1st Logo (September 27-October 30, 1993)
Logo: Just the words "Times New Roman" and "Times New Roman" sliding from the left and right respectively on a black background.

Technique: Simple 2D computer animation.

Music/Sounds: The ending theme of the movie. On Mary Kate & Ashley Olsen: Our First Video, a whooshing sound accompanies it

Availability: Only seen on Double, Double, Toil and Trouble & Mary Kate & Ashley Olsen: Our First Video.

2nd Logo (November 19, 1994-May 7, 2004)
Logo: Against a nighttime sky background, we see a shiny round blue object turn to the left. Two crescent shapes appear from the right as several light streaks fly across it from the lower left, forming a "D" with a crescent. It flashes and moves slightly upward, and the words "Times New Roman" or "Times New Roman", all arranged vertically, appear below.

Variant: On TV shows, the logo either begins with a sped-up version of the long version, or starts with the crescent forming.

Technique: CGI animation.

Music/Sounds: A dramatic string tune ending in a 2-note fanfare.

Music/Sound Variants:
 * Three variants of the main jingle exist. One is the full version (seen mostly on movies from the company), another is a slightly shorter version (seen at the end of some Mary-Kate and Ashley TV shows), and a warp-speed version that plays the first 6 string notes before cutting to the last note of the theme (seen on some episodes of So Little Time).
 * On most TV shows with this logo, the end theme was used.
 * Original ABC airings of Two of a Kind use a generic network theme.

Availability: Appears on many films and TV series from Mary-Kate and Ashley, such as Switching Goals and So Little Time.
