Nicknames: "The Evil Eye", "The Yellow Eye" (1st variant), "The Rainbow Eye" (2nd variant), "The Rainbow Eye-The Gray/Blue Eye Transition" (3rd variant), "The Creepy O From Ontario" , "The CBS Eye's Half Brother", "The Jaundiced Eye"

Logo: There are three different variants of this logo. O ONTARIO
 * Variant 1: Against a black background, a large yellow "eye" composed of concentric circles comes in from the left, which flips around. As it flips, it is revealed that the eye is bent slightly. The circles look somewhat like this:
 * They are all arranged diagonally, at opposing right angles. As the eye makes its way to the center of the screen, all the circles (except the innermost one, which fades to white) collapse below it, one by one, forming a white horizontal line. Then, it unfolds into the words

Cheesy Factor: The music sounds like a Moog synth being wiped on the keys, and the animation looks very cheap.

Music/Sounds: An ominous, warbling Moog synthesizer piece, which gets even louder when the logo is fully formed.
