===Background===
In 1999, '''[[Ghost Planet Industries]]''' was renamed to '''Williams Street''' and it expanded to produce anything beyond ''SGC2C'' and Toonami, which included the new Midnight Run and Rising Sun blocks. The company heralded the creation of Adult Swim in 2001, with such shows like ''Harvey Birdman: Attroney at Law'' and ''Aqua Teen Hunger Force''. The company also opened a small subsidiary in 2003 as [[Williams Street West]] so that their creative director, Matt Harrigan could work for [[Viacom (1971-2006)|Viacom International]] and Williams Street without having to return to Atlanta constantly. It closed its doors shortly after he stopped working for Viacom (though the subsidiary was revived in 2017, however, it was closed again in 2020). All of the company's shows are currently aired on [[Adult Swim]].

'''Space Ghost Coast to Coast (Chambraigne) (1999):''' The first episode (and show period) to use a Williams Street logo as well as the only SGC2C episode to use the second Williams Street logo. Space Ghost states over the logo: "They're out there. They're shining, with eyes of hard plastic. And blue hair...BLUE AS THE NIGHT."

'''Logo:''' Same as the [[Ghost Planet Industries]] logo, except the text reads "'''WILLIAMS STREET'''" in a Futura-like font.


'''Brak Presents The Brak Show Starring Brak (2000):''' The logo is printed on a tape on a space background.
'''Early Variant:''' Some early shows with the logo contain the letters farther apart (in a different font), the waving is bigger and it has a smoother and faster rate, and had better image quality.
[[File:Williams Street (Tape Variant).png|350px]]
----


'''Space Ghost Coast to Coast (Flipmode) (2001):''' The logo is in static and as a result barely viewable.
'''Trivia:''' This early logo variant was featured in an Adult Swim bump from 2010.
[[File:WilliamsStreetFlipmode.png|center|350px]]
----


'''Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law (Bannon Custody Battle) (2000):''' The logo is tinted {{color|blue}}. This is also the only episode to use any Williams Street logo.
'''Variants:'''
[[File:Williams Street (Blue Variant).png|center|350px]]
*On most Adult Swim shows from 2012-2022, the logo has (barely readable) Cartoon Network copyright information that also waves like the logo, and it does not cut to the Cartoon Network "Skull". Also, the logo has been converted to letterbox. A few shows from the time frame however don't use the copyright info, alongside shows returning from that time frame in 2022 due to the merger of WarnerMedia and Discovery.
----
**From 2018-2022, the "A Time Warner Company." part of the byline is replaced with "A WarnerMedia Company.", the rest of the logo though is the same. The reason for this is due to the AT&T acquisition of Time Warner which changed the latter's name to WarnerMedia on June 14, 2018.
**On season 2 of ''Birdgirl'', the copyright information is different, longer, and in a different font (presumably Impact?) and it no longer waves like the logo. Most of the time, the logo is slightly moved up to make room for said copyright information.
*On ''Mister America'', the logo appears in the end credits alongside the [[Magnolia Pictures]] and [[Abso Lutely Productions]] logos.
*On the first episode of ''Blade Runner: Black Lotus'', the copyright information appears for a split-second before disappearing.
*On ''Your Pretty Face Is Going To Hell: The Cartoon'', ''Aqua Teen Forever: Plantasm'', and the ''Adult Swim Yule Log'', the logo is redrawn and the "'''WILLIAMS STREET'''" text is in a different font.
*On the pilot of ''Stroker & Hoop'', the early version has a copyright notice below the logo.
'''Technique:''' Same as the [[Ghost Planet Industries]] logo.


'''Sealab 2021 (Murphy Murph and the Feng Shui Bunch) (2002):''' Master Shake from Aqua Teen Hunger Force (who in the final bit of the episode became enraged at Meatwad for beating him in a video game), having just broken the [[70/30 Productions]] logo (which he believes is Meatwad's), continues to break the Williams Street logo as "it's cheap looking".
'''Music/Sounds:''' Same as the [[Ghost Planet Industries]] logo, but starting in late 1999, it was cut down to two hammer strikes.


Master Shake (voiced by Dana Snyder): "Seventy-Thirty. Is this yours?"
'''Music/Sounds Variants:'''
*In other cases, it used the closing theme of the show (if you listen closely, certain shows (such as early seasons of ''Robot Chicken'') still have a bit of Master Shake from ''ATHF'' (voiced by Dana Snyder) yelling "Dance!" really quickly, which is taken from him saying "Dancing is forbidden!" from the first episode of ''ATHF'').
*Sometimes, it's silent.
*On ''Squidbillies'', it's the respective ending theme of the show.
*On ''The Eric Andre Show'' episode "The Eric Andre Show 15", the logo cuts out early and we hear the 2nd hammer strike while the screen is black.
*On ''The Eric Andre Show'' season 2 finale, the logo has a darker sound that gets slightly louder.
*On ''Aqua Something You Know Whatever'' (the ninth season of ''ATHF''), a random quote from the specific episode is right after a hammer strike.
*On the ''China, IL'' episode "Dream Reamer", a "Skull!" sound from the 2001 Cartoon Network Productions logo is heard.
*On the season 3 finale of ''Rick and Morty'' on Netflix, the French audio track has a low pitched version, which is also the case for the other logos before it and the whole episode.
*On the ''Off the Air'' episode "Moon", musak is heard instead.
*On the ''Your Pretty Face Is Going To Hell'' episode "Fried Alive", a shotgun sound effect with a splatter is heard due to the end of the episode, in which a Hell employee tries to commit suicide by shooting himself through the mouth.
*On the ''Gemusetto'' episode "Episode Two: A# Minor", the tail end of the next-week music and the man's dialogue is heard instead.


