Background
Roundelay was the vanity card of Knots Landing creator David Jacobs. In 1985, Michael Filerman joined up and the company became Roundelay-MF Productions.
(November 20, 1980-May 13, 1993, May 7-9, 1997)
Nicknames: "Semicircular Neon Sign", "Roundelay (MF) Sign"
Logo: Simply the word "Roundelay" in a blue semicircle, with the text "A ROUNDELAY PRODUCTION IN ASSOCIATION WITH" under it. When Filerman joined in 1985, a yellow-green "MF" was added to the logo, centered under the semicircle; and the text below was amended to read "A ROUNDELAY-MF PRODUCTION IN ASSOCIATION WITH”, and this is usually followed by either a then-current Lorimar logo, a Lorimar-Telepictures logo, or a WBTV logo.
FX/SFX: None.
Music/Sounds: The closing theme of Knots Landing or a generic CBS theme used on the 1997 miniseries.
Availability: Both logos (Roundelay and Roundelay-MF) appear on Knots Landing, as well as the 1997 Knots Landing miniseries. The "Roundelay" variant appears on the TV movie Dallas: The Early Years.
Editor's Note: None.
