About[]

EriLise Productions, Inc. is an American-Norwegian animation studio and production company based in Oslo founded in 1901 and currently owned by Ericka Enriquez, Paul Claerhout and Lise Alcorn, which is best known for its comedy films. It also provided directing, script writing, and production to its clients.

History[]

The company was founded as Pathex (Pathex) in Oslo, Norway on January 10, 1901, by the four brothers Charles, Émile, Théophile and Jacques Pathéx. During the first quarter of the 20th century, Pathex became the largest film equipment and production company in the world, as well as a major producer of phonograph records.

Logos[]

Logos[]

1st logo (1901-1921): On a black (or grey/worn-out black) background, we see a still image of a rooster in white (sometimes orange) posing as if it is about to crow. Below it is the cursive text "Pathéx fréres".

Variants[]

  • There are alot of colored variants.
  • There is also a variant with no rooster and "Editeurs" probably replaced the rooster?
  • There's also a variant, which looks to be a rip-off of Burberry, strange.
  • There's also some variants, without text.

2nd logo (1921-1925): On a black background, we see a rosster on the top "K.O.K.", also is in the top, "Marques Déposée", in the middle and "Pathéx Fréres", wrapped.

Variant[]

  • A brighter variant exists.

3rd logo (1925-1926): We see a chicken, moving a bit. Then we see the word "Pathéx", with the tops of the "t and "h" connected and "Distributors" below. On the left and right sides are circles with rooster drawings in crowing stances, both in opposite directions.

4th logo (1926-1927): We see the word "Pathéx", with the tops of the "t and "h" connected and "Distributors" below. On the left and right sides are circles with rooster drawings in crowing stances, both in opposite directions.

5th logo (1927-1928): On a black background, we see the white, abstract rooster that crows again, which is written in a graffiti-like style, albeit with a fluorescent white drawing. Underneath, we see "Pathéx - Baby" with underlined below the rooster, and the "-" is inside the leg of rooster.

6th logo (1928-1929): On a black background, we see a coin and a rooster in white, with a shining on it. Text are seen embossed in a stone, with "PATHEX" and "TRADE - MARK" on the top and bottom below.

7th logo (1929-mid 1929): On a black background, we see a white triangle with a filmreel overlaps the triangle, with the 3 words "SAFETY FILM" on the left, right and top, albeit is in the outlined top. We fades in to see the words:

PATHE-X-SCOPE Presents

in a script font, which then overlaps the emblem.

Closing Variant[]

On the closing variant, the text "A PATHE-X-SCOPE FILM" is appeared on the emblem.

8th logo (mid 1929-1943): On a black background, we see the word "Pathéx", with the tops of the "t" and "h" connected and "Distributors" below. On the left and right sides are circles with rooster drawings in crowing stances, both in opposite directions.

9th logo (1943): Inside a white circle on a black BG, we see a rooster, which seems to be standing on top of a model globe. Below it is the word "Pathéx", with the tops of the "t" and "h" connected. The word is in white, except the areas which overlap the circle, which are in black. The rooster crows.

10th logo (1945-1948): We see the front of a skyscraper at dusk. A black square with a picture of a rooster is in the middle of the building. The large text "PATHEX" is beneath the square while a marquee with the text "PICTURES LTD" beneath "PATHEX". The camera then pans down to reveal that the text is part of a building awning with "PRESENTS" encased in a rectangle.

11th logo (1948-1949): Over a light grey background we see a circle with a rooster drawn on it, surrounder by stars. Under the circle the word "Pathéx" in scripty font is seen. Under it, the words "PICTURES LTD." are.

12th logo (1949-1955): On a grey background with some random shadows, we see the following:

A

Pathex Television

Production

...with "Pathex", "Television" and "Production" in their famous script in white letters, with a prominent shadow effect over the background.

Variant[]

Some shows such as Time for Beany would have the text at the bottom of the title card reading as "a Pathex Television Presentation".

13th logo (1959-1968): It's the same as their movie counterpart of the time, but with several differences:

  • This time it's referred as "Pathex Pictures", not as "A Pathex Picture".
  • The text "PRODUCED BY", in a Times New Roman-like font, appears above the Pathex name.

