Grundy Television: Difference between revisions

'''Background:''' Grundy Television was formed in 1959 by Reg Grundy as "Grundy Organisation" (a.k.a. "Reg Grundy Organisation", later "Grundy Organization" in late 1979 spelling the name in the U.S. English dictionary). In 1983, he formed the U.S. television production division "Reg Grundy Productions, Inc." and established more companies in other countries. The Grundy companies were sold in 1995 to Pearson, plc. In 2000, Pearson Television was sold to CLT-UFA and merged to become the RTL Group and renamed Pearson Television to FremantleMedia. In 2006, Grundy Television merged with Australian TV production company Crackerjack Productions to form "FremantleMedia Australia". Until 2013, the name Grundy still existed in Germany as "Grundy Light Entertainment" and in Italy as "Grundy Productions Italy".

'''Logo:''' On a black background, a large, elliptical {{Font color|gold|gold}} ring with a {{Font color|peru|bronze}} aura forms in the center of the screen while a white dot that reveals itself to be a comet flies clockwise from the back and circumnavigates it as if circling a globe. As this happens, the top right portion of the ring disappears and a {{Font color|gold|gold}} trail is formed below, making up a stylized “{{Font color|gold|G}}” shape. As the aura fades out, a curved boomerang-style trail is cut through the left side. A small point of light shines briefly on the top right end of the “{{Font color|gold|G}}” upon completion. Throughout this formation, the word “{{Font|Copperplate Gothic|'''GRUNDY'''}}” (in Copperplate Gothic font in white) fades-in below, with the respective company byline a split second later.
