''' | '''Legacy:''' While the design is kid-friendly, the very creepy soundtrack doesn't at all fit with the logo, let alone a children's video, hence the nickname. | ||

''' | '''Legacy:''' 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]] and [[Spiffy Pictures]] logos, this logo has gained notoriety for the many low-quality parodies and remixes of it found on the Internet. | ||

''' | '''Legacy:''' Of all the Sony Wonder logos, this is probably the most forgettable of them all, not just because of how it supposedly appeared on only one film, but also just because of how rushed it feels. | ||
