Logo: On a black background, we see a yellow crudely-drawn cup sitting on a saucer, with four orange lines emanating from the top. Next to it we see the words "CUPPA COFFEE" in orange, with "ANIMATION" below in a small yellow oval.

Variant: On the 1999 TV special Snowden's Christmas, the cup and saucer are now in a yellow outline, and cast a shadow. "CUPPA COFFEE" is in white and stacked below the cup, and "ANIMATION" is black in a yellow oval.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: The ending theme of the show.

Availability: Rare. Seen on the short-lived HBO series Crashbox. The logo is retained on the current HBO Family airings of the show, in addition to streaming services such as Crave in Canada. Also seen on Snowden's Christmas.

Editor’s Note: None.
