Background: Shortly after the purchase of Turner Entertainment by parent company Time Warner, the company's syndication arm was relaunched as Telepictures Distribution in 1996 (replacing Turner Program Services). The company distributed non-Warner Bros. produced programming to which the syndication rights have been licensed to Warner and/or Turner as well as Warner properties such as re-runs of The West Wing and The Jamie Foxx Show. In 2003, Telepictures Distribution was folded into Warner Bros. Television Distribution.
(1996-2003)
Nickname: "Magnifying Glass Ball"
Logo: On a blue background, a glass-like ball passes across the middle bringing forth:
....just like the original logo, except updated with a gold font for "Telepictures." "DISTRIBUTION" is in white. The words in the ball look as if they are being magnified. When the logo is finished a flash of light appears in the center and spins upward to dot the "i" in "Telepictures." The entire logo then shines.
FX: The CGI glass ball passing over the letters, the logo shining.
Music/Sounds: A majestic uplifting orchestral piece with a chime-like sound at the end. The end theme may also play over it.
Availability: Currently seen on reruns of Mama's Family on AOL's In2TV, and The Jamie Foxx Show on BET and The CW Television Network.
Scare Factor: Low.
