'''Logo:''' At the start of the show, we start on a black background with a dark blue light. Then, a large WB shield in the design of the 18th logo, accompanied with the words "WARNER BROS. ANIMATION" and "Presents", in the same fonts as the 18th logo, zoom in (with the shield once again zooming in closer than the letters and overshooting its mark, crashing into the screen, then quickly pulling back-again, a la ''Lumberjack Rabbit''). Around the same time the shield appears, a colorful, painted orange/yellow bullseye "zooms" behind it. Then a quick second later, the shield zooms out, and the camera follows the shield, segueing into the opening intro of the show.

'''Logo:''' The logo is very similar to the 1953 MGM Cartoons logo, but instead of using Tanner the lion with baby blue ribboning, it was replaced by a Warner Bros. shield from the 18th logo, and instead of "A Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer", it's "A Warner Bros.". The word "CARTOON" is still used, and it still takes place in a blue background.

'''Variant:''' On ''Tom and Jerry: The Lost Dragon'', the logo is sepia-tinted and placed in a border surrounded by dragons.

'''Logo:''' The WB shield (from the 18th, 20th, 21st and 22nd logos) fades in with a dim shine over the shield and zooms in as the black background turns into a dark blood red background of ''Looney Tunes'' bullseye rings. After the WB shield is there, the script "'''''Animation'''''" is written in cursive writing.
