Thunder Pictures

Nicknames: "The Thunderbolt", "Touchstone Pictures Rip-Off", "Castle Thunder"

Logo: On a white background, there's a blue ball outlined in gold with the word "THUNDER" to the left of it, and the word "PICTURES" to the right of it. Then, a yellow, cheesy-looking lightning bolt appears in the middle of the blue ball and begins to move up and down like a bolt of electricity. Under it is the copyright notice. We then fade out to the Nickelodeon Studios Florida ending logo.

FX/SFX: The thunderbolt.

Music/Sounds: The classic "castle thunder" lightning sound effect, heard when the lightning bolt appears. Sometimes an announcer will play over it.

Music/Sounds Variants:  On the Nickelodeon Friends Variety Pack VHS, the song “Better Than No One” plays over the logo.

Availability: This was only seen on Clarissa Explains It All.

Editor's Note: The design of the logo is somewhat copied from Touchstone Pictures, and the thunderbolt looks rather undetailed. The thunderclap can startle some, too.
