'''Nicknames:''' "The Checkerboard"


'''Logo:''' We see the 1992-2004 Cartoon Network logo on a white screen, with an extra checkered row reading "'''STUDIOS'''". Copyright info is below. A few seconds later, Dexter bursts out of the logo in his robot, looking back and forth afterward.

'''Trivia:''' This logo is not for the Cartoon Network Studios that the rest of the page covers but rather merely a label for CN original content produced by [[Hanna-Barbera Cartoons]], Inc., but was scrapped a little over a year later and reverted back to Hanna-Barbera branding until the studio shuttered in 2001.

The "Dexter" variant appears on later season 1 episodes of ''Dexter's Laboratory'' (with ''The Justice Friends'' segment).

'''Availability:''' Ultra rare. The earliest logo first appeared on the ''Evil Con Carne'' pilot and the ''Codename: Kids Next Door'' pilot "No P in the OOL". The first variant with the byline was seen on pilots for ''My Freaky Family'' and ''IMP Inc.''. The second variant appeared on the failed ''Korgoth of Barbaria'' pilot on [[Adult Swim]].

'''Legacy:''' This logo was the first official CN Studios logo, utilized in 2000 when the studio opened the same year. The logo resembles the [[Williams Street Productions|Williams Street]] logo as well, which also may explain its reappearance on ''Korgoth of Barbaria'', although it hasn't appeared on any other [adult swim] programming produced by CN Studios, probably due to the obscurity of this rather odd and unrecognizable logo.

'''Logo:''' There are two variations for this logo:
Line 110: Line 110:
'''Availability:''' Common. The standard version was first seen on the premiere of ''Time Squad'' and appears on ''Transformers: Animated'' (Hub Network (now Discovery Family) airings cut this out, though), ''Whatever Happened to... Robot Jones?'', early episodes of ''The Life and Times of Juniper Lee'', ''Ben 10'', ''Evil Con Carne'', and ''A Johnny Bravo Christmas''. However, the standard version also appeared on the first airing and 2011 Blu-ray Disc of ''Firebreather'' (the future airings of said movie have the next logo below). Some of the variations during the Cartoon Cartoons-mid 2000's era were rare and hard to find because the shows that they were on are hardly reran nowadays, until the debut of HBO Max. The variants from the final two seasons (and the movie) of ''The Powerpuff Girls'', the last season of ''Johnny Bravo'', the final two seasons of ''Dexter's Laboratory'', ''Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends'', ''Camp Lazlo'', the first four seasons of ''Samurai Jack'', and ''Ben 10'' are seen on [[Boomerang IDs|Boomerang]] when they are reran. The still version appears on ''The Flintstones: On the Rocks'', episodes 5-9 of ''Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law'' and ''Star Wars: Clone Wars''. However it only remained on ''Ben 10: Ultimate Alien'', while other shows like ''Adventure Time'' and ''Generator Rex'' started using the next logo starting in their 2nd seasons. Amusingly, this logo is retained on ''Star Wars: Clone Wars'' on [[Disney+ Originals|Disney+]]. Don't expect this logo to be on ''Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi'', though.

'''Legacy:''' A clever idea for a logo. The animations in the logo gives the show preceding it some sort of identity. However, the version with the AOL Time Warner byline appears to look rushed and lazy.
'''Legacy:''' A favorite amongst fans of Cartoon Network series.

'''Nicknames:''' "The Three Squares", "The 3-Squared Diagonal Line", "The CN Diagonal Squared Line"
'''Nicknames:''' "The Three Squares"


'''Logo:''' Against a black background with a grid of barely visible lines, we see three squares drop down forming a diagonal line (the {{font color|deepskyblue|blue}} square dropping to the bottom, turning white and bounces once. The {{font color|magenta|pink}} square sliding in from the left and turning white. And the {{font color|gold|yellow-orange}} square zooming in and turning white). Then a fourth square opens showing a different clip of the show's characters (depending on each show). As the grid fades out, the words "CARTOON NETWORK" wipes in and "'''STUDIOS'''" slides in from the right and pushes the text causing it to shake briefly forming the words, "CARTOON NETWORK '''STUDIOS'''". Then the clip in the fourth square turns white.

'''Nicknames:''' "The CN Checkerboard V", "Inverted Checkerboard", "The Wonky Checkerboard"
'''Nicknames:''' "The CN Checkerboard V", "Inverted Checkerboard"


'''Logo:''' On a background from the preceding show, we see a new version of the Cartoon Network "Checkerboard" logo with inverted colors, more rectangular squares, and weirdly spaced letters in a black box with "'''STUDIOS'''" below it, all set in an excessively bold version of Eagle Black. The logo flips to reveal an animation (varies by show) that plays before flipping back to the logo. During this, the background flips to show more backgrounds from the preceding show before ending on a cream background.
