Logo: On a white background, we see a black object with a shadow behind it. It has 4 dots in it, colored orange, red, pink and purple. They inflate like balloons into the the word "GURU", and then deflate and fit into the object.

Variants:
 * On the first season of Justin Time, the logo is still on a black background, with the text colored black and the border white.
 * On the second season of Justin Time, the logo, like before, is still on a black background and has a white border, but the text is in the original colors and there is a glow around the logo.
 * An in-credit version exists, sometimes with the color scheme from the first variant. Another version has white text and a red border.

FX/SFX: Very choppy animation.

Music/Sounds: TBA. Sometimes, the ending theme of the show or movie plays over the logo.

Availability: Common. Seen on Paw Patrol and Justin Time beginning with their third seasons, Ever After High beginning with the episode "Thronecoming", Abby Hatcher, Pikwik Pack and True and the Rainbow Kingdom. The standard in-credit version appears on Abby Hatcher, some episodes of Ever After High, seasons 2 to 6 of Paw Patrol, The Breadwinner and Dinopaws. The black and white in-credit version appears on Mudpit, while the red and white one is seen on Paw Patrol beginning with season 7.
