<u>Background:</u> Nickelodeon Studios was a television studio in Universal Studios Florida that also served as an attraction in the park, allowing kids to attend tapings of Nick's game shows. The first program taped there, ''Super Sloppy Double Dare'', was taped in Spring 1989, with the attraction fully opening on June 7th, 1990. The attraction, while initially very popular, began to decline in the 2000s as Nick began slowly switching their live-action output to closed-set sitcoms and moving filming to Nickelodeon on Sunset in Hollywood. The final show taped there, ''Nickelodeon Splat!'', finished taping on August 17th, 2004, with the attraction permanently shutting down on April 30th, 2005.

*In the first variant, we see the side view of the studio, with the slime geyser, like the 2nd logo, but then, as we fade into the front, the camera slowly zooms out until it's showing the globe. This is one of two variants that was shot on a sunny day. This can be found on ''Clarissa Explains It All'', ''Get The Picture'', ''Eureeka's Castle'', ''Hi Honey, I'm Home!'' and ''Welcome Freshman''.
