Logo: On an apricot colored background with light green, orange and gold yellow stripes with varying width, a drawing of a crushed can with the lid open is seen, along with a spoon in front of it. The can reads "NOODLE SOUP" on it, and "PRODUCTIONS INC." is below the spoon. Suddenly, the dot of "INC" disappears, and a blue circle appears on the bottom left corner of the screen, with a red-headed kid named Timmy with an overbite inside. After Timmy says his line, the circle shrinks back into the dot of "INC."

FX/SFX: The animation of Timmy.

Music/Sounds: A slide whistle sound and Timmy saying "That's gooooood soup!".

Music/Sounds Variant: On the pilot for The Venture Bros., "The Terrible Secret of Turtle Bay", Timmy has a different, lower voice.
