'''Logo:''' Over a shaded {{color|darkorange|orange}} background, we see lots of {{color|gold|yellow}} circles zooming in toward the camera. Each circle has a different close-up of the 2000 Comedy Central logo (much like the original, but looking more abstract, with different buildings and a different font) and the text "'''''THIS HAS BEEN A PRESENTATION OF'''''" scrolling to the right. When the circles move away, we are treated with the end product: the updated Comedy Central logo in the center with "'''''THIS HAS BEEN A PRESENTATION OF'''''" above in black, and "'''comedycentral.com'''" below in white, and circles moving behind the logo. | '''Logo:''' Over a shaded {{color|darkorange|orange}} background, we see lots of {{color|gold|yellow}} circles zooming in toward the camera.

Most notably, the transmitter was removed from the middle building, which was said to "communicate the 1950s broadcast era" by network managememt. | ||
