Logo: We see a gray couch on a white background. A basset hound is seen lying on the couch. Meanwhile, the word "SOFA" appears letter by letter (in a puffy, almost pillow-like font) The word "ENTERTAINMENT" is seen near the bottom of the couch. The hound then turns around and barks.
Variant: The first Very Best of Ed Sullivan special from 1991 had a black cat stare at the viewer and the O on "SOFA" fly into its usual space. This was soon replaced with the logo described above.
Technique: The company name appearing.
Music/Sounds: Usually the end theme of the show. The version with the dog has a five-note xylophone theme with the first four notes playing one at a time with the appearance of the letters.
Availability: Mostly only seen on their DVD releases; but was seen on VH1 in the late 1990s, when they aired Ed Sullivan's Rock and Roll Classics, a half hour of musical highlights from classic Ed Sullivan episodes. Also seen on PBS and syndicated half-hour edited reruns of The Ed Sullivan Show.
