Salt Lake City, Utah


1st (known) Logo
(1985-1993)


Nickname: "The Live-Action Mountain", "Irritating Music!"

Logo: Against a live-action background of a snow-capped peak that we fly over, we see a bright flash on the screen, which unveils the letters "KUED" in a futuristic font, colored greenish-yellow, and below that, the words "Salt Lake City" in the same font, but smaller and colored orange, wipe in via a star, just like in the Hanna-Barbera Home Video logo, and a few stars can be seen blinking on the logo, even as we fade out.

FX: The flash, the wiping in of the logo. I mean, the live-action background is cool, but...

Cheesy Factor: ...the animation is very early CGI, plus the music is more irritating than WGBH's!

Music/Sounds: A loud, squeaky, five-note synth-chime tune that seems to get so loud, it can hurt your ears (ouch!)

Availability: Rare.

Scare Factor: Medium to high, due to the loud, squeaky music.
