Background

The Wiggles Pty Ltd. is the business owned company founded in 1991 which is created by the founders of the Australian kids' music band, The Wiggles. The band did not yet have an on-screen logo until 1997.

1st Logo (1997-1999)

Logo: There is a blue background with swirls, a purple sky, red clouds, and yellow ground. A girl wearing blue-and-yellow overalls stands in front of a canvas picking up some paint off of an easel with her paintbrush. Then she touches the canvas with her paintbrush, and The Wiggles logo appears via a blur effect. Then the girl disappears and the logo shines.

Trivia: The girl in the logo is actually Emma Ryan, who loved The Wiggles when she was a kid. Eventually, she would replace Greg Page as the yellow Wiggle.

FX/SFX: A combination of chroma-key technology and CGI.

Music/Sounds: A calm, whimsical music box tune.

Music/Sounds Variant: On "Spooked Wiggles" and "Funny Greg", The Chase (Instrumental) overlaps the logo for a few seconds making the music box tune out of sync. It's unknown if this was an error or not.

Availability: Scarce. Series 1 of The Wiggles no longer airs in Australia, nor has it aired in the United States since the mid-2000s, when it aired on Playhouse Disney (now Disney Junior) (though it may have aired for a period on Sprout, now Universal Kids). However, VHS recordings of The Wiggles (Series 1), HIT Extras and the Series 1 boxset may definitely have this on them.

Editor's Note: This logo is a favorite among The Wiggles fans.

2nd Logo (September 30, 2002-)

Logo: We only just see the The Wiggles logo itself placed superimposed on the credits at the very top middle on a black background and also is still. But the logo is cut a bit much mid-longer enough, approaching all the way to the last half ten seconds or so. Then the TV show's logo finally fades off to black from the whole entire screen. Copyrighted year and copyrighted notice info (either in white or in other colors) given can also be seen way below to the middle of the bottom throughout the entire ending credits of the series, depending on the season/episode of any year that has been released out.

Variant(s):

  • A special funding interatrial for the Unicef Foundation, as part of The Wiggles, which aired around 2008, has the Unicef logo being appeared on the right sided corner next to beside of the latter show's logo exactly being placed on the left-sided one.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: Usually so far it's the ending theme of The Wiggles. On some episodes of the latter, then meaning it can be none.

Availability: Current. Seen on The Wiggles (TV series), Ready...Steady...Wiggle!, Wiggle! Wiggle! Wiggle!, Emma!, Lachy!, Wiggly, Wiggly Christmas!, Wiggle Town and as well on other franchises of works from the said given brand.

Editor's Note: This is a cool-looking logo for early-childhood aged fans of The Wiggles franchise.
