Background: Jumbo Pictures was the production company founded by animator/childrens' book author Jim Jinkins (creator of Doug). Jinkins sold the company, and the rights to Doug with it, to The Walt Disney Company in 1996. The company continued operations until the cancellation of the Playhouse Disney cartoon series PB&J Otter in 2000. Jinkins is still active in animation, forming the production house Cartoon Pizza in 2000.

Nickname: "The Egg"

Logo: On a dark blue background, we see a large egg with "JUMBO" in front of it, and "PICTURES" below (in far smaller type), with the text "GRADE A QUALITY" on the bottom. The surrounding area dims as the egg's shadow becomes visible.

Variants: Starting in 1992, the background became vanilla cream colored, and in 2000, the background became light blue. On the 1999 film Doug's 1st Movie, the egg is smaller and the background is a different shade of light blue.

FX/SFX: The shadow.

Music/Sounds: In most cases, the closing of the show's theme was heard during this logo, but sometimes it would have a customized theme. On Allegra's Window it was a dramatic tune to the beat of the show's theme song accompanied by a chicken cocking. On the first season of the Nickelodeon version of Doug it was a beatboxing tune that carried over to the Nickelodeon logo. For all later Nickelodeon-produced episodes after that, a snippet of background music from the show (consisting of a 1930s-style acoustic guitar and trumpet like sounder) was used with the second variant of the logo. The Disney's (Brand Spanking New) Doug series has the closing of the show's theme playing over the logo, like other shows. On Doug's 1st Movie, you can hear a sampling of the Disney's (Brand Spanking New) Doug theme music.

Availability: Pretty rare nowadays.
On television, it was last seen when the original Doug was reran on Nicktoons Network in 2005. Home video releases of Doug, PB&J Otter, Allegra's Window, Rocko's Modern Life and Doug's 1st Movie keep the logo intact. The dark blue background variant was on Season 1 episodes of Doug.

Scare Factor: Low to medium for the Allegra's Window and Nickelodeon's Doug variants, and none for the later variants. It mainly depended on the music heard during the logo (both Nickelodeon and Disney versions)
