Variant:

'''Technique:''' 2D hand-drawn animation.
A long version exists, where the man's emergence is darker and the word "PARIAH" isn't already formed. After the man runs up at the screen, a fire arrow is launched and forms the word "PARIAH" above as we go to a black background.
A still version exists.


'''Audio:''' A dramatic orchestrated fanfare with the sound of bells and a wordless chorus. On TV shows, mob members are heard chanting "The evil one!" and "Get him!".


'''Audio Variants:'''
FX/SFX: 2D hand-drawn animation.
*During the early use of this logo, it had a dramatic medieval theme with the sound of the mob, with some additional banter between both sentences.
*On ''Zombieland'' and ''Premium Rush'', a synth drone is heard with dogs barking in the background, followed by a lone church bell when the text is formed.
*Sometimes, the closing theme of the show or the network's generic theme plays over the logo.


'''Availability:'''
Music/Sounds: A dramatic orchestral tune combined with a man yelling "The evil one!", the sounds of the angry mob, then another man yelling "GET HIM!". This variant may or may not be sped up. The long version uses a synth drone, then the sounds of the yelling crowd and some gasps and barks, and when the arrow forms the text a bell is heard. For the still version, it's the end theme of the show.
*The short version was seen on ''Family Affair'' (2002), ''Hack'', the failed pilot of ''The Angriest Man in Suburbia'', ''My Boys'', ''The Showbiz Show'', ''Emily's Reason Why Not'', and at the start of the film ''Population 436'', despite the long version being introduced two years before it's release.
*The long version is seen on the films ''Zombieland'', ''Primeval'', ''Nerdland'', ''Premium Rush'', and the unsold pilot for ''D.O.T.S.''
*The still version was seen on the short-lived HBO series ''Tell Me You Love Me''.


===References===
Availability: The short version was seen on the short-lived 2002 revival of Family Affair, Hack, and My Boys. The long version is seen on Zombieland and Premium Rush. The still version was seen on the short-lived HBO series Tell Me You Love Me.
