<u>Logo:</u> Just a scrolling in-credit variant with the then-current MGM print logo (the "modernized Leo") in white and the words "MGM TELEVISION" in white Optima medium font directly below it. | |||
<u>FX/SFX</u>: None. | |||
<u>Music/Sounds:</u> Just the closing theme of ''The Montefuscos'', with the audience applauding (possibly canned) as the theme plays. | |||
<u>Availability</u>: Extinct. Was seen only on the closing credits of the very short-lived NBC sitcom ''The Montefuscos'', which was one of the first casualties of the 1975-76 TV season. It is currently unknown whether or not the videotapes still survive (in which case the show would lie with Warner Bros. Television/Turner Entertainment Co.), or if NBC "wiped" (erased) said tapes to use for other shows. | |||