Variants[]

  • On the game show Seven Keys, an in-credit version of the print logo of the time period was seen. This one has no sky and the word "Pictures" was replaced with "TELEVISION PRODUCTIONS INC." stacked word by word and on the bottom of the mountain is a byline reading "A SUBSIDIARY OF Pathex Pictures Corporation" with "Pathex Pictures Corporation" in its trademark script.
  • Another superimposed variant exists of in-credit text that reads "in association with PARAMOUNT TELEVISION PRODUCTIONS, INC.".

14th logo (1968-1969): On a blue background, we see a black mountain and the words "A Gulf+Western Company" in white. Suddenly, a white filled-in circle border makes an iris-in effect behind the mountain. The "Pathex" name, which is written in its majestic script font and appears in black, pops in while 22 white stars appear around the border, starting in the middle and going downward. The word "Pathex" immediately moves upward to make room for "Television" below it, in the same typeface. Below the logo are two subtitles, both in white: "COPYRIGHT © MCMLXVIII BY PATHEX PICTURES CORPORATION. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED" in a more standard type, and "Pathex Pictures Corporation" in the Paramount logo font.

Variants[]

One of 6 visual variants were used:

  • For 2/3 of its existence, a small pre-1968 Pathex's print logo appeared alongside the copyright information, while the rest of the 1968 mid season had just the text.
  • Variants 3 and 4 had the standard format as the first two, with the addition of the Norway Corporation, as credited on Star Trek.
  • For variants 5 and 6, the logo appears with the copyright, but without the Gulf+Western byline. This was featured on Mission: Impossible and Mannix, respectively.

15th logo (1968-1969): Against a yellow or red background is a blue or white rectangle which is split into two sections; the left and the larger contains the words:

PATHEX

TELEVISION

A DIVISION OF PATHEX PICTURES CORPORATION

Besides the last line, all are set in Eurostile font (the company byline appears to be set in Trade Gothic font). "PATHEX" has the largest typeface, and the other two lines are progressively smaller. On the smaller right side of the rectangle is a Pathex logo with a blue or white border and white or blue mountain. The picture zooms-up to the logo, which kind of looks like a blue and white version of the "Rising Circle" ("A Gulf+Western Company" and copyright message appears at the bottom of the white mountain) except the word "Television" is not present. Also, the copyright stamp appears when the picture zooms in.

Variants[]

  • There was a variation seen on Here's Lucy in which the mountain has no bylines or copyrights.
  • Around September-November 1968, the word "Corporation" is missing on the rectangle on some shows.
  • Star Trek has a special variant with Norway Corporation credited.
  • On Mission: Impossible and Mannix, the logo appears with the copyright only. This will linger on through the first 2 months of M:I's 4th season and Mannix's 3rd season, as the first 4 episodes didn't feature the copyright on the ending theme just yet.
  • A version exists with the Pathex copyright. This was seen between 1969-1971.
  • On Mission: Impossible and Mannix, this logo appears with the copyright only.
  • A still variant with the text "IN ASSOCIATION WITH" above exists on reruns of The Brady Kids.
  • A color-faded version can be spotted on the Visual Entertainment, Inc. DVD print of the season 1 Petrocelli episode "Mirror, Mirror on the Wall...".

16th logo (1969-1977): Same as the theatrical 1968 logo, although it could be either matted or cropped to fit TV screens.

17th logo (1977-1984): We see an abstract crown motif zooming in. Then two letters, a P and a E, lock in between the crown from left and right of the screen. The crown evolves into a H, as the company name "Pathex Productions" fades in.

18th logo (1984-1990):Over a purplish background with lots of stars, we see tons of skinny light rays in shades of blue and green coming from a source of light in the center. All at the same time, a blue star zooms up while "PATHEX" (in a similar color to the star) zooms out. The star moves inside with the "H" and a set of 3 similarly-colored bars form under "PATHEX", positioned prefectly with the ends of text.

Variations[]

  • This logo was shown in all white with or without "Distributed By" above on a navy blue background.
  • At the beginning of some programs, "PRESENTS" in white similar to the company's name font, fades in under the company's name.

