2nd Logo
Logo: On a fuchsia background we see a wordless Discovery Kids logo from before. Then, the white words "Discovery" starts appearing one by one and then followed by the word "KIDS" doing the same thing. While this is happening there is orange rings emitting from the logo, and there's a CG rocket flying around the logo with a trail following it. The rocket disappears but the trail then becomes a ring and dropping an orange earth planet with the continents being green. The ring bumps into the logo causing it to zoom forward and then back.

FX/SFX: The logo, the rings, and the formation of the logo.
Music/Sounds: The end theme of the show.
Availability: Ultra rare; it was seen after shows that aired on the channel like ToddWorld, and Bigfoot Presents: Meteor and the Mighty Monster Trucks. Many of these shows don't air on TV anymore; those that do usually delete it or will plaster it. It was preserved on on-demand prints of pre-Hub shows on-demand when the network became The Hub, but these were rendered extinct after the network changed its name to Discovery Family. It's intact on DVDs of their shows.
Editor's Note: A fondly remembered logo for those who watched Discovery Kids in the 2000's.
