This was called the "N of doom" but this N was doomed.

What the heck was Dolphin Productions?

@Jnelson09Returns A production company producing ads and IDs based out of New York. They are long gone now.

@artistmac--

Awkward is exactly right; in fact, NBC had to shell out almost $1 million to the Nebraska ETV Network in order to keep this new logo for as long as they did before finally merging the peacock and the N logo in the summer of 1979.

A doomed logo!

NBC spent a good chunk of change developing this logo, only to find out later that a nearly identical version (all red instead of red and blue) was already being used by a Public Television station in Nebraska. Everybody say "awkward"!

The peacock returned superimposed on the "N" for the 1979-1980 season with the tagline, "NBC -- Proud as a Peacock!" Eventually, the "N" got dumped, and the peacock, which focus groups felt looked too much like a scallop shell, lost all but 6 of its feathers.

@Jnelson09Returns I believe that was the company that created this animation.

This N was doomed because the peacock had to force itself upon the N. “Let me in here or else!” it threatened.

The NBC Ident is awesome.

I don't understand how anyone could be afraid of this logo