19th logo (1990-1992): On a backdrop of vertical bars that resemble a doorway (the bars are in this order, for each side, 4 brown, one red, and gradiants of blue resembling the "door") we see "PATHEX" in silver, on the center of the screen. Below the "PATHEX" text are 2 sets of 3 silver bars that switch sides and at the same time, a silver triangle rotates itself from the bottom and fits between the 2 sets of lines. Between the 2 lines are a space formed with help from the "H" and triangle that resembles a star. Then, quickly, a white star flashes in this space, and fades out.

20th logo (1992-1994)[]

On a white background, three people (Redd Beauford on the left, an unknown person in the middle, and Tom Ridgewell on the right) are seen with quirky expressions on their faces; they look somewhat distorted (likely mirrored). The pictures are all in boxes and in grayscale. Copyright information is seen below.

Variants[]

  • In 1993, the picture changed to three people (Redd Beauford on the left, Tom Ridgewell in the middle, and Paul Claerhout the right; it could be Paul Claerhout, who voiced the 8th logo) with vivid expressions while the photo is distorted.
  • "The Nanna & Lil' Puss Puss Show" VHS tape from Expanded Entertainment replaced the people with an animation where Lil' Puss Puss keeps hiccuping and Nanna is trying to shut him up throughout the credits. Puss Puss then tries to hold his hiccups in, expanding his head until it explodes, with blood covering Nana in the process as she too begins hiccuping. Copyright information appears above.
  • The Nanna & Lil' Puss Puss short "The Honeymoonies" replaced the people with a static image of Puss Puss holding up Nana's disembodied head and presenting it to the whole world with his other hand as he smiles. Copyright information is seen below.

21st logo (1994)[]

We see a road with cacti spread about it on the sides. The camera zooms into a drive-in theater, with large signs depicting "The Demo: Now Showing On Screen 1". Once it fully zooms into a screen, we see an animated pegasus/unicorn flying in the air as normal. Helix the Cat (who looks rough) flies by using his tails as a propeller and the pegasus or unicorn looks at him for a moment. Helix motions toward the audience in a pose that seems like he was gonna whisper to them as he flies offscreen. Suddenly, the pegasus/unicorn is in shock and it crashes into a giant rock formation, with the big letters "PTX" carved into it (a la 20th Century Studios|TCF). The camera slowly pans out.

22nd logo (1994)[]

On a background that looks like a multicolored light's rays and an abstract, multi-sided, pointy shape, we see a green pencil sketch turn from a "P" into an "T" and finally into an "X".

23rd logo (1994)[]

Just three pieces of paper being crumpled over and over, each saying the letters "P", "T", and "X".

24th logo (1994)[]

The logo consists of "PTX?" in a bold color-changing font spinning on a rainbow background.

25th logo (1994)[]

The word "PTX" places itself by letter on a textured floor. The letters are textured as well.

26th logo (1994-1998, 1998-2002)[]

Inside a red-orange circle on a very dark red background, we see a male purple cat (which is Helix) with two tails looking like DNA and a big pink human-like nose, wearing a white lab coat with a purple bowtie on it, from the back. In a circle around the circle containing the creature, we see the pink text "PTX PRODUCTIONS INC." in a cartoony font. He then turns his head to look at us, and jumps to face us while holding his arms out. The text shines.

Variant[]

A prototype version had a black background, red, puffy text, and a rougher version of Helix having an even more unfriendly appearance. He simply raises his finger in the air and adorns a Cheshire Cat grin. Helix is also contained within a solid, blue circle.

27th logo (2002-2006)[]

On a tropical background complete with a beach, and a sunset, we see the black, lowercase text "pathex productions" with "pathex" bigger and spaced and "productions" underneath, near the top of the screen, and two double helix coconut trees twisting behind a bush. A monkey jumps up from behind the trees with his back turned to us. Then, he turns around, revealing that he has a parietal eye, and waves at us, saying "Hi, I'm Paul!"

Variants[]

There are six variants, which could be viewed on dnahelix.com before Adobe Flash Player ended support:

  • Double Your Pleasure: Two Pauls appear and say "Hi, we're Paul!"
  • Bilingual Paul: Paul is wearing a (barely visible) hat and a mustache, when he turns around, he says "¡Hola, soy Pablo!", which means "Hi, I'm Paul!" in Spanish.
  • Backwards Masking Paul: The logo is played in reverse, making Paul sounding like he's saying "Oh, my eye!". The audio for this variant is actually from a different take.
  • Paul Blooper #1: Paul forgets his lines, and says "So what do you want me to say now?"
  • Paul Blooper #2: Paul forgets his lines again, and says "Hi, I'm.....line?"
  • Coffee Break Paul: Paul is missing. A man off-screen (which is Redd Beauford) says softly, "Paul?".

