No Universal Studios TV logo?! Are you kidding?

[badwx]

This is from the DVD and I was really suprised when I saw that. Isn't that aggravating? And what about that ridiculous Mark VII logo. What happened to the big hammer?

Give me a shot of D5W and transport me back to the '70s as soon as possible

[Juliaflo]

What, no mallet at the end of the credits?

Season 2 was part of the seasons where Mark VII Limited was using the "Shocking Gold" logo instead of its famous hammer chiseling the Mark VII logo into stone. By the time season three came around (season six for "Adam-12"), the hammer was back, but only did its chiseling one time.

Willard Sage was the actor who played Chester Daviit in the 1954 classic film "Dragnet", Keven Dobson was a cop before going to New York City as Inspector Crocker on "Kojak", and Jack Dodson was Howard Sprague on "The Andy Griffith Show" and "Mayberry RFD"

Billy May may be a fellow Pittsburgh-er, but in my book, Nelson Riddle still rules this theme!

[megamanj2004X]

That's right.

[AllRequired]

In other words, we got only the last half of the hammer.

[DJKhrome]

I agree with you! ShaDeed, mad props for your knowledge, but damn man, you're wound too tight when it comes to NBC Universal! Lighten up!

The Japanese company in question was Matsushita Electric (Panasonic).

The sale to Seagram's was because of differences of attitudes between Matsushita and Universal.

That's b/c this is the "Shocking Gold" version of the "Mark VII" logo, where the words "A Production of Mark VII Limited" took up the whole screen on a red-orange like B/G. This version lasted for 2 years from 1971-73. By the Fall of '73 the Hammer and Hand returned but w/ one clang and a faster sequence.

Also, in conjunction w/ the "Shocking Gold" logo, that was also when the closing credits on most Universal TV by fall 1971 no longer faded and the Uni-TV Globe would now be in still mode.
