'''NOTE''': The logo capture shown here may not be complete, as the original video cuts in to this logo.
 
'''Logo:''' We see a white flash that clears to reveal a {{color|dodgerblue|blue}}/{{color|hotpink|pink}} swirl. The swirl zooms out to reveal the Game Show print logo from the time.

'''Logo:''' On a {{color|deepskyblue|light blue}} background, we see the GSN logo from the time. Then, the logo opens up to reveal a {{color|deepskyblue|blue}} factory with gears and a bunch of {{color|limegreen|green}} blocks on a conveyor belt. A bunch of presses with a letter cut out on each of them land on the {{color|limegreen|green}} blocks to form the letters of "'''ORIGINAL'''". We cut back to the GSN logo. The logo opens up, and "'''ORIGINAL'''" jumps out of the logo, flips, and lands on the logo.
 
'''Trivia:''' Along with the other IDs, this was done at V12.
 
'''Variant:''' There is a variant where the word "'''ORIGINAL'''" doesn't flip once it jumps out of the logo.
 
'''Technique:''' CGI.
 
'''Music/Sounds:''' Factory noises are heard throughout. When "ORIGINAL" jumps out, we hear a whoosh, creaking, and a one-note tune. A female announcer says "GSN" with another female announcer saying "nya-la".
 
'''Music/Sounds Variant:''' Sometimes, the one-note tune isn't heard and there is no female announcer.
 
'''Availability:''' Extinct. This was last seen before original programming such as ''Whammy! The All New Press Your Luck'', ''Russian Roulette'', ''Extreme Dodgeball'', and ''Video Game Invasion: The History of a Global Obsession''.