28th logo (2006 - 2008)[]

Fading in to a medium/dark blue background (depending on film quality), a strange dark object emerges from the top right corner and zooms into the middle, leaving a chyron trail as it does. As it stops zooming, the dark shadows on the object disappear, revealing itself to be the Sunbow Productions logo. It consists of an orange circle with a yellow gradient on the edges, and surrounding it is the text "PATHEX PRODUCTIONS" in the same colors, but with the pattern reversed, in a font similar to that of the Jeopardy! logo. The text is arranged in a circle pattern, which are supposedly made to resemble "sunrays".

29th logo (2008 - 2011)[]

On a shady blue background, 4 small dots (2 are white, one is orange, and one is a dark shade of pink), come in from all sides to merge in the middle, causing a small flash of light to appear and a off-center orange circle to grow. As it reaches its maximum size, 2 6-pointed lights appear and rotate in opposite directions of each other briefly, and the circle shrinks a bit, fading to the same logo from before, but with a saturated color scheme and black outlines. 2 pings then appear, on top of the "X", and another on the bottom of the "S".

30th logo (2011 - 2015)[]

On a black background, the faint edges of some letters can be seen as a yellow circle, representing the sun, rises up. Eventually, the entire logo brightens up to reveal the Didot text "PATH X", with the earth (Ericka) being an E to form "PATHEX". Below the sun, "ENTERTAINMENT" can be seen in a Helvetica font. All the text is in blue.

31st logo (2015 - 2017)[]

A spinning globe of the Earth (Ericka) as an E zooms out to reveal a space background with a shining light in the top left corner. The Earth (Ericka) veers into center right as several gold and white bars slide in from the left and right side of the screen, which fold up to form the Pathex text, with "PATH X" going up one-by-one and "ENTERTAINMENT" going up in one piece. Lastly, the logo fades to a 2D version on a white background, with a black 'P', a maroon 'A', a turquoise 'T', a lighter blue and purple 'H', a nearly cyan 'X', (still in 3D) and a purple/cool purple E.

32nd logo (2017 - 2018)[]

On a blue background, the light purple, brown, tidal wave, dark red & blue, and gold text "PATH X" can be seen, as a maroon E rises up from the bottom. As it settles into position, the entire logo brightens up, turning the background turquoise, and the circle gaining lines via a wipe effect, making it similar to Sony Wonder's sun at the time. "ENTERTAINMENT" fades in below the text, spaced out to fit the length of it, and the byline as well. The E also gains a shadow.

33rd logo (2018 - 2020)[]

On a forest background complete with a lake, and a clear noon sky, we see the black and brown, lowercase text "ERILISE productions" with "ERILISE" bigger and "productions" underneath, near the top of the screen, and 102 forest trees still and not moving behind a setting behind the woods. Ericka jumps up from behind the trees with his back turned to us. Then, he turns around, revealing that he has no parietal eye, and waves at us, saying "Hi, I'm Ericka!"

Rem(a)inder[]

In 2021, Ericka got removed in the Ericka throne to reduce lag, and sadly can never be seen again. However the theme still exists in logo history vids, because if you look at its theme file you can see that before Omation's 2017 logo as O-Ericka, the theme is different, the sequence goes Omation, Ericka, confirming the theme still exists, only said being that the filter is gone.

It was changed to Ericka, except the background is 12:03 instead of 12:06.

Variants[]

  • Double Your Pleasure: Two Erickas appear and say "Hi, we're Ericka!"
  • Spanish Ericka: Ericka is wearing a (barely visible) hat and a mustache, when he turns around, he says "¡Hola, soy Juan!", which means "Hi, I'm Paul!" in Spanish.
  • Backwards Masking Ericka: The logo is played in reverse, making Ericka sound like he's saying "No, my eye!". The audio for this variant is actually from a different take.
  • Ericka Blooper #1: Ericka forgets his lines, and says "So, what do you want me to say now?"
  • Ericka Blooper #2: Ericka forgets his lines again, and says "Hi, I'm.....(REDACTED)!!"

