'''Audio:''' A soft piano sounder followed by a five-note fanfare with horns and bells. This tune was composed by Marc Shaiman. Some films, such as some prints of ''Misery'', ''Year of the Comet'' and ''Honeymoon in Vegas'', have the end part of the theme a bit different. Although in some films, the soundtrack of the film is used. The Showtime documentary ''But Seriously...'' has the full logo with a shortened version of the theme, beginning on the last few piano notes before going into the five-note fanfare.
