This is Danny Jacobson's vanity card.

(September 23, 1992-May 16, 2001)

Early version
Final version
Final version (Widescreen)

Nicknames: "The Scoreboard", "IN FRONT!"

Logo: On a black background, we see the text:

IN FRONT
PRODUCTIONS

in a font that resembles the text usually seen in scoreboards in stadiums. Both lines are blinking in a very fast speed.

Variants:

An early variant has no space, making the text read "INFRONT".
On original NBC airings of Mad About You, the logo is inside of the split-screen credits. The logo is much smaller (with the background filling the entire frame) with the show's logo and "PRODUCED FOR NBC BY..." above and "IN ASSOCIATION WITH" below.
On the short-lived CBS sitcom Good Advice, the logo is slightly longer.
Conversely, the Mad About You episode "It's a Wrap" noticeably shortens the logo.

FX/SFX: The words blinking very fast. Depending on the refresh rate, this logo can look like a still logo at times.

Music/Sounds: The sound of a racing gate opening, accompanied by a bell ringing and sounds of horses running, followed by a P.A. voice that says "IN FRONT!".

Music/Sounds Variants:

NBC and ABC used a generic theme and voiceover.
On the Good Advice variant and on early episodes of Two Guys and a Girl, a slightly longer version of the horse running sounds is used.
On the "It's a Wrap" variant, the P.A. voice is cut as Paul describes the logos.

Availability: It's seen on Mad About You. It's also seen on the sitcoms Good Advice and Two Guys and a Girl, which was known as Two Guys, a Girl and a Pizza Place in the first two seasons.

Editor's Note: None.
