19 Entertainment is the production company behind the Idol franchise, as well as So You Think You Can Dance, founded in 1985 by Simon Fuller. 19 Entertainment (with the rights to the shows mentioned above) was sold to CKX, Inc. in 2005 (later renamed to CORE Media Group in 2012, then Industrial Media in 2018) for $210 million. Five years later, the company moved its headquarters from London to Los Angeles; simultaneously, Fuller established a separate company called XIX Entertainment. In March 2022, Sony Pictures Television purchased Industrial Media for $350 million, with 19 Entertainment becoming a subsidiary of its nonfiction division.

A red circle appears around the perimeter of where the dot was and forms the "9" from the previous logo. The colors invert once more as the "9" finishes drawing.
