PITS Films was a television distribution arm of Tandem Productions, launched in 1978 to distribute most of their material such as Sanford and Son, Maude, and Good Times, all of which were produced by Norman Lear, with the former by Bud Yorkin. On January 6, 1982, it was folded into "Embassy Telecommunications" with the acquisition of Avco Embassy Pictures Corporation by Lear and Jerry Perenchio, both by renaming the distribution division of T.A.T. Communications Co. PITS was an acronym, which stood for "Pie in the Sky".
Nicknames: "PITS Stars", "Cheesy Stars","T.A.T. Communications' Brother"
Logo: Against a blue background reads the text "DISTRIBUTED BY PITS FILMS" with the word "PITS" in 3-D lettering and in green. In the three spaces of the letters, some white stars, one by one, that seem to be growing, and then settle in their spaces. As it fades out, it reads:
FX/SFX: The stars "growing". All Scanimate effects.
Music/Sounds: A synth tune that ascends and descends repeatedly, composed by John Maxwell Anderson.
Availability: Extinct. While not nearly as rare as the T.A.T. logo, it's still quite difficult to spot, as this logo is scrubbed on current prints.
Editor’s Note: This logo is notorious for its rarity, ugly animation, color scheme and synth music. Not to mention, the music is from the same composer who did the infamous T.A.T. Communications Company logo.
