Background

Fox Reality Channel was a channel owned by Fox Entertainment Group that aired reality TV shows. It was launched on May 24, 2005 and was replaced by Nat Geo Wild on March 29, 2010 (on most providers), April 19, 2010 (on Dish Network), and June 30, 2010 (on DirecTV).

Logo (May 24, 2005-June 30, 2010)

Visuals: On a vignetted white background, we see a pair of red lips, letting out a loud, menacing laugh. The camera zooms out as we see a large, crudely-done turquoise circle, with the Fox logo at the top of the giant text "REALITY", with "ORIGINAL" under "ITY". The mouth morphs into the "O" of "ORIGINAL", and the word zooms in as the logo is finished.

Variants:

At the end of Fox Reality shows, the logo begins as it has fully zoomed out.
On Solitary, the logo ends with a shut-off effect. The closing variant on the show also begins with said distortion effect.

Technique: Computer animation by Bob Swensen of Shine Studios.

Audio: An unsettling loud laugh (almost sounding similar to Goofy's holler), followed by a whoosh and a set of two clangs that repeats three times, which became Fox Reality's signature sound.

Audio Variant: The short version cuts out the laugh.

Availability: It appeared on shows produced by the now-extinct network, such as Paradise Hotel 2 and Solitary. It may be seen on episodes of Solitary on Amazon Prime.
