Background

Hanley Productions is an independent production company formed by Michael J. Weithorn.

1st Logo (October 30, 1987-January 27, 1997)


Logo: On a gray background, we see a man who looks somewhat like Howard Stern walk onto the screen as he says "Good night!", making the text "HANLEY PRODUCTIONS" zoom toward him and almost hits him, prompting him to say "Whoa!". His dog then runs onto the screen as "In Association With" appears below. The man says "Good night!" once again.

Variants:

  • On rare occasions, the "IAW" text doesn't appear below the logo.
  • The font of the "IAW" text can vary (depending on the show), and also whether the text is italicized or not.

FX/SFX: Hand-drawn animation.

Music/Sounds: The aforementioned voice clips, along with corresponding sound effects.

Availability: Rare. Seen on the season 1 DVD of Ned & Stacey. It was also seen on the 1987-1988 sitcom Pursuit of Happiness and the 1990-1992 sitcom True Colors.

2nd Logo (September 21, 1998-May 14, 2007, March 31-May 5, 2015)


Logo: On a white background, we see a cartoon Mr. Hanley waving his hand, who says "Good night!". Then, the huge shiny metal word "HANLEY" (with a cross-shaped bevel and some tiny screws attached on parts of the letters) zooms up and overtakes the screen, knocking him into the screen and then sliding out of view. The word "PRODUCTIONS" appears below in the same style as it shines.

Variants:

  • A sped-up version exists on Weird Loners.
  • The "instant text" variant doesn't have Mr. Hanley saying "Good night!". Instead, it cuts straight to the text zooming up. The animation is also slightly slower.

FX/SFX: The zooming of the text, Mr. Hanley being knocked into the screen and sliding out, and the shining of the logo.

Music/Sounds: Just Mr. Hanley's dialogue, followed by a bang and metal crashing sounds. On The King of Queens, the closing theme of the show is used instead, although the dialogue plays over it in the first few episodes. Weird Loners had the audio very sped up. CBS airings used its generic theme.

Availability: Seen on The King of Queens and Weird Loners.
