it; until June 1987; when it was bought by Televisa and was re-organized as Univision. In 1987; WZGL became an official affiliate of Univision. In that exact same year; its rival; NetSpan; now Telemundo also changed their name.

Not much was known between 1987 and 1990; because there was barely any activity going on. The last important thing was 1987; when Univision was trademarked. 1989 came with a new logo for WZGL; though this only lasted for 1 year; before being retired in 1990.

The logo introduced in 1990 lasted a long time. It had a lot of variants. The first variant was an exclusive WZGL variant with 4 colors; but reversed as an April Fools 1991 joke. There were loads of variants; all very funny; some creative; and some; not so much. Background variants were introduced in 1995. These were often used in holiday stuff. However, these creative things had to stop between September and December 2001 all because of 9/11. 2002 came and those creative variants all came back.

Ten years later, the usage of the logo had to unfortunately end; but since Univision liked doing those fun creative things they did between 1990 and 2012; they decided to be more helpful; unlike Nickelodeon; and begin doing creative variants for their new 3D logo in 2014. Even after the recent logo change in 2019; they STILL kept the creative variants.
