Fox Reality Originals

Background: Fox Reality Channel was a channel owned by the Fox Broadcasting Company 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).

(May 24, 2005-June 30, 2010) Nicknames: "The Lips of Satan", "Other SSL (Super Scary Lips)", "The Evil Laugh", "YAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-HA-HA-HA-HA!", "Stretch Films' Louder Cousin", "Loud Lips", "What's So Funny?", "The Mad Mouth", "Super Scary Face's Brother", "Asymmetrical's Twin Brother", "Splaat's Unsettling Cousin", "Goofy's Holler"

Logo: On a vignetted white background, we see a pair of red lips, letting out a loud, evil-sounding laugh. The camera zooms out as we see a large, crudely-done cyan 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: FX/SFX: The live-action lips green-screened against the background, the logo zooming out.
 * 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.

Music/Sounds: An unsettling loud laugh that vaguely resembles Goofy's holler, followed by a whoosh and a set of 2 clangs that repeats 3 times.

Music/Sounds Variant: The short version cuts out the laugh.

Availability: Extinct on television. It appeared on shows produced by the now-extinct network, such as Paradise Hotel 2 and Solitary.

Scare Factor: Depending on the variant: However, the scare factor is lower for those who are used to it.
 * Opening Variant: High to nightmare. The screaming and laughing lips are bound to scare and catch you off-guard. The fact that this was placed at the beginning of Fox Reality shows without any warning whatsoever only makes it worse.
 * Closing Variant: Low to medium. The sounds could freak some out, but the lip animation is cut out, thus making it much tamer.
