'''Availability:''' The silver/red/silver, blue/dark blue, green/green/dark green and red/dark red variants are uncommon. The yellow, purple, and blue/purple ones are rare. First seen on season 2 episodes of ''Comedy Central Presents'' and last seen on the ''Dr. Katz, Professional Therapist'' episode "Lerapy". The blue variant might have been seen on ''South Park'' episodes from this era, but the only evidence this logo appeared on the show is the blue-variant appearing on the episode "Prehistoric Ice Man" on the second season DVD (the rest of the episodes end with the previous logo). Nearly all of the colors can be found on DVDs of ''Dr. Katz, Professional Therapist'' episodes from the era. It also appeared on Craig Kilborn/early Jon Stewart-era ''The Daily Show'' episodes and ''Comedy Central Presents'' episodes from the era. The blue version can also be seen on the DVD of ''Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me'', at the end of ''Comedy Central's Canned Ham: The Dr. Evil Story'' (a fake documentary tying in with the film) | '''Availability:''' The silver/red/silver, blue/dark blue, green/green/dark green and red/dark red variants are uncommon.
