Background

This is Whoopi Goldberg's vanity card.

1st Logo (September 14, 1992-February 19, 2022)


Logo: We see a black-and-white caricature of Whoopi Goldberg inside a CGI black marble frame. Not much is drawn of her except her head/face, a curved line going downwards from the back of her neck (which is apparently supposed to signify her shoulder) and her hand, which is holding a pair of sunglasses; one of the arms is in Whoopi's mouth. In the bottom left-hand corner of the caricature, we see the artist's signature. In the bottom right-hand corner, we see the company name set in Revue, aligned like this:

ONE HO
PRODUCTIONS, INC.

Very often there is also copyright information chyroned right under it.

Trivia: The Whoopi Goldberg caricature is made by Broadway caricature artist Al Hirschfeld (his signature is on the bottom-left of the picture, even his name is seen in a copyright information), and it belongs to Margo Feiden Galleries Ltd. in New York (the name of the art gallery is also seen in a copyright information).

Variant: From 1992-93 and starting again in 2015, the logo is now in widescreen and in HD, has the text read "ONE HOE", and the words and copyright notice, which is now different and in Revue, slides up.

Technique: None. 2D animation on the 1992-93 and 2015 variant.

Music/Sounds: A 4-note house tune with horns, starting in 1999. Otherwise, the end theme plays over or none. NBC airings use the network's generic music.

Availability: Rare.

  • First seen on her 1992-93 syndicated talk show, The Whoopi Goldberg Show.
  • This can be seen on episodes of Hollywood Squares from 1998-2002, when last seen on GSN and on Strong Medicine. It also appeared on NBC's short-lived sitcom Whoopi and the TV movie Call Me Claus.
  • The logo has been revived on According to Alex and Strut.

2nd Logo (December 3, 2022-)

Logo: A full picture of the caricature from before is shown on a white background. The company name in Times New Roman and a stacked format is placed in the same place on Goldberg's body.

Technique: None.

Music/Sounds: The ending theme of the movie.

Availability: Brand new. It debuted on A New Orleans Noel.
