Talk:T.A.T. Communications Company

Disclaimer about anyone wanting to contact Norman Lear for T.A.T.
In the words of MasterFlash, "Please DO NOT contact Norman Lear, Sony Pictures Entertainment, or ACT III Communications telling them to give you the logo for T.A.T. Communications Company. They're going to ignore you." Jordanla (talk) 16:41, 24 March 2022 (UTC)


 * I am putting that there for reference, preservation of advice, and for anyone who are ignorantly desperate for T.A.T. to be found. Jordanla (talk) 16:42, 24 March 2022 (UTC)

Does the first "logo" really count as a logo?
As far as I know, it's only an in-credit text, and it's always different in every show.  Logohub   (talk) 09:03, 7 June 2022 (UTC)


 * Also applies to Norway Corporation though. LMgamer36 (2020, 2022-present).webp (Visit my talk page!) 09:09, 7 June 2022 (UTC)

footage of uncut TAT logo surfacing - is it the real deal or a recreation?
Multiple videos from twitter user RRayova2021 shows multiple VHS recordings of what might be the full TAT logo, I'm doubting if these recordings are real, since his comments read "i made a real TAT logo," "this isn't a remake," "this is a remastered" and "this is the real TAT logo"

I've just asked Ray to share some picture evidence, and I'm still waiting for a response. Does anyone think these recordings are real? (judging by Ray's username, probably not)

 * MADE a real TAT. till you get the pics, assume fakeness. looks fake to me at least. VOLTAGEsq. (talk) 03:01, 24 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Most definitely fake. He refuses to give an actual source other than vague things like "It was a special VHS" or something, and hides any accusations of it being fake. I had asked him on YouTube where the logo came from and he deleted my comment. Not to mention the recreation itself is particularly sloppy, the three stars (apart from the fact that three stars is a pretty unlikely number) are all different sizes, come in at awkward times and land in awkward places on the logo. The real smoking gun, in my opinion, is that the first second of the logo is ripped directly from Pannoni's 10/21/1980 recording, right down to the video artifacts and greenish discoloration on part of the star. The video artifacts he added after the fact on the first Twitter link here are VERY clearly made with NtscQt. All in all, it's incredibly fishy, but not at all worthy of a death threat which he got under one of his community posts, which is ridiculous. Lemirestar (talk) 04:19, 26 June 2023 (UTC)

Could P.I.T.S be a hint to finding TAT?
The PITS Films logo could just be a hint to finding TAT's logo.

I'm thinking about buying a VHS player along with bunches of copies of home recordings of only One Day At A Time and The Jeffersons (along with buying a DVD of Hello Larry and if possible, a CBS Late Night recording of Mary Hartman movie) CharlieFiddlesticks (talk) 14:31, 4 November 2022 (UTC)

What does ELP Communications stand for?
I think "ELP Communications" stands for Embassy Lear Perenchio. (• USER TALK! •) 02:23, 2 January 2023 (UTC)

Is there a recording of the "faint segment" TAT sighting as described on the wiki?
Out of curiosity, is there a recording of the faint burst of the TAT logo that is listed on this article? I can't find any instances of it online. Lemirestar (talk) 03:40, 2 June 2023 (UTC)

I seem to remember a YouTube upload of that at some point. Maybe it got removed later on? Gilby1385 (talk) 13:23, 27 July 2023 (UTC)

Possible chance of finding the T.A.T Communications Company logo
I discovered a channel called "The WKY KTVY KFOR Archives":

 * So what? StudioLerex (talk) 08:33, 7 June 2023 (UTC)
 * 'So what?' So this could be a game-changer, is what! We must've hit a treasure trove, and even if the Holy Grail of logos isn't included, we'll still have plenty of other IDs and whatnot to put up on display! This is HUGE! HaroldMillerHMCL (talk) 00:25, 8 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Sir, we're talking about T.A.T, not the other idents. StudioLerex (talk) 02:26, 8 June 2023 (UTC)
