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 through the clouds.
A short version of the logo starts when the sun shines through the clouds.
Starting 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 shows like The Hughleys, The Chronicle, 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, Elvis, and the short-lived series Cuts.

Editor's Note: None.
