The pre-design or first design of the block. Johnny Test only existed in this design also.

The second design of Laughternoons. It features characters in high colors resembling Check It 3.0. The text color of the block was also inverted compared to the pre-design. This is still used on the intro of the block, and the normal simulcast gaps for some feeds.

The third design of the block. However there were few changes, Finn was dragged to the top of the text, replacing the "Bearstack" on it. Jake was removed and also Rigby in the top after Finn was moved. This is only seen rarely and it can be seen from premieres of shows (such as delivering new episodes). This is also used on block break bumpers in the Philippines feed.



The fourth but temporary design of the block. This was only used during the debut and continuity of Total Drama Ridonculous Race and only lasted for quite a while. The only change in this design was Uncle Grandpa is replaced by the show's protagonist.

The fifth and current design of the block. Notable changes include Clarence was moved to the top of the newly resized Bearstack, the previous position of Clarence was replaced by the Powerpuff Girls. Also, Gumball was removed beside Darwin, replacing Steven that is also beside Darwin because of the Powerpuff Girls.
