Logo: On a white background, a picture of an stylized dog watching a TV set is seen, with rays coming out of the TV screen as 5 points and the dog having visible pupils. Below the picture, the text "KinoJagger" in a large print size is seen with sharp edges on the "K", "J", and "r", as well as "productions" in a much smaller size. The entire logo is in various shades of yellow.

Technique: None.

Availability: Seen on the early episodes of Lisa Williams: Life Among the Dead, and the failed pilot Second Verdict.

(2006-2012)


Logo: We see a gold background with a couple of Chinese characters that fade out after a second. Then the camera zooms back, revealing that it's a gold dog watching a television against a background with swirly gold lines. "YANI-BRUNE" zooms out from the bottom of the screen, along with "ENTERTAINMENT" (the text being in a similar style as the Merv Griffin 2006 logo that follows it). Rays emerge from the screen.

Technique: All of the CGI.

Music/Sounds: A reverberated synth sound, followed by a buzz sound.

Availability: Seen on Merv Griffin's Crosswords and later episodes of Lisa Williams: Life Among the Dead.
