Background
Roundelay was the vanity card of Dallas and Knots Landing creator David Jacobs. In 1985, Michael Filerman joined up and the company became Roundelay-MF Productions.
Logo (November 20, 1980-May 9, 1997)
Visuals: Essentially just the word "Roundelay" in a blue semicircle, with the text "A ROUNDELAY PRODUCTION IN ASSOCIATION WITH" under it, on a black background.
Later Variant: When Filerman joined in 1985, a yellow-green "MF" was added to the logo, centered under the semicircle and the text below was changed to "A ROUNDELAY-MF PRODUCTION IN ASSOCIATION WITH".
Technique: A still graphic.
Audio: The closing theme of the show or a generic CBS theme used on the 1997 miniseries.
Availability: Both logos (Roundelay and Roundelay-MF) are seen on Knots Landing, as well as the 1997 Knots Landing miniseries. The "Roundelay" variant is also seen on the TV movie Dallas: The Early Years.
