1. The Sony Pictures Television logo isn't bad - it just got that bad reputation due to the rampant plastering. |

2. Additionally, the 2nd 20th Century Fox Television Distribution logo is actually great. The community trashes it all the time due to it's budget and coloring. Based on the variants (especially the recently fully unearthed extended version), I think they actually spent the budget well! Additionally it's also unique for the fact that they actually recreated the 2009 logo instead of sticking to what the other TV divisions use these days. |

3. "Logo kids" is a moronic term shouldn't exist. Let people be who they are. We all were kids in the past too so that term also contradicts things anyway. |
|||
4. Going back to 20th Century Fox for a moment.. for the love of god, can people just remake something else? It's tiring to see the 1994 logo getting remaked over and over again, with rarely any variety getting mixed in! I've seen people sort of notice this and started to move on to remaking the 2021/2023 WB logos, which is alright, but I fear the same fate will happen to that logo too. |

I'll start first.
Any others you guys have? |

As for individual logos, beginning with what I think are overrated:
Now for the rest:
I am intrigued by the premise of this thread, and also have more unpopular opinions to express, so I'll return for more. |

I think the Toppic Video logo (y'know, the screaming one) is more funny than scary to me. |

I'm not particularly in the loop with what is and isn't popular within the logo community right now. I've never been crazy involved in the social aspects of the scene, and I still wouldn't consider myself active in those respects. I will say that I think the logo community at-large is much more interested in seeing the newest logo reveals from all the major studios and production firms, instead of cherishing older logos. I'm not making this point as a slight towards the massive archive engines that are channels like Broken Saw, but a lot of interesting finds kind of get themselves buried under the eighteenth capture of a specific logo combination from some TV show no one will remember 3 years from now. I'm not saying that archiving these things are not important, I'm simply trying to say that there are plenty of interesting things to find that aren't brand new. Another "unpopular" opinion (I guess) is that AVID as a database skews towards more modern production labels and companies. I think this is relatively par for the course, since it is much easier to find modern logos (they're just about everywhere) as opposed to older fare, but it definitely seems like the further you go back, the patchier AVID's coverage gets. |

Gonna put some more unpopular opinions here.

Unpopular opinion, CBSTVD, SPT and the likes of "overplastering" are underrated and bashed way too much. A lot of them are really good logos designed fluently and they don't deserve the hate they got back in the day and to some extent, now. |

All I could think of is that they're toxic. |

The UNC-TV 1971 logo is a chill logo. I love it's music and scanimation. |

I have another unpopular opinion that I'm surprised I didn't address previously The 1994 WBTV Theme sounds nothing like Merrily We Roll Along to me. Warner Bros. Family Entertainment has Merrily in the exact same pitch as the WBTV logo and it clearly sounds more like it. |

Here are mines: 1. I actually like the Arman Julian Productions logo, I don’t find it scary. 2. I don’t mind the first Camp Video logo, I find it pretty cool. |

Apologies for a VERY long hibernation, but here are my logo opinions: 1: I (like so many of you) favour the old Fuzzy Door Productions logo more than the new one. I might get one of my artist friends to edit the current one… 2: Wonk Inc.’s logo might be scary, so I’m keeping it under a radar for now. 3: Logos like Babyhemyth, Helltrap Nightmare, Heel & Toe and Millar Gough Ink fall under “funny” more than “scary” (though the last one sometimes does…). 4: Jenny Kissed Me and Sutton Street Productions make me REALLy uncomfortable…5: The scientist guy we hear in Mastermind Laboratories might not be saying “it works!” I rewatched the logo a bunch of times before writing this down, and although muffled by the additional sounds, he could also be saying “Edward!” (who I presume is his colleague or something), or “it was!” (what was?) What do YOU think guys? 6: I still can’t for the life of me comprehend what sings and coughs in the Acme Productions logo. I can tell it’s something tiny, like a flea or something. 7: I don’t think the island on the Zihuatanejo Productions logo looks anything like the real Zihuatanejo. And 8: Anyone understand what that woman on the 2 Out Rally logo is saying? “Puppies”? |

I'll say a few takes of mine. 1. The Sony Pictures Television logo isn't bad - it just got that bad reputation due to the rampant plastering. 2. Additionally, the 2nd 20th Century Fox Television Distribution logo is actually great. The community trashes it all the time due to it's budget and coloring.
