imported>Ohbother →(July 29, 1983-May 24, 2002): I edited the ending date of this logo to 1990 since I couldn't find any proof of this logo being used after the show's "guy tied to a pole" era. I also took out Later with Bob Costas as every episode I watched had only an NBC logo at the end. If you can find proof of this logo being used outside of pre-1990 FNV, you may share it on this page. |

Background
No Sleep Productions was a production company started by NBC executive Dick Ebersol.
Logo (July 29, 1983-1989)
Visuals: Over a black background, there is the stacked yellow text "This Has Been A NO SLEEP PRODUCTIONS, LTD. Presentation". Between "LTD." and "Presentation", there is an eye, which blinks twice. This fades to a copyright notice afterwards.
Variant: On Later with Bob Costas, a different font was used. Also, instead of fading into a copyright screen, it fades into the NBC Productions logo.
Technique: 2D animation by Cucumber Studios in London, which also animated the graphics used by Friday Night Videos from its inception to its rebranding in the early 90s.
Audio: The ending theme of the show.
Availability: Seen on pre-1989 episodes of Friday Night Videos and Later with Bob Costas.
