Logo: Against a white background, we see the words

Bright Kauffman Crane

in a misaligned cartoonish Times-like typeface. Below in a reddish pink oval is "productions".

Variants:

On Family Album, it is followed by the text "in association with" separately on a white background, in the font used on the show's opening credits.
On Friends, Veronica's Closet and Jesse, the text "IN ASSOCIATION WITH" is seen below it in the Friends typeface.
On high-definition remastered prints of Friends, as well as Friends: The Reunion, the logo was enhanced.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: The end title theme from the show. On Friends: The Reunion, it is silent.

Availability: Common. It's seen on Friends. Lesser known shows that have this include Family Album (the logo's first appearance) as well as Jesse and Veronica's Closet. It would be later revived for Friends: The Reunion.

Editor's Note: This logo is considered well-known amongst the fans of Friends.
