'''Logo:''' On a stylized {{Font color|saddlebrown|brown}} or black background, a {{Font color|gold|gold}} plate with the word "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''HALLMARK'''}}" on it backwards fills the screen. As the camera backs away, it's revealed to be a stamp that stamps a {{Font color|silver|silver}} rectangle as the image turns around. The rectangle continues to rotate until it stops in the center, revealing the following text on it (with lines above and below it):
<center>{{Font|Times New Roman|'''HALLMARK'''</br>ENTERTAINMENT}}</center>
