1st Logo (September 17, 2002-May 18, 2004)
Logo: On a white background, we see a picture of a mountain valley landscape with tall grass at sunrise. There is a red wooden chair under an oak tree. Under the picture we see the words:

SHADY ACRES ENTERTAINMENT

in a black Times New Roman font.

FX/SFX: None

Music/Sounds: The closing theme of the show.

Availability: Only seen on the first two seasons of 8 Simple Rules.

Editor's Note: None. The picture itself is soothing.

2nd Logo (September 24, 2004-)
Nickname: "The Snow Globe", "From Fall to Summer"

Logo: We zoom out around an autumn landscape with falling leaves, which turns to winter with snow falling. The whole action performs inside a snowglobe. with a wooden chair in front of it. Underneath the snowglobe, the words "SHADY ACRES" appear in a flash, in a blue Times New Roman font. The chair is in between the two words. Under the words "ACRES" is the small word "ENTERTAINMENT". The action in the globe continues to spring, with the creek running, and then it becomes summer.

Variants:
 * The television logo is just a still image.
 * On I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry and I Am, the word "SHADY" is removed, making the name "Acres Entertainment."

FX/SFX: The seasons changing inside the globe, the creek flows, the clouds, etc. All nice CGI effects.

Music/Sounds: A beautiful fanfare composed by John Debney. Sometimes, it's the opening/closing soundtrack of the show or movie.

Availability: Somewhat common. The television version debuted on the third season of 8 Simple Rules. The film version debuted on Accepted and can also be seen on Evan Almighty, I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry, and I Am.

Editor's Note: None.
