'''Logo:''' On a black background, a round {{color|orange}} glow of light appears, which morphs into a bright {{color|deepskyblue|light blue}} light. As stars and rays of light shoot by, we see the logo itself (two abstract 3-D "F" shapes, interlocking back-to-front into a medallion, with a metallic effect applied) appear in the blue light and zoom towards the screen with a bright light in front of it that later flashes. Underneath, the words "FILMWAYS PICTURES" (in the same font as the 1981 Filmways Television logo) fly back with a {{color|powderblue|whitish blue}} light trail effect. Both the logo and the words turn solid as the lights fade, with the logo turning {{color|blue}} and the words white. | '''Logo:''' On a black background, a round {{color|orange}} glow of light appears, which morphs into a bright {{color|deepskyblue|light blue}} light.
