P*I*T*S FILMS logo is what made Good Times actually Good Times and without it there is no Good Times especially since they still air Good Times on TV One without even showing this logo.
Years ago, I belonged to the Closing Logo Group on Yahoo and this was a much sought after logo. I remember taping GT on TBS, which at the time was rerunning the show at 4am! Caught it when they reran JJ's art school in their apt episode. it was a happy day for logo lovers.
@JimHawkwind03411 Yeah, me too. I started watching Good Times reruns on WPIX when I was a tottler and this particular logo appeared when the show went off. It has a nice, pleasant, electric keyboard synth tone. The melody is also nice. That logo really takes me back.
The last time anyone saw it was by accident: when TBS had the rights to Good Times, one episode had it, followed by the Columbia TriStar boxes of boredom.
This was seen on original syndicated versions of "Sanford and Son" and "Maude". P*I*T*S meant "Pie in the Sky."
Norman Lear sure loved those synthesizers. You want to talk rare logos, there was a TAT Communications logo that I saw once on The Jeffersons on WGN in 1994 and haven't seen since. The original syndication prints would usually bear no logo until the Embassy-era episodes.

This would be wicked if the 1974-90 MCA TV Logo was to be used

I wish someone could upload it. That's probably the rarest logo in existence.

That's one I'd like to see as well (TAT). I saw it on the same station about a year after that and like you, never saw it again.

I always have a good laugh with this logo: in my mother language (Catalan), "PITS" means "BREASTS".
