2nd Logo (1996-2001)


Nicknames: "Walking Telly II", "Artist Services TV II", "Exploding Telly"

Logo: On a grey marble background, the same television from before comes walking from the right of the screen as usual, but this time makes a skiddering halt. Then, it starts to shiver somewhat before it's buttons briefly turn into slightly large striped ones one by one from bottom to top. The screen starts to turn static while it's antennae twitches before various objects come flying out of the screen. The following are:
 * A toaster with a piece of toast in the slot.
 * A UFO with a smiling alien whose antennae protrudes through the glass casing.
 * A mobile phone.
 * A mug of coffee with smell symbols on top and a calendar page baring the number 1.
 * A computer.
 * A sombrero with triangular shapes around the top.
 * A clapperboard.
 * Tragedy and comedy masks.
 * A glass of martini.
 * A thought bubble with a light bulb in it with points around it to represent an idea and to show the brightness of it.
 * A square picture of a cactus at night with an almost full moon.
 * A movie camera.

The latter then flies towards the screen where it cuts to the same background baring the text

FX/SFX: The television and objects.

Music/Sounds: Footsteps the television makes when walking, a screeching sound when the television stops, chime sounds for each button, a violent buzz when the screen goes static, an exploding sound when the objects fly out, a hurtling sound when the television flies down, and a thud sound when the television lands.
