Logo descriptions and captures by Michael BassBackground: Shukovsky English Entertainment is the production company of the
Murphy Brown executive producer Joel Shukovsky as well as
Murphy Brown creator and executive producer Diane English.
1st Logo
(1985-1992)
Logo: On a black screen, we see the names "Shukovsky" and "English" coming onto the screen with each other as the words finish, we see the logo's company name, followed by a red thunder bolt-like line, which slides from the top of the screen striking a another smaller red line in-between Shukovsky and English, causing the Shukovsky/English name to flash briefly before the words "In Association With" appear below.
FX/SFX: The words Shukovsky and English coming onto the screen, breaking apart from one another, the red lightning bolt-like line striking another red line, the brief flash of the Shukovsky/English name.
Music/Sounds: Usually the closing theme of whatever show uses this show.
Availability: Possibly extinct. Was seen on early episodes of
Murphy Brown, which, when reran on TV Land, the original logo is plastered with the second (and current) logo. This was also seen on the short-lived 1985 sitcom
Foley Square.Scare Factor: Low to medium for the most part.
2nd Logo
(1992-2008?)
Logo: On a black outer space background that shows a quarter of the planet Earth, we see the 3D letters "SEE" animate and take their place in the center. As the "SEE" animates, the color of the shadowing of the letters changes from orange to blue. Below ''SEE'' appears the words "SHUKOVSKY ENGLISH ENTERTAINMENT".
FX/SFX: The animation of ''SEE'', the changing of the shadowing's color, the appearance of the words.
Variant: There is also a variant where the background is green instead of black.
Music/Sounds: The end theme of whatever show the logo comes on.
Availability: Appeared on the final seasons of
Murphy Brown. This might also be on the 2008 movie
The Women. The version with the green background also appeared on the sitcom
Love and War.
Scare Factor:Again, Low to medium.
