Desert Rat Productions

Background
This is David Spade's vanity card.

1st Logo (August 8-15, 2000)
Nicknames: "Desert Rat", "Peace Sign Rat", "Lost Rat"

Logo: In front of a desert background (complete with cacti, mountains, and an animal skull), we see a smiling rat with a tuft of blonde hair wearing cutoff jeans and a sleeveless white T-shirt. He's holding a beverage and giving the peace sign. To the left of him, we see the words:

DESERT RAT

in a stylized font.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Extinct. This was only seen on the ultra short-lived Sammy.

Editor's Note: The logo’s obscurity is eclipsed only by the obscurity of the one show it appeared on. NBC had axed animated programming due to low ratings, leaving the show in flux until it was burned off time after to fulfill broadcasting agreements. Its short time on air as well as its lack of promotion, existing footage and limited information made it one of the more infamous pieces of lost media.

2nd Logo (July 29, 2019-December 13, 2020)
Nicknames: "Desert Rat II", "Falling Rat"

Logo: On a white background with grey outer vignette, we see a cartoon illustration of an unconscious brown rat wearing red boxers, falling, and hitting the ground. A red cup falls out of his hand and rolls beside the rat. To the right of him, the words:

 desert rat 

appear letter by letter in a typewriter font.

FX/SFX: The rat falling, it's cup rolling around on the ground, the appearance of the letters.

Music/Sounds: The sounds of the typewriter typing with a dropping sound or the closing theme.

Availability: Can be seen at the end of Lights Out with David Spade on Comedy Central, as well as The Netflix Afterparty on Netflix.

Editor's Note: None.
