Klasky Csupo

## Trivia

* Strangely, the KC Splaat logo appeared on early airings of the *SpongeBob SquarePants* episode "Wet Painters/Krusty Krab Training Video". This was an editing mistake made by Nickelodeon when they first started using split-screen credits; normally, Nick makes custom credits for each of its series and its producers. K-C was the only company at the time, besides Frederator, that produced multiple Nicktoons, and Nick created a generic one for these shows [which mentioned Klasky and Csupo as producers and included Splaat], but, on the said episode of *SpongeBob*, Nick accidentally used the K-C split-screen credits for that episode. This was fixed in 2006 and the United Plankton Pictures logo has been seen on the episode ever since, but it's still one of the oddest editing mistakes ever made.

* On the VHS releases of *Rugrats in Paris*, the "computer voice" uttering the Klasky-Csupo name is actually closed captioned. The same happens in *The Wild Thornberrys Movie*, but Splaat's voice is referred to as a "computerized voice". Additionally, the sound effects after Splaat's disappearance are also closed captioned (including the lip-flapping sound being referred to s a "voice blubbering" and the duck quacking sound labeled as "novelty horn honks").

* On October 2015 to May 2017 airings of *Hey Arnold!* on The Splat, this logo appeared instead of the Snee-Oosh logo for the same reason stated above. This was fixed by the time the programming block was rebranded into "NickSplat". Strangely, only TeenNick SD was affected by this error, as TeenNick HD had the correct logos.

* At the July 2012 Comic-Con venue in San Diego, California, the day before Klasky-Csupo was relaunched, Arlene Klasky mentioned that she found, as claimed, "a bunch of fan mashups" of their production logo, in which she also added that the mashups might have been created in part with how many people explained their experience with the logo as kids, and how it "scared" them, so she later decided to give the "robot" character a name: Splaat. Splaat was also given arms, legs, and a more noticeable ability to speak; his voice is done by Greg Cipes. The character was originally intended to be in an animated PSA, with Splaat explaining his confusion about why these mashups exist, and then adding that he is, in fact, *not* a robot, but rather an ink splat, which is how his name originated. He stars in his own web series, which you can see here. You can see Splaat's PSA here, or the full Comic-Con event here. It is also worth mentioning that, according to Klasky, this logo was *not* intended to be scary.

* On a February 12, 2016 airing of the *Rocko's Modern Life* episode "Fish-N-Chumps/Camera Shy" on The Splat, this logo appeared instead of the Games Animation logo for, again, the same reasons stated above.

* Continuing on these Strange Events, the KC Splaat logo is also appearing after the credits of Hey Arnold! instead of the Snee-oosh logo on TeenNick's The Splat night events. It got replaced in May 2017.

* In 2012, the face was given the name "Splaat" and was also given arms and legs. He stars in his own webseries called "RoboSplaat!", voiced by Greg Cipes.

* If you look closely at the Rooster logo, you may notice he has the same eyes as the Splaat logo.