  • Papiamento Ericka: Ericka is wearing a cap, when he turns around, he says "Hola, mi ta Ericka!", which means "Hi, I'm Ericka!" in Papiamento, and says "Nailed it!" while lowering his fist.

34th logo (2020 - 2021)[]

At least Rook has a nice view. Isabella is showing of his maw. Catchy you being this way, I'd honestly jump right in and let her swallow me down with her mawshot.

35th logo (2021 - mid 2021)[]

Victorio decided to draw Lucy a picture of himself carrying a piece of steak and Miss Wolftail really loves steak because she's a wolf and wolves eat steak.

36th logo (2021 - 2022)[]

On a forest background complete with a lake, and a clear noon sky, we see the black and brown, lowercase text "ERILISE productions" with "ERILISE" bigger and "productions" underneath, near the top of the screen, and 102 forest trees still and not moving behind a setting behind the woods. Ericka jumps up from behind the trees with his back turned to us. Then, she turns around, revealing that she has no parietal eye, and says "Ah, what a swell day."

  • Double Your Pleasure: Two Erickas appear and say "Ah, what a swell d- IMPOSTER!!"
  • Spanish Ericka: Enrrique replaces Ericka and blows his trumpet nose.
  • Backwards Masking Ericka: The logo is played in reverse, making Ericka sound like she's saying, "They'd loosen a tow, ha" or ". yad llews a tahw ,hA". The audio for this variant is actually from a different take.
  • Ericka Blooper #1: Ericka forgets her lines, and says "So, what do you want me to say now?"
  • Ericka Blooper #2: Ericka forgets his lines again, and says "Ah, wh.... Line?"

37th logo (2022 - 2022)[]

The curve and the Sonic-like logo glows up ominously and reveals itself. Then the text saying "ERILISE" and "productions". Then Sonic rises up, and raises his index finger while opening his mouth, and spins around, and closes his mouth, and wags his finger.

38th logo (2022 - 2023)[]

The weird Roy eating scene was found.

39th logo (2023 -)[]

Feed is ready to show his insides, he closes his eyes and opens his mouth wide, revealing his insides for 4 secs, and closes his mouth and says '/u/'.

Musique/Sounds[]

1st logo: Silent, or sometimes may have featured the accompanying score.

2nd logo: Depends on the variant.

3rd logo: Silent, or (often) had the accompanying score over it.

4th logo: Silent, or (often) had the accompanying score over it.

5th logo: None.

6th logo: None.

7th logo: Silent, or the opening theme.

8th logo: Silent, or (often) had the accompanying score over it.

9th logo: Just the rooster crowing. On silent films with this logo, it had the films accompanying score over it.

10th logo: An uninspired horn fanfare.

11th logo: The opening theme to the film.

12th logo: None or the intro and outro of the series.

13th logo: A majestic fanfare.

14th logo: The two main themes from Desilu Productions.

15th logo:

16th logo: A re-orchestrated version of the last six notes to Paramount Pictures' 1987 theatrical fanfare, which sounds suspiciously similar to the Star Wars theme (but it's actually a re-arrangement of Elsie Janis/Jack King's Paramount on Parade by Jerry Goldsmith, first heard on trailers for Paramount Pictures since 1976). There are two arrangements of the theme. Many of these logos are plastered onto old shows with no music.

17th logo: None.

18th logo A generic orchestrated fanfare that starts out with an ascending roll-up, then a 4-note tune that sounds similar to the ABC News theme, ending up in orchestral warbling sounding almost similar to the Ruby-Spears jingle.

19th logo: A synth fanfare. "Wild West C.O.W.-Boys of Moo Mesa" had a shorter version of this theme.

20th logo: The end theme of the short.

Music/Sounds Variants[]

  • On the Nanna & Lil' Puss Puss short "Off the Record", the vocals are backmasked. When the music ends and fades out, it then fades back in and ends with a broken glass sound effect.
  • The VHS variant uses a fiddle version of the theme composed by Paul Claerhout (used in the shorts as background music), which is accompanied by various sound effects that correspond to the actions displayed on screen.
  • On the short "The Honeymoonies", the audio is very slightly higher-pitched.

