Background

This is the production company of Steven Levitan.

1st Logo (March 4, 1997-January 11, 2006)

Nicknames: "Farther and Son", "The Giggle"

Logo: On a black background, we see a boxed live-action scene of a man and the little boy playing together. The man (believed to be the father) suspends the boy up in the air for about two seconds and brings him down and repeats it once again. Below the video, the text reads Steven Levitan Prods with "in association with" in white text.

Variant: On some shows, "In Association With" is absent.

Trivia: The people in the video in the logo was (probably) Steven Levitan's father and Steven as a baby, and was from an old memory shot on film.

FX/SFX: It's all live-action. This scene certainly looks like its been taken from the '60s-'70s.

Music/Sounds: A 9-note clarinet tune followed by a baby giggling.

Music/Sounds Variants:

• Oliver Beene has a different 5-note clarinet tune ending in a guitar strum, with the same giggling sound.
• On Just Shoot Me!, the closing theme is heard.

Availability: Uncommon. Can be seen on most Steven Levitan-produced shows such as Just Shoot Me, Stark Raving Mad, Oliver Beene, and Stacked.

Editor's Note: None. It's mainly harmless and cute.

2nd Logo (September 26, 2012-April 8, 2020)

Nicknames: "Father and Son II", "The Giggle II", "Reel Version", "Same People, Different Background"

Logo: On a white background, we see the same scene from the last logo, this time on a reel. The words, "Steven Levitan Prods." are next to it.

FX/SFX: Same as the first logo.

Music/Sounds: The sound of a film reel rolling or the end theme of the show.

Availability: Seen on Modern Family (starting with the fourth season) and LA to Vegas.

Editor's Note: None.
