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 (and possibly other international airings), there's no American flag background, with everything on a black background. Another French airing has the credits in a diferent font.

FX/SFX: 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.

Editor's Note: None.

2nd Logo (March 24, 2005-February 24, 2015, April 30, 2020- )

Logo: Various childish drawings with the text "DEEDLE-DEE PRODUCtions" have been shown. The letters of each drawing have various designs, such as stripes and polka dots. One drawing is light blue.

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

Variants:

  • On Parks and Recreation, it is replaced by another drawing with a black background with dots of different colors, and "DEEDLE-DEE PRODuctions!" has various patterns in each letter.
  • Starting with Upload, the Parks and Recreation variant is animated and moving with shooting stars in the space background. Plus, the dots are four (instead of thirteen) and the company name is enhanced with the removal of a exclamation point.

FX/SFX: None, except for what is described in the animated version.
