Background: Tollin/Robbins Productions is a film and television production company founded by Mike Tollin and Brian Robbins, the latter probably best known for his role as Eric Mardian in the 1980s TV series Head of the Class. Joe Davola is also an unofficial partner in the company and has co-produced many of the company's productions along with Robbins and Tollin since 2000. Despite his involvement with the company, the production firm's name remains.

Logo: On a black background, we see the green-camouflage colored letters "TRP" unfolding. The text "Tollin/Robbins Productions" reveals itself below. The first letter of each word matches the "TRP" logo.
FX/SFX: The unfolding letters. Sometimes, it's still.
Music/Sounds: Originally, it was a line from a character from the preceding show:
Editor's Note: Fondly remembered by those who watched Nickelodeon's live action shows. Might surprise some who end up watching Smallville directly afterwards!_______________________________________________________________

(1998-2003?)
Nicknames: "MTR", "MTR Zoom-Out"
Logo: Against a black background, wee see three letters: "M" (in silver) above and "T", and "R" (both in blue) below all in the same font as the TRP logo zooming-out slowly and places itself in the center. Then, "arquee",
"ollin /", and "obbins" in the same respective color as its respective letters appear.
FX/SFX: The zoom-out letters.

FX/SFX: The unfolding letters. Sometimes, it's still.
Music/Sounds: Originally, it was a line from a character from the preceding show:
- All That:
- Season 1-5: Kenan Thompson as Mavis: "Hey Clavis! Wake up! The Show is over." Kel Mitchell as Clavis: "Oh yeah, kick it!"
- Season 7: Bryan Hearne as Zigfried the Cab Driver: "Dorn quiet! Jerk."
- Season 8: Jack DeSena as Randy Quench: Volunteer Fireman: "Here comes me!"
- Season 9: Jamie Lynn Spears as Thelma Stump: "Bright and goo"
- Season 10: A random quote from the specific episode
- All That 10th Anniversary Special: Kenan Thompson as Lester Oaks, Constrution Worker: "Crunch bunny!!"
- Kenan & Kel: Kenan Rockmore, played by Kenan Thompson: "WHYYYYYYYYY??!!!!"
- Cousin Skeeter: Skeeter, played by Bill Bellamy: "I'm okay! I'm oh-kay."
- The Amanda Show: Penelope Taynt, played by Amanda Bynes: "Amanda, please!" On at least one episode of The Amanda Show, Penelope is heard yelling "WHEEEEERE'S AMANDA?!" instead.
- Another episode of The Amanda Show had Moody's mom, played by Maureen McCormick yelling "MOODY!!"
- Between 2001 and 2002, it was completely silent.
- Starting in 2002, a quiet string stinger was heard.
- Sometimes, it's the ending of the show's theme song, like in The Bronx is Burning.
- A generic theme was used on NBC airings of the short lived drama Inconceivable.
- On episode 4 of "Birds with Prey", the 1994Warner Bros Television music comes slightly early which causes part of the logo to play with the music.
Availability: Common. The final version appears on Smallville(although the silent variant was used on the first season) and What I Like About You on TeenNick. The older versions are currently seen on Kenan & Kel, The Amanda Show, and All That on DVD and iTunes, and appears on the first and last series on TeenNick's "The Splat" block. It will probably be intact on Cousin Skeeter if it gets reran in the future. The still version appeared on Arli$$ on its compilation DVD release. The All That variant made a surprise appearance on The Amanda Show during a March 2002 airing on SNICK. The silent variant also appears on season six of All That, mostly due to Thompson & Mitchell's departure from the show.
