Background: 2waytraffic is a Dutch entertainment company that was formed in 2004 by former Endemol executives Kees Abrahams, Unico Glorie and Taco Ketelaar that is based in Hilversum, the Netherlands. In December 2006, the company acquired Celador International and with it, the international rights to Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? On June 4, 2008, 2waytraffic was acquired by Sony Pictures Entertainment for £114.3 million ($223.2 million in US dollars) and is now under Sony Pictures Television International.
(2006- )
Nicknames: "The 3-D Arrows", "Rotating Arrows"
Logo: On a white background, we see a white 3-D arrow inside a purple 3-D circle pointing down to the other white arrow in a teal 3-D circle. We later see a white flash to reveal "2wa" in silver lettering, which later flashes again to the 2waytraffic logo as the name leans up from diagonal to horizontal while the arrows and circles twists and turns to position itself.
Later Variant: On 2waytraffic's site in October 2008, the flash player intro has the logo that features the byline "a SONY PICTURES ENTERTAINMENT company" under the name "2waytraffic" animating under the logo. However, the byline hasn't appeared yet on on-screen local syndicated episodes of Who Wants to Be A Millionaire?
FX: The animation. Nice CGI effects!
Music/Sounds: The end title theme from any show. The logo theme is a techno upbeat theme.
Availability: Common. Last seen on That's the Question on GSN (but hasn't been seen due to the compressed credits) and currently seen on post-2007 episodes of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? in local syndication. This logo is also seen across the globe on other game shows like 50-50, The Greatest Royalty Expert, That's the Question, Love Brokers, and Take it or Leave It, among others.
Scare Factor: None; it's a clean logo.
