In this print, the credit "A Mark Goodson Bill Todman Production" was omitted (don't ask me why)- their names were usually missing from most of the syndicated episodes [including the announcer who declared, "This has been a Mark Goodson-Bill Todman production....in association with Sentinel Productions". That might have have something to do with the fact they eventually sold their interest in the series, and their names, for the most part, had to be removed.
Thanks so much for this find! I remember seeing the ending to "Branded" since I was 11 years old on WABC-TV back in 1989 when I was still in bed right before "Eyewitness News: This Morning" starts at 5:00 AM.
I remember watching after the credits, they showed the KingWorld logo that says "Presents" on it. This was from the beginning of an actual movie or TV show, not the ending to a TV show that was on.
Sadly, this 1983 KingWorld logo was shown in Film-O-Vision. Film-O-Vision rocks!
In some prints..one can see the goodson-todman byline..i saw it on metv's airing of "branded" on saturdays.

This is definitely the best attempt to make a newer logo look old that I have seen!

Heh, that's the first time I've seen a complete '83 KW logo online.

What show was this taken from?
roygerdodger 3 years ago
"Branded" (syndicated prints), as you can hear in the theme song.

"Branded" was one of the very few non-game shows that was credited as a Mark Goodson-Bill Todman production.

Yes, very interesting! But why is the KingWorld logo in Black & White?
cruiseshipz 3 years ago
Because that show was in B&W so that the logo can blend in. Makes sense.
ShaDeed329 3 years ago
Yes indeed. Anyways looks rare looking, especially in film-o-vision.

This is the magic of the Film-O-Vision.
