PRODUCTIONS
A light green crooked hand is seen in front of the headstone rising from the grave.
Technique: 2D digital animation.
Audio: A "Hee, hee, hee, hee, hee!" shriek as the hand rises.
Audio Variant: On some episodes of Wonderfalls, the shriek starts at the point when the logo starts followed by a scary music beginning.
Availability: Seen on some episodes of Wonderfalls, Pushing Daisies and the animated TV movie The Amazing Screw-On Head.
2nd Logo (October 26, 2012-)
Visuals: An illustration of a zombie's arm sticking out of the ground with a fork in his hand (that has an eyeball on it) is seen on a white background. To the left of the arm is the text "LIVING DEAD GUY".
Variants:
- There is a variant where the zombie's arm has a fountain pen, replacing a fork.
- On Mockingbird Lane, the logo is on a Toshiba flat-screen TV and the fork is replaced with a crow.
- An animated version exists on later episodes of Hannibal: it's the same text except they're all centered in one word, and the zombie's arm rises up.
- On American Gods, the zombie's arm has a coin when he rises up.
- On Star Trek: Discovery, the arm does the Vulcan salute.
Technique: A still, digital graphic. 2D digital animation for the the animated version.
Audio: None or the closing theme. On American Gods, the closing theme plays along with the ground cracking (as the arm rises up) and the crow cawing.
Audio Variant: On the pilot episode of Mockingbird Lane, an organ tune.
Availability: Seen on Hannibal, American Gods, Star Trek: Discovery and the pilot episode of Mockingbird Lane.
