Background

This is the vanity card of Greg Daniels, the creator of the NBC sitcoms The Office and Parks and Recreation (along with Michael Schur, who also owns a production company, Fremulon) and the Fox sitcom King of the Hill (along with Mike Judge, who also owns a production company, Judgemental Films).

1st Logo (January 12, 1997-May 20, 2010)


Logo: Superimposed over an American flag, we see the text "DEEDLE-DEE PRODUCTIONS, JUDGEMENTAL FILMS & 3 ARTS ENTERTAINMENT" in white, and written in the same font as the King of the Hill closing credits. "in association with" is written below in a different font.

Variant: On French and Quebecois airings, there's no American flag background, with everything on a black background. Another French airing has the credits in a different font.

Technique: None.

Music/Sounds: A random quote from the preceding episode of King of the Hill. In the show's 1st season, it was silent or had the sound effects/music that played on the episode's final scene.

Availability: Can be seen on King of the Hill.

2nd Logo (March 24, 2005-May 16, 2013)

Logo: On a black background, we see a childish drawing with the text "DEEDLE-DEE PRODUCtions" on a light blue box. The letters of each drawing have various designs, such as stripes and polka dots.

Trivia: The logo was drawn by Greg Daniels' son.

Variants:

  • In 2009, the right side of the logo has been cropped, so the text now appears centered.
  • In 2010, the logo was made smaller, and more of the light blue box can be seen.

Technique: None.

Music/Sounds: From 2005 to 2007, the logo was silent. From 2007 to the rest of the logo's run, it uses the closing theme of the show.

Music/Sounds Variant: At the end of the episode "Halloween", a soundbite of Dwight yelling "Quiet, you!" (from a scene earlier in the episode) is heard over this logo.

Availability: Seen only on The Office (U.S. version).

3rd Logo (April 9, 2009-February 24, 2015, April 30, 2020- )


Logo: On a black background with dots of different colors, we see the text "DEEDLE-DEE PRODuctions!" with various patterns in each letter.

Trivia: Like the last logo, this was also drawn by Greg Daniels' son.

Variants:

  • Starting with Upload, the logo is animated and moving with shooting stars in a space background. Plus, the dots are four (instead of thirteen) and the company name is enhanced (including text elements from the previous logo) with the removal of the exclamation point.
  • On A Parks and Recreation Special, the logo is next to the Fremulon and 3 Arts Entertainment logos.

Technique: None, except for what is described in the animated version.

Music/Sounds: The closing theme of the show or silence.

Availability: Seen on Parks and Recreation, Upload and Space Force.
