Logo: On a black background, we see a "b" with a watery texture. Then, a "t" appears, as the "b" switches its texture as the "t" gets the watery texture. Once again, the textures switch as an "s" appears. The background color then changes to purple as a rectangle appears behind the letters (forming the new TBS logo). Then the background changes to a purple and blue-ish as the letters in tbs turn blue with green stripes. "PRODUCTIONS" then wipes in. The background wiggles.
