'''Editor's Note:''' This logo is a favorite of many due to its omnipresence on releases of ''Sesame Street'' and ''Arthur'', as well as many others. 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. Similarly to the 1998 [[Klasky-Csupo]] logo, this logo has gained notoriety for the many low-quality parodies and remixes of it found on the Internet, including the infamous web series ''Greeny Phatom.'' | '''Editor's Note:''' This logo is a favorite of many due to its omnipresence on releases of ''Sesame Street'' and ''Arthur'', as well as many others.
