Background

This was the production company of Robert Greenblatt and David Janollari, mainly housed at Fox Television Studios.

(September 22, 1998-May 15, 2006)

Nickname: "Wrath of the Gods"

Logo: Two blue bars open up to show a set of letters sliding in from opposite sides of the screen, over a sky background with blue clouds. They zoom out to reveal that they read:

THE
GREENBLATT
JANOLLARI
STUDIO

The logo zooms out to a comfortable distance. Towards the end, the sun shines brightly through the clouds.

Variants:

  • A widescreen version exists. Before 2003, the logo was cropped.
  • On seasons 3-4 of The Hughleys and the short-lived show Oh, Grow Up!, the logo is stretched; the former had the logo cut to either the Fox Television Studios logo or the 20th Television logo when the sun shines thorugh the clouds.
  • A short version of the logo starts out when the logo zooms out.
  • In 2003, the words are dark blue and when the sun shines, the background is yellower. (The long version of this variant has not been seen yet.)

FX/SFX: The sliding letters and the zoom-out of the logo.

Music/Sounds: A booming hammer-strike sound, followed by "shining" sounds, and ending with two guitar plucks.

Music/Sounds Variants:

  • On Six Feet Under, American Family and Platinum, the end theme finishes over it.
  • On seasons 2-5 of One on One, seasons 2-3 of Eve, and early episodes of Cuts, the guitar plucks are omitted.
  • On later episodes of Cuts, the music is shortened.
  • On season 1 of Eve, only the guitar plucks are heard.

Availability: The long version is seen on The Hughleys and season 1 of One on One. It also appeared at the end of the pilot for the unproduced show Heat Vision and Jack. The short version can be seen on seasons 2-5 of One on One, Eve, Six Feet Under, Platinum, American Family and the short-lived series, Cuts.