[]

An excerpt from Tchaikovsky's Piano Concerto 1 plays throughout the animation. This becomes distorted once the pegasus flies into the giant rock. A final, triumphant chord plays as the rock structure is revealed.

[]

A silent film-like piano piece.

[]

A gurgling sound, spitting, and a burp.

[]

A quirky, fast-paced woodwind theme.

[]

Two people shout "Yay! Boo! Yay!" alternating between letters as each letter appears. This sound effect is heard on the SGC2C episode "Sequel".

[]

The best way to describe the noises heard is two series of echoing, bouncy, high-pitch, distorted "guitar notes", followed by an echoing beat, and a loud, echoing (SPROING) sound as Helix finishes his jump. The prototype had a stock high-pitched "phone-voice" sound.

[]

A happy tropical xylophone sounder, most likely a stock piece. Tropical birds and insects can be heard in the background, but only on the original variant. Paul's voice is an innocent, high-pitched man's voice.

Music/Sounds Variants[]

There are French and Russian dubs of this logo.

28th logo: A high-pitched synth "whoosh" effect, followed by a synth keyboard-type chime that has a "wow"-like pitch and a echo effect. All this was performed by Don Dannemann, Tommy Goodman, and Norris O'Neill.

29th logo: A short, somber piano/bass/synth tune with a few sparking sounds at the beginning and two synth dings at the end when the logo shines. The end theme may also finish over it.

30th logo: A dramatic 6-note woodwind fanfare with a "trill" at the end. Carole Heller is the composer.

31st logo: A rock theme with a few whooshes added.

32nd logo: The sound of a rooster crowing on The Brothers Flub. Otherwise, the ending theme of the show.

33rd logo: A happy tropical xylophone sounder, most likely a stock piece. Tropical birds and insects can be heard in the background, but only on the original variant. Ericka's voice sounds like Charleyyy when he appears at the start of every episode.

34th logo: Isabella panting and weird whoosing.

35th logo: A Boney M.-like "oooo" noises, most likely a stock piece. Tropical birds and insects and people can be heard in the background, but only on the original variant. Ericka's voice sounds like Ally at the end of AllyAnimation's videos.

36th logo: A picture of Victorio carrying a piece of steak and Miss Wolftail panting excitedly.

37th logo: Sandro's theme and (barely heard) whooshes.

38th logo: Royscene.

39th logo: Feed saying 'ahhh' and 'oooh'

Scare Factor[]

1st logo: None.

5th logo: None.

6th logo: None, but some might feel uncomfortable due to the shakiness.

8th logo: None.

9th logo: Low to medium. The rooster crowing and dark atmosphere may surprise some.

11th logo: Low.

12th logo: Low to high. The surprise for getting such an odd Paramount logo will get someone.

13th logo: Low.

  • Original Variant: Low to medium. The fanfare might get to some.
  • The Lucy Show/Mission Impossible Variant: Low to high, due to the battling loud fanfare.

4th logo: It depends on the variant:

  • 1968-1969: None. It’s nice.
  • 1969-1971 Closet Killer Variant: None. It’s also nice.

15th logo: Depending on the music:

  • 1969-1970: See above.
  • Circa 1971: None. It’s good.
  • Circa 1972: None. It’s also good.
  • With the closing theme of the show/Silent version: None. It’s boring.

16th logo: Low to medium. The fanfare might unnerve some.

17th logo: None.

18th logo: Low to medium

19th logo: Low to medium

20th logo: It depends on the variant.

  • Low to high for the original two logos. They appear jarringly, and the end music, faces, and mere surprise of seeing them instead of the other DNA logos might get to some. None to minimal for those used to seeing them, or find them to be kind of funny.
  • Medium to high for the Off the Record variant, as the sounds can catch some people off-guard.
  • Low to nightmare for the VHS variant. The somewhat grotesque cartoon animation could unnerve many, especially those uncomfortable with the sight of blood.
  • High to nightmare for "The Honeymoonies" variant. The disembodied head, the expression on Nana's face, the blood on the floor, the somewhat evil grin on Puss Puss, and the excessive detail will definitely unnerve a lot of sensitive people, even if it's cartoony and on a white background. However, the scare factor could be lower and can also be considered funny to those who are used to the short's morbid content.

