''' | '''Audio/Voice-over:''' Usually the closing theme from whatever show that was using it, along with an announcer who says the program name and the company name. | ||
'''Availability:''' Most shows only used a simple in-credit notice; the asterisk was featured on some shows such as ''The Price Is Right'', ''Match Game'', ''What's My Line?'', ''Tattletales'', the 1973-78 edition of ''Concentration'', the 1979-80 version of ''Beat the Clock'', ''That's My Line!'', and the original 1980-1982 run of ''Blockbusters''. | '''Availability:''' Most shows only used a simple in-credit notice; the asterisk was featured on some shows such as ''The Price Is Right'', ''Match Game'', ''What's My Line?'', ''Tattletales'', the 1973-78 edition of ''Concentration'', the 1979-80 version of ''Beat the Clock'', ''That's My Line!'', and the original 1980-1982 run of ''Blockbusters''. | ||

''' | '''Audio/Voice-over:''' The end theme of the show's accompanied by an announcer who says: "This is [NAME] speaking for [SHOW], a Mark Goodson Television Production," although when Charlie O'Donnell announced on one week of shows on ''Trivia Trap'', instead of him announcing his name he just says "This is ''Trivia Trap''!" before he says the usual "A Mark Goodson Television Production!" line. On ''Illinois Instant Riches'', Bill Barber (the announcer) said "This is Bill Barber speaking for ''Illinois Instant Riches'', a Mark Goodson Television Lottery Production". The "Television" text is added to keep the length/rhythm of the phrase just like the original. In 1998, during the revival of ''Match Game'', this became "This has been a Mark Goodson Production for...", after which the Pearson logo would appear. There was no announcement when the logo appeared on 1999-2002 episodes of ''Family Feud'' and ''To Tell the Truth'' (however, the cruddy 2001 revival of ''Card Sharks'' with Pat Bullard did have an announcement from Gary Kroeger), but the original spiel continued to be used on ''The Price Is Right'' until June 2007; currently, "FremantleMedia" takes the place of "Mark Goodson Television" in the "Production" phrase on that series. | ||
'''Voice-over Variant:''' For some shows in the mid-to late-1980s and 1990s taped at CBS Television City and aired on CBS like ''Family Feud'' with Ray Combs and the 1989 short-lived revival of ''Now You See It'', the announcers would say: "From Television City in Hollywood" first before they would say their name speaking for what game show. | '''Voice-over Variant:''' For some shows in the mid-to late-1980s and 1990s taped at CBS Television City and aired on CBS like ''Family Feud'' with Ray Combs and the 1989 short-lived revival of ''Now You See It'', the announcers would say: "From Television City in Hollywood" first before they would say their name speaking for what game show. | ||
