Qubo IDs

Background
Qubo was launched in 2006 as a multi platform children's entertainment joint venture between NBCUniversal, Ion Media Networks, Classic Media, Corus Entertainment and Scholastic. NBCUniversal dropped out from the partnership in March 2012 and Ion acquired NBCUniversal's interest in the venture. A year later, Ion wholly acquired all of Qubo from Classic Media (now known as DreamWorks Classics) Corus, and Scholastic.

On February 28, 2021, Qubo went off the air permanently after Ion was acquired by the E. W. Scripps Company, resulting in Qubo, Ion Plus, and Ion Shop to cease operations.

1st ID (September 9, 2006-February 28, 2021)
ID: These IDs contain a cartoonish 3D style. The IDs contain Qubo's "Qube" logo as the main icon, with the logo appearing at the end of each ID. See Variants for the list of IDs.


 * Note: The defunct NBC and Telemundo block, Qubo on NBC, has the words "on NBC" with NBC's peacock logo slide in on the end of a variant. It should not be treated as a separate ID or a separate logo.

Variants: This ID had a large amount of variants, listed below:
 * Skateboard: On a skate-park setting, we see 2 cubes, one green and one white. The green cube then turns into a green helmet on top of the white cube's head. The cube then dives down with a skateboard, skates under a loop, and then jumps off a ramp. The cube then turns into the Qubo logo.
 * Boombox: On a city setting, we see a person made out of cubes wearing a cap, glasses, a chain, and a Qubo shirt. The person, whilst holding a boom-box,  break-dances in front of 7 small cubes. The Qubo logo from the shirt is seen at the end.
 * Arts & Crafts: On an orange background, we see a pair of white arms cut a red paper with scissors. The paper is cut into 7 red cubes. Another pair of arms is gluing blue cubes in a string, which they then show off. The last pair of arms crumbles multiple colored-papers into the Qubo logo, which the arms then stretches and prints in a table.
 * Machinery: On a factory setting, we see a truck, a soccer ball and a turkey in a rail, which leads to what seems to be a transformer. A green ray is then blasted to the turkey, which is sent inside the transformer. On a screen printed in the machine, a model of the turkey is seen. The turkey model is then wiped and replaced with the Qubo logo. The cube is then punted off a tube. The cube rolls, and then jumps into a sky-blue background, which is when the Qubo logo is seen.
 * Playground: On a typical playground setting, we see two Qubo logos jumping over two ropes. As the camera starts to pan around, we see more equipment in the background, like a swing set and something that appears to be monkey bars. The two Qubo logos previously skipping rope connect with each other with an orange spring, and bounce around for a bit. The spring turns into a basketball, and the two Qubo logos dribble the ball for a bit. The Qubo logo in the right (in red) transforms into the standard Qubo logo on a sky blue background.
 * Vacuum: TBA.
 * Tornado: In a messy bedroom with two Qubo logos, another Qubo logo opens a door and talks gibberish; possibly telling the two logos to clean their room. The door closes, and the two logos on the bed start to bounce around (one even rides a skateboard for a few seconds) and transform into a tornado. Ironically, the tornado cleans the room instead of making it worse. After a while, the tornado becomes one Qubo logo, which sits on the bed. We then zoom towards the logo, finishing in the same fasion as the other ones, but the background is the same color as the bed.
 * Giant: TBA.
 * Race: On a street/highway/road setting with a giant sun, we see a starting line banner with the text "QUBO 500" and two checkered flags (possibly a parody of the Indianapolis 500) on it. Suddenly, four race cars in different colors zoom through the starting line. We then cut to another part of the road with a crossing sign containing two Qubo logos on it. (if you look closely to the right, you can still see the starting line) The cars then zoom past again, and we cut to a crosswalk with three Qubo logos crossing the road. (one is bigger than the others) As the camera zooms out and the racecars approach the crosswalk, a fourth Qubo logo, which is the smallest of all of them, runs across the sidewalk as the racecars come to a stop. We then zoom into the smallest Qubo logo and the text appears as usual on a green background.

FX/SFX: CGI animation.

Music/Sounds: Depends on the variant. At the end of every variant, a "pop" noise is heard.

Availability: Extinct, though it was used for 14 years. All of these IDs are no longer on TV due to the channel closing down in February 28, 2021.

Legacy: This is a well-known logo for many people that have watched Qubo, and is a favorite for many.

2nd ID (2012-February 28, 2021)
TBA.
