Background

This is the vanity card of Glen and Les Charles and James Burrows.

Logo (September 30, 1982-December 1993)

• 

Visuals: On a static blue background, we see four words sliding in from the sides of the screen, meeting in the center and forming a stack; the word "CHARLES" slides in from the left, then "BURROWS" from the right, afterwards "CHARLES" from the left, and finally "PRODUCTIONS" from the right. All the text is set in ITC American Typewriter, which was popular at the time this logo debuted.

Variant: On The Tortellis and the 1986 sitcom All is Forgiven, the logo appears slightly enhanced. The word "COMPANY" fades in below after the other words slide in.

Technique: 2D computer animation.

Audio: The end theme of the show.

Availability:

• It's found intact on all episodes of Cheers on Hallmark Channel, Decades, and Me-TV, as well as on DVD and VHS releases of said show.
• This was also seen on The Tortellis and the 1986 sitcom All is Forgiven when A&E last reran that show in the late 1980s.
