Jim Owens Entertainment, Inc.

Background[]

Jim Owens Entertainment, Inc. is the vanity plate of the late Jim Owens.

Logo[]

(April 1, 1986-1990s): On a black background, there is the text "JIM OWENS ENTERTAINMENT INC. All Rights Reserved". Above the text is a clip of an obese woman wearing a viking helmet and viking garb, and holding two cymbals. She yells "HoahhoahAAAAAAAOOOOOOH!" and then crashes the cymbals.

Variants[]

A variant with different text appeared on a syndicated episode of Crook & Chase. Above the clip are the words "Syndicated by Genter Media", the lower-left hand side reads "Distributed by", with the 1983 Nashville Network print logo on a white background, and the lower-right hand side reads "A Division of Jim Owens Entertainment, Inc. All Rights Reserved".
Another variant exists where we see bold serif text that reads "Distributed by Jim Owens Entertainment, Inc.".
On From the Vault: Country Standard Time, a still image of the opera lady is inside a rectangular box with the words "A Division of Jim Owens Entertainment All Rights Reserved" next to it.
- Another version of said variant has a still image of the last shot and in its normal size.

Music/Sounds[]

The lady "singing", for lack of a better term, and the cymbals. The still variant has the closing theme of the show.

Scare Factor[]

It can range from low to high (Bordering on nightmare). The fat lady's singing and crashing is bound to scare more than a few people, especially if they are unexpected. Otherwise, you'll just be confused at this logo, or might even find it funny.
