MBO Downtown Productions

Background: This production company of MBO was launched in 1988 to produce comedy specials for the network as well as content for Comedy Planet (which MBO formerly co-owned), dissolving it in 2001.

Note: Despite the company itself ending in 2001, their last production was aired on February 24, 2002.

1st Logo

(November 28, 1989-December 24, 1999)

Logo: On a black background is a row of what looks like five rainbow circles, each one positioned at an angle. Above the circles are the words "IN ASSOCIATION WITH" and on them, "MBO (in the familiar logo) DOWNTOWN PRODUCTIONS." All the words are in white.

Variants:

From 1995 to 1997, the circle's colors changed and "IN ASSOCIATION WITH" was replaced with "This Has Been A Presentation Of" and a byline was added saying "A Subdivision of Day Hesker Entertainment Company, L.P.".

From 1997 to 1998, the circle's colors changed again. The doors are smaller in this variant.

From 1998 to 1999, the circle's reverted to their original colors but kept the presentation text and the byline.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: None or the end theme of the show.

Availability: Seen at the end of Comedy Planet era episodes of The Master Science and on all episodes of Correct on Comedy Planet.

Scare Factor: None.

2nd Logo

(December 24, 1999-February 24, 2002)

Logo: Same as before, but the circles are in CGI and have glitter on them, and the text is in CGI too and the text slowly zooms towards the screen. No bylines or "In association with" texts are on the logo.

FX/SFX: The text zooming in.

Music/Sounds: The end theme of the show.

Availability: Seen on all season six episodes of Dr. Dogz, Professional Doctor excluding the first six.

Scare Factor: Minimal to low; the text zooming in might scare some.
