Klasky Csupo: Difference between revisions

* A version exists on the 1998 pilot of ''The Wild Thornberrys'' where the logo plays as usual, but with the 1998 Splaat logo audio instead. The pilot first aired on October 17, 1998, nine days after Splaat was introduced on ''The Wacky Adventures of Ronald McDonald''. It's possible that logo may have been set to be introduced in this pilot (produced in 1997 and slated to air either that year or early-to-mid 1998, only for it to be pushed back), but for unknown reasons was changed back to the 1991 logo, while keeping the new logo's audio intact. All other episodes with this logo use the normal music/sound variant.

'''Availability:''' Can be seen on ''Rugrats'' episodes from the era, and is also intact on home video releases and streaming platforms like Paramount+.

* However, some episodes of ''Rugrats'' had this logo even after 1999; "The Magic Baby/Dil We Meet Again" (aired May 4, 2001) is one example. This is most likely because the episode was intended to air with the first part of season 6 (the last batch of episodes to use this logo), but it got pushed back.

* This logo accidentally appeared on early airings of the ''SpongeBob SquarePants'' episode "Wet Painters/Krusty Krab Training Video". This was an editing mistake made by Nickelodeon when they first began using split-screen credits; normally, Nick makes custom credits for each of its series and its producers. K-C was the only company at the time, besides [[Frederator Studios|Frederator]], that produced several Nicktoons, and Nickelodeon created a generic one for these shows (which mentioned Klasky and Csupo as producers and included Splaat), but, on the said episode of ''SpongeBob SquarePants'', Nickelodeon accidentally used the K-C split-screen credits for that episode. This was fixed in 2006 and the [[United Plankton Pictures, Inc.]] logo has been seen on the episode ever since, but it's still one of the oddest editing mistakes ever made.

* It can be found on episodes such as those of later ''Rugrats'' seasons (starting with the episode "Runaway Reptar"), the short-lived ''Rugrats Pre-School Daze'', ''Rocket Power'', ''The Wild Thornberrys'' (earlier episodes had the "Graffiti" logo), ''As Told By Ginger'', and on ''All Grown Up!'', all of which aired on TeenNick's now-defunct block NickRewind; it is also shown in place of the previous logo on airings with split-screen credits.

* The filmed variant appeared on ''The Rugrats Movie'' and ''Rugrats in Paris: The Movie,'' but it doesn't appear on ''Rugrats Go Wild'' as it uses the 4th logo instead.

'''Legacy:''' This logo appears to be a metaphor for Klasky-Csupo's rather inspirational rise to fame from humble beginnings as an animation studio. This logo is well-known inside and outside the community thanks to its constant airplay on Nickelodeon, as well as the unique animation and SFX, and Splaat's unnerving design. It's not unusual to name this probably the most infamous "scary" logo of all time, thanks to Splaat's design as well as the "in-your-face" nature of the animation, earning its unofficial nickname "Super Scary Face". Additionally, there is a staggering amount of logo "remix" videos and other videos related to this logo (that are usually quite low in production quality). It was even to the point where the company created a web series titled ''RoboSplaat'' in response in 2016, which showcased Splaat as a character.

'''Visuals:''' There is a city silhouette, with a {{color|red}} rooster on one of the buildings and a few palm trees on the right. The sun rises, revealing the city (which is {{color|green}}) and the rooster. The rooster wakes up and opens its eyes (sourced from the previous logo, as evidenced by yellow edges around them). It crows loudly as its eyes get bigger and smaller and the blocks in the K-C logo float around, as described below:

* Depending on the aspect ratio used, the rooster will be either in the top-left corner of the screen or the center.
