Background: Not to be confused with a current film distributor also called InterMedia (The Quiet American, Iris, Adaptation), this was the production company of Fred Silverman, which changed its name to The Fred Silverman Company in 1987.



InterMedia Entertainment Company


(1982-1987)


Nickname: "InterMedia Rainbow"

Logo: On a black background, we see big rainbow-colored words “InterMedia” with an u
nderline stretching across and smaller words written below it Intermedia Entertainment Company“Intermedia Entertainment Company”:

-------------InterMedia-------------
Intermedia Entertainment Company

FX/SFX: None.

Cheesy Factor: Nitpicking maybe, but how hard could it be to make this logo? No animation, no music, it just sits there! Try a bit harder next time.

Music/Sounds: None, the end theme finished over it.

Availability: Since many of Silverman's shows during this era were not big hits, this logo is very hard to find. Survives on the first season of Matlock.

Scare Factor: Low; not that scary, nothing surprising either; the follow-up logo would be just a LITTLE BIT more interesting, though.

The Fred Silverman Company


(1987-2001)

Nickname: "Mirrored FS"

Logo: On a black background, some stylized pink letters fade in, which are Fred Silverman’s initials “FS” as reflected ala a “mirror” effect in four different directions: left, right, below left, and below right. The words “THE FRED SILVERMANFred Silverman’s Companies - CLG Wiki COMPANY” appear on the logo. The end result approximates this:

FSSF
THE FRED SILVERMAN COMPANY
FSSF

FX/SFX: Just the logo and words appearing.

Cheesy Factor: Slightly better but that’s not saying much; this logo and its formation SFX are STILL too plain, not to mention quite ugly.

Music/Sounds: The end theme of a show.

Availability: Seen intact on Matlock, In The Heat of the Night and Diagnosis Murder reruns. Also appears on Twenty One reruns on GSN. Also appeared on Father Dowling Mysteries and Jake and the Fatman whenever those shows get reran.

Scare Factor: Low to medium; the ugliness combined with dramatic end themes may be a bit of a shock, but nothing nightmare-inducing.