21st logo: Minimal to medium. The music changing at the end will probably put more than a few viewers off, but at the same time cause some to chuckle. Regardless, this is much tamer than the previous logo.

22nd logo: None to minimal.

23rd logo: Low to high. It might startle more than few viewers with it's jarring appearance.

24th logo: None to minimal.

25th logo: Low. Some people might be rattled with the startled appearance.

26th logo: Low to high. The weird noises and Helix might catch you off guard if you weren't expecting and haven't seen it before, expecting a different logo and wind up with this, but otherwise it's harmless. Minimal to low for the prototype version.

27th logo: It depends on the logo.

  • Normal: Minimal. This logo has scared a few children though, and Paul's third eye can startle some viewers, but most people should be fine watching it.
  • Double Your Pleasure: Low, due to both of the 2 Pauls and the same reason above.
  • Bi-Lingual Paul: Low. Paul's mustache, along with his 3 eyes, might catch you off-guard.
  • Backwards Masking Paul: Low to medium, due to Paul staring suddenly at the beginning, still with 3 eyes. It's sometimes funny because it's in reverse.
  • Paul Blooper #1: Low to medium (bordering on high) for those seeing it the first time. Paul suddenly coming up and saying something different can be a little surprising, although it's intended to be funny.
  • Paul Blooper #2: Low to medium. Paul saying almost the original line but ending it with the word "line" in a confused ending can also be a little surprising, but, like the first blooper, it's intended to be funny.
  • Coffee Break Paul: None to minimal. The sudden voiceover saying "Paul?" might catch some off-guard, though the voiceover speaking in a soft tone can also comfort and relieve some.

Regardless, some people find that Paul is cute and funny, and this is a memorable logo. And thanks to Paul's innocence, the present-day DNA Productions logo is a lovable classic.

28th logo: Minimal. The whoosh may get to some, but this logo is near-cool.

29th logo: None to high. The loud succeeding fanfare may get to some, but this logo is very cool.

30th logo: Low, as the dramatic fanfare can scare some, but I've gotta say this logo is British-ly cool.

31st logo: Low to medium. The loud music and flash can get to some, but this logo is out-of-the-world cool.

32nd logo: None to low, as the rooster crowing from earlier can scare some.

33rd logo: It depends on the logo.

  • Normal: Minimal. This logo has scared a few children though, but most people should be fine watching it.
  • Double Your Pleasure: Low, due to both of the 2 Johns and the same reason above.
  • Bi-Lingual John: Low. John's mustache, along with his 2 eyes, might catch you off-guard.
  • Backwards Masking John: Low to medium, due to John staring suddenly at the beginning, still with 2 eyes. It's sometimes funny because it's in reverse.
  • John Blooper #1: Low to medium (bordering on high) for those seeing it the first time. John suddenly coming up and saying something different can be a little surprising, although it's intended to be funny.
  • John Blooper #2: Low to medium. John saying almost the original line but ending it with the word "line" in a confused ending can also be a little surprising, but, like the first blooper, it's intended to be funny.
  • Coffee Break John: None to minimal. The sudden voiceover saying "Uhh... John?" might catch some off-guard, though the voiceover speaking in a soft tone can also comfort and relieve some.

34th logo: None to high, due to Isabella's slobbering.

35th logo: None to high, due to Lucy's panting.

36th logo: It depends on the logo.

  • Normal: Minimal. This logo has scared a few children though, but most people should be fine watching it.
  • Double Your Pleasure: Low, due to both of the 2 Erickas and the same reason above.
  • Bi-Lingual Ericka: Low. Enrrique blowing his trumpet might catch you off-guard.
  • Backwards Masking Ericka: Low to medium, due to Ericka staring suddenly at the beginning, still with 2 eyes. It's sometimes funny because it's in reverse.
  • Ericka Blooper #1: Low to medium (bordering on high) for those seeing it the first time. Ericka suddenly coming up and saying something different can be a little surprising, although it's intended to be funny.
  • Ericka Blooper #2: Low to medium. Ericka saying almost the original line but ending it with the word "line" in a confused ending can also be a little surprising, but, like the first blooper, it's intended to be funny.

37th logo: None to high, due to Sonic spinning.

38th logo: None to high, Roy eating a sandwich may get to some, but this logo is very cool.