Meatwad (off screen, voiced by Dave Willis): "That's not mine!"
'''Availability:''' Common. Can be seen on most shows Williams Street has produced, and ''SGC2C'' episodes from season 6. It is also seen at the beginning of ''Aqua Teen Hunger Force: Colon Movie Film for Theaters''. It can also be seen on the pilot episode of ''Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law'', ''Rick and Morty'', as well as season 5 of ''Samurai Jack'', and the 2 new ''FLCL'' seasons (Progressive and Alternative) as well. Strangely, this logo does not appear on ''IGPX'' (both the 2003 microseries and the full 26-episode show from 2005), probably due to the fact that the show aired on CN's Toonami rather than on Adult Swim. The early version was first seen on the ''SGC2C'' episode "Chambraigne", and is regularly seen on ''Sealab 2021'', ''Squidbillies'' (seasons 1 and 2; except for "Giant Foam Dickhat Trouble"), ''Frisky Dingo'', ''Lucy: The Daughter of the Devil'' (starting with the second episode) and season 2 of ''Delocated''. It was also seen on the first episode of ''Stroker and Hoop''.

Immediately after this, the Aqua Teens and Carl are seen watching the logo on their TV (before the second hammer, which is heard as if coming from the TV). All four are quite disappointed that the last episode ended in such a way. Meatwad notices this is still technically the last moments and proposes they do a joke, only to be cut off by the [[Georgia Entertainment Industries|Made in Georgia]] logo.

Revision as of 10:15, 3 February 2023


These are the logo variations seen throughout the years by Williams Street Productions, with more to be added overtime.

Space Ghost Coast to Coast (Chambraigne) (1999): The first episode (and show period) to use a Williams Street logo as well as the only SGC2C episode to use the second Williams Street logo. Space Ghost states over the logo: "They're out there. They're shining, with eyes of hard plastic. And blue hair...BLUE AS THE NIGHT."


Brak Presents The Brak Show Starring Brak (2000): The logo is printed on a tape on a space background.


Space Ghost Coast to Coast (Flipmode) (2001): The logo is in static and as a result barely viewable.


Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law (Bannon Custody Battle) (2000): The logo is tinted blue. This is also the only episode to use any Williams Street logo.


Sealab 2021 (Murphy Murph and the Feng Shui Bunch) (2002): Master Shake from Aqua Teen Hunger Force (who in the final bit of the episode became enraged at Meatwad for beating him in a video game), having just broken the 70/30 Productions logo (which he believes is Meatwad's), continues to break the Williams Street logo as "it's cheap looking".

Master Shake (voiced by Dana Snyder): "Seventy-Thirty. Is this yours?"

Meatwad (off screen, voiced by Dave Willis): "That's not mine!"

Master Shake: "Cause it's gone!"

Meatwad: "You're breaking somebody else's things now." (Shake breaks the 70/30 logo, followed by the Williams Street logo)

Master Shake: "It's cheap looking, and it's outta here." (Shake breaks the Williams Street logo, followed by the Cartoon Network logo) "What kind of crap is this, did an elephant paint this?!"


Squidbillies (Meth O.D. to My Madness) (2006): The logo is squished to the left with Early's PSA on the right.

Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film for Theaters (2007): The logo appears at the beginning, stays on screen significantly longer to the point of tedium, and plays an ominous synth drone (which begins over the First Look Studios logo) with one bell. When it finally fades out, "PRESENTS" in the same font is seen on the white background fading back in as a lower synth drone with one lower bell plays. After one final fade out, "THIS MOVIE" appears absurdly quick (JUST long enough to hear part of the bell) before smash cutting back to black.


Xavier: Renegade Angel (Bloodcorn) (2007): The logo is red due to the end of the episode, in which the planet Earth cries blood that floods the universe after turning into a giant eyeball.


Earth Ghost (2011): The logo is in sepia.


"The Eric Andre Show (Scott Porter; Brutus "The Barber" Beefcake (2013):' The logo is fuzzier than usual.


Aqua Teen Hunger Force Forever (The Greatest Story Ever Told) (2015): The final episode of the ATHF franchise (the last four seasons were for comedic effect renamed and treated as different shows altogether for no reason). Two gags with Williams Street were done for the occasion:

First, the logo itself cuts off the credits even earlier then usual. The end credits scene of the episode is Meatwad and Frylock stating that they will live and be on TV forever (obviously an intentional jab at it being the last episode) only to be cut off by the logo.

Immediately after this, the Aqua Teens and Carl are seen watching the logo on their TV (before the second hammer, which is heard as if coming from the TV). All four are quite disappointed that the last episode ended in such a way. Meatwad notices this is still technically the last moments and proposes they do a joke, only to be cut off by the Made in Georgia logo.


The Eric Andre Show (Bird Up) (2015): Eric Andre in a green suit with a parrot appears at the bottom left corner of the screen, saying "Yah Boobay" over and over again.


Off the Air (NEWNOW) ("Analog Video Remix") (2015): The logo is shaded midnight blue, mimicking the retro VHS theme of the episode. The word "EJECT" is also seen.


Children's Hospital (The Show You Watch) (2016): The logo is redesigned to fit in with the 50s motif of the episode, like all the other logos along with it. The logo is now flat, simplistic, and more cartoony, sort of resembling a UPA/H-B background design, and the "WILLIAMS STREET" text is also in a different font. The logo does not wave in this variant, and thus is completely still, no animation and without any copyright information at all.

---

Off the Air (Patterns) (2019): The logo appears on Space Ghost's monitor with an airplane passing by leaving behind trails of smoke.
