'''Nickname''': "Spinning Tiles"


'''Logo''': On a hot magenta/Mexican pink gradient shade background, we have two light orange diamond-like shapes that are rotating around. The diamond on the left rotates clockwise, while the other diamond next to it rotates counter-clockwise. Behind the two orange rotating diamonds is a larger light pink rotating diamond that's rotating clockwise. In front of the diamonds, we see the Game Show Network tiles logo spinning with the green ball jumping down, sliding off the screen and flies off to the right. The ball would fly in from the left bringing in the "ORIGINALS" text and bounce on the name to make its way back on the logo.

'''Logo''': On a light blue background, we see the GSN logo from the time. Then, the logo opens up to reveal a blue colored factory, with gears, and a bunch of green blocks on a conveyor belt. A bunch of presses with a letter carved in each of them land on each of the green blocks to form the letters in "ORIGINAL". We cut back to the GSN logo. The logo opens up, and "ORIGINAL" jumps out of the logo, flips, and lands on the logo.
