Background

Froben Enterprises Inc. is Robert Klein's vanity card.

1st Logo (December 2, 1995)

Visuals: On a salmon-pink marble background, the following words in a tall white font, similar to the FTSP logo’s font, are shown:

A
FROBEN
ENTERPRISES INC
PRODUCTION

Technique: A combination of CGI for the background and 2D for the text

Audio: The closing theme of the program.

Availability: Seen on It All Started Here on CBS.

2nd Logo (December 2, 2000- June 12, 2010)


Visuals: On a black background, a man in a yellow rain jacket (presumably Robert Klein himself) is seen rowing a boat, as footage of the inside of a colon is shown behind him and the boat. Then, he rows away as the white text "A FROBEN ENTERPRISES, INC. PRODUCTION" in a Comic Sans font appears. The text fades out and the footage of the colon zooms out into a black background.

Technique: A combination of live-action, computer animation and chroma key animation.

Audio: A calm (but somehow unnerving) music box jingle, Followed by a whoosh for when the footage zooms out

Audio Trivia: The jingle is actually an excerpt from the intro of Robert Klein's colonoscopy song which he sang in his 2000 standup special, which explains the footage of the colon in the logo.

Availability: It was first seen on Robert Klein: Child in his 50s, Then later seen on Robert Klein: The Amorous Busboy On Decatur Avenue and Finally appearing on Robert Klein: Unfair and Unbalanced. These can be seen on HBO.

Legacy: The footage of the colon could definitely creep out some viewers who are sensitive to real human organs, not very pleasing to the eye. The music could also scare a few. Overall, the logo is designed to be funny. Especially those who are fans of Robert Klein will find this funny
