<u>Editor's Note:</u> A rather simple effort using primitive early 90s graphics, but it is notable for appearing on Nickelodeon tapes prior to Viacom's purchase of Paramount.

*An early version of this logo exists on Nickelodeon tapes such as ''Rocko's Modern Christmas'', ''Aaahh!!! Real Monsters: Monsters Night Out'', and ''Ren & Stimpy: Nothing But Shorts''. The light effect barely moves and is much brighter, and the music composure is also different. This also had a shorter version on ''A Rugrats Passover''. On ''Big Bird Sings'', there are no fades at the beginning or end of the logo.

*The color of the CGI yellow sun in "WONDER" can vary. On nearly all Sony Wonder releases, the CGI sun is in gold-yellow. On many ''Sesame Street'' VHS releases from late 1996-early 1998 such as ''Sing Yourself Sillier At the Movies'' and ''Kids' Guide to Life: Telling the Truth'', the CGI sun is in orange-yellow orange. On early 1996 ''Sesame Street'' VHS releases such as ''Elmocize'' and ''Rock & Roll'', the logo appears brighter, making the CGI sun appear in a white-tinted color.

<u>Editor's Note:</u> This logo is a favorite of many due to its omnipresence on releases of ''Sesame Street'' and ''Arthur'', as well as many others, and on the (in)famous web series ''Greeny Phatom'' (for some reason). It also utilizes some neat CGI effects that, while not mind-blowingly fantastic, work very well and held up quite well for the logo's lifespan.
