'''Logo:''' On a blue background we see the white words "MGM KIDS" zooming out on a red shadow effect zooming out to the bottom of the screen. We see a cub replacing Leo, inside a golden filmstrip circle, which starts growling and roaring and pushes the name. "MGM KIDS" starts wiggling twice. The cub roars again and the last M in MGM moves lightly, the right side of the ribbon then pushes back the M to it's normal place.
