Trivia:
- The "S" logo was designed and animated by Chermayeff & Geismar Associates of New York, a firm also responsible for the six-feathered NBC Peacock, the 1984 PBS logo, the Viacom "Wigga Wigga" logo, and the Chase Manhattan Bank logo, among other designs.
- In the movie Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, the jingle can (partially) be heard on a television. Depending on how you feel, it may seem appropriate that said TV is somewhere on the Manson Compound. The logo's music is credited in the end credits of the movie.
