* In 1993-1997 before ''L-club'', the VID mask would morph into the face of Leonid Yarmolnik (the host of the show) and open its eyes, jiggling its eyebrows in the process. After it does this, it kind of looks like it is staring at you, looking tired. | * In 1993-1997 before ''L-club'', the VID mask would morph into the face of Leonid Yarmolnik (the host of the show) and open its eyes, jiggling its eyebrows in the process.

* At the end of a 1994 ''L-club'' episode on April Fools Day (this was reportedly done as a joke), when the text appears, the face on the VID mask morphs into a different face with creepy wide eyes and his tongue sticking out (it kind of looks the standard ''L-Club'' variant but except for the tongue sticking out), as if to mock or taunt at the viewer. This variant sometimes appeared at the end of other ''L-club'' episodes as well, including the one from 18 June on the same year. Also, the variant stays there for 12 seconds before finally cutting to black. | * At the end of a 1994 ''L-club'' episode on April Fools Day (this was reportedly done as a joke), when the text appears, the face on the VID mask morphs into a different face with creepy wide eyes and his tongue sticking out (it kind of looks the standard ''L-Club'' variant but except for the tongue sticking out), as if to mock or taunt at the viewer.

* A spoof of the logo was seen on ''Оба-на!'' beginning with a man from the show superimposed over the ball-and-stick segment (either flashing or reduced animation), panicking and freaking out over it, and then sliding down as the ball falls off the line. It then proceeds normally, until a few seconds after the mask is seen, it then fades into a gray-scale version of the face of Russian writer/comedian Igor Ugolnikov, whom says in an electronically-distorted voice in Russian, "VID, VID. Nothing is viewed from your view!" ("ВИД, ВИД. ничего не видно по вашему виду!") and then smiles as we hear the opening theme. At the end of the show, Ugolnikov says, "VID, VID. ''Oba-na'' is our dominant companion." (ВИД, ВИД. Оба на вам сейчас покажу по вашему виду). and smiles again (with a chuckle). | * A spoof of the logo was seen on ''Оба-на!'' beginning with a man from the show superimposed over the ball-and-stick segment (either flashing or reduced animation), panicking and freaking out over it, and then sliding down as the ball falls off the line.

* Before ''Otdyhay!'' in 1992-1994, the standard variant plays out as normal, but the "{{Font|Times|{{Font color|#CC7E31|'''ВИD'''}}}}" wordmark fades in with the mask (which is in the high-contrast monochrome tone used for the 8th logo, but colored gold) and the mask says in a high-pitched voice "Hey! Relax, though!" ("Хех! Отдыхай однако!"). before smiling. Everything, except for ball-and-stick segment, is animated with computer graphics. | * Before ''Otdyhay!'' in 1992-1994, the standard variant plays out as normal, but the "{{Font|Times|{{Font color|#CC7E31|'''ВИD'''}}}}" wordmark fades in with the mask (which is in the high-contrast monochrome tone used for the 8th logo, but colored gold) and the mask says in a high-pitched voice "Hey!

* Not only is this logo perhaps the most infamous Russian logo, but it has been deemed one of the scariest logos ever made by the logo community due to multiple aspects such as the mask of Guo Xiang, which has been deemed creepy and unfriendly-looking by many, the transition featuring the rings and black circle, and the dramatic 5-note fanfare. Variants such as the April Fools variant have also been viewed as scary, though they are also seen as slightly tamer than the original logo. In spite of its infamous reputation, this logo has developed a cult following, especially in Russia, and has been the subject of various memes and even a screamer known as "VID | * Not only is this logo perhaps the most infamous Russian logo, but it has been deemed one of the scariest logos ever made by the logo community due to multiple aspects such as the mask of Guo Xiang, which has been deemed creepy and unfriendly-looking by many, the transition featuring the rings and black circle, and the dramatic 5-note fanfare.
