imported>Ohbother (→Background: I edited this page since I learned Blair is actually a successor of Rhodes Production. I also changed the starting year to 1983 since that was the year Blair bought Rhodes, and also due to the fact I couldn't find any evidence of this logo being used before that year.) |

'''Logo:''' The word "{{Font color|gold|'''BLAIR'''}}", in {{Font color|gold|gold}}, flies to the top of the screen with 3D trail effects (usually over the closing scene of the show, other than that, it's a black background). Under that, a {{Font color|#FFD900|yellow}} light writes out a {{Font color|red|red}}, cursive "{{Font color|red|{{Font|Times New Roman|'''''Entertainment'''''}}}}". A pair of lines is drawn both above and below the logo, and a stylized logo of some sort appears in the middle of the bottom pair. It is a white box with "'''JB'''", the initials of John Blair, created by {{Font color|limegreen|green}}, {{Font color|red|red}}, and {{Font color|dodgerblue|blue}} boxes and lines. When the logo's completed, the background turns a shaded {{Font color|blue|blue}}. | '''Logo:''' The word "{{Font color|gold|'''BLAIR'''}}", in {{Font color|gold|gold}}, flies to the top of the screen with 3D trail effects (usually over the closing scene of the show, other than that, it's a black background).

'''Availability:''' Rare. It appeared on some TV shows from the '80s, such as ''Divorce Court'', ''Break the Bank'' (1985-86 revival), ''Strike it Rich'' and 80s syndicated prints of ''The Cisco Kid'' (these same prints were also used on the final season of ''SCTV'' as part of the Happy Hour segments hosted by Happy Marsden, played by cast member John Hemphill).The sped-up version can be found on the short-lived 1990 series ''Dracula'', which is on DVD. Also appears on the Celebrity's Just for Kids prints of the two ''Lollipop Dragon'' TV specials. Was also seen on early '80s repackaged prints of ''SCTV'' in syndication, Nick at Nite, and Comedy Central, although the Rhodes Productions logo would be seen on certain 1977-81 episodes, due to them having the original end credits. Can currently be seen on Amazon Prime's prints of ''Strike it Rich'' as part of Buzzr's channel there (the Fremantle logo appears after it). | '''Availability:''' Rare.
