Background
Satin City is a production company founded in 1991 by Linwood Boomer. It is best-known for producing Malcolm in the Middle as well as the failed American adaptation of Red Dwarf.
1st Logo (1992)
Logo: An in-credit logo. Simply the words, "SATIN CITY, INC." in a plain, yellow font on a space background.
FX/SFX: None, it's in-credit.
Music/Sounds: The ending theme of the show.
Availability: Extinct. Only seen on the unaired pilot of Red Dwarf USA.
Editor's Note: None.
2nd Logo (January 9, 2000-May 14, 2006)
Nicknames: "The Tubes", "Satin Skyscrapers"
Logo: On a teal gradient background, the word "Satin", in light blue script, is drawn in, flashing several times and appearing very out-of-focus. "CITY", in white, appears below letter-by-letter, and also flashes and re-draws several times. In the background, some teal "tubes" (intended to be buildings) with purple tips are drawn in.
Trivia: This logo was created 3 months after the original record date of the Malcolm in the Middle pilot.
Variant: A warp-speed version of the logo exists.
FX/SFX: The text appearing and tubes being drawn in.
Music/Sounds: 2 bass notes, then a single electric piano note rising in pitch. On the pilot episode it was completely silent (sans the Netflix prints), although we can hear a bang at the beginning, which came from the end of the show.
Music/Sounds Variant: Some season 1 episodes of Malcolm in the Middle have an strange-sounding synth chord playing over the logo (muting the basso and electric piano), which actually came from one of the show's music cues. It can be heard on the following link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oIBSYZlDvM8
Availability: Uncommon.
- It first appeared on the pilot episode of Malcolm in the Middle, and appeared on every episode of the aforementioned show afterwards.
Editor's Note: A popular logo among Malcolm in the Middle fans, though first-time watchers may be confused about the weirdness of this logo (the out-of-focus letters and the tubes).
