Deal-a-Meal Warning Screen
Logo descriptions by mr3urious and kidinbed
Logo capture and video courtesy of videohollic2008 for 1st warning; kidinbed (capture) and videos4everybody (video) for 2nd warning
1st Warning
(1988-Early 1990s)
Nickname: ''The Gun''
Logo: We see a hand holding a gun, the barrel facing us. The hand turns the cylinder and fires it. The words "FBI WARNING", in a thick red font with white shadows, zoom out, and the following text fades in, all in white:
The gun is fired again.
FX: The text and live-action BG footage.
Music/Sounds: Begins with a drumroll, then part of the Dragnet theme, a gunshot, and another gunshot accompanied by the sound of a body falling to the ground.
Availability: Rare; seen on a tape of Richard Simmons' "Sweatin' to the Oldies", of all things! :-)
Scare Factor: Medium to high for people who aren't expecting it, obviously due to the subject matter, but this is one of the more creative warning screens out there!
2nd Warning
(1989-Early 1990s)
Logo: We see a courtroom scene, possibly taken from an old movie. The guilty man confesses to copying "Sweatin' To The Oldies 2" on videotape, and is taken away. A newspaper spins out, and it says:
Music/Sounds: Speech included. A judge bangs his gavel and says, "ORDER IN THE COURT! ORDER IN THE COURT!!! Answer the question, did you or did you not copy Sweatin' to the Oldies 2?". We then see/hear a woman shaking and gritting her teeth. The judge says, "Well?", and the man says "I did.". Everyone gasps and the woman screams. The judge then says to two policemen, "Take 'im away, boys." A whoosh is heard when the newspaper spins out, and over accompanying sirens, the judge says "Don't even think about copyin' THIS videotape." A gavel sound is heard once more.
Availability: Rare; found on Sweatin' to the Oldies 2, of course.
Scare Factor: Low to high, because of the gavel sounds and subject matter, of course. But this is just as creative as the first warning, possibly even more so!
