Background

Everything is Terrible! is a video blogging website from Los Angeles, CA that features unusual, dated, and campy clips of VHS tapes from the late 20th century. The project was founded in 2000 by a group of friends while at Ohio University. "Every weekend or free afternoon they get", according to NPR, they search at thrift stores, garage sales, and bargain bins for the worst and most outrageous VHS tapes to share with each other. The website was launched in 2007, which the CBC once called "the best site ever".

(2007-)

• 

  The version with the VHS effect.

• 

  The same picture, but without the VHS effect.

Logo: On a space background, we see four copies of the outlined words "EVERYTHING IS TERRIBLE!" in a Bauhaus font appear from the bottom-right, colored orange, yellow, blue and red. Then, a light blue colored duplicate appears fading in, placing on the outlined words and shining afterwards.

Variants:

• On some videos, the logo is seen transparent over the ending.
• There is a version without the VHS effect, which is shorter and animates slower.
• On Everything is Terrible! The Movie!, the logo is interfered with footage of various people who appear on tapes presented by EIT.
• On Gigglefudge, U.S.A., the logo is cropped to widescreen and is shortened.

FX/SFX: The words appearing and shining, which completely screams cheesy 80's effects.

Music/Sounds: The theme from the 1982 Lionheart Television logo.

Music/Sounds Variants:

• On some videos, the closing theme plays over the logo.
• On the Adult Swim special Gigglefudge, U.S.A., the theme was rearranged without the “bleeps and bloops”.

Availability: Seen on some of their videos on their YouTube channel of the same name and the aforementioned Gigglefudge, U.S.A.
