Nicknames: "Shining Lion", "Lion Constellation"

Logo: On a black background, we see the lion from the film logo. Below it is "LIONS GATE". Under it is "TELEVISION", in what appears to be stretched-out Myriad. The lion flashes and shines.

Variant: On Shutter Speed, a byline for Mandalay Action & Sports Entertainment appears below. The logo is also smaller.

FX/SFX: The flashing of the constellation.

Music/Sounds: Either a synth theme with crashing cymbals to hit the last note, or the first part of the Lions Gate Home Entertainment theme; otherwise, the end theme of the show.

Availability: Fairly common. Seen on The Dead Zone on Cloo and the first season of Weeds.

Editor's Note: None.

Music/Sounds: Just the end title-theme from any show or the generic network theme.
