FanFare Productions

Background
This was the production company of television producer and studio executive, the late Jamie Tarses, who served as the president of ABC from 1996 to 1999, the first woman and one of the youngest people to hold such a post in an American broadcast network. Her brother, Matt Tarses, also owns a production company, Two Soups Productions. Tarses had a stroke in the fall of 2020, spent time in a coma and died in Los Angeles on February 1, 2021, at age 56, from what a family spokesperson called "complications of a cardiac event".

Logo: On a red background with a carpet texture, we see a bordered photo of a castle to the left. Then, a trumpet comes out with a turquoise flag on it, which reads "FANFARE" on it.

Trivia: This logo was created by Chargefield.

Variants:
 * On season 3 of Happy Endings and on Champaign ILL, the logo is next to the Shark vs. Bear logo.
 * On Marry Me, the logo is next to the Exhibit A logo.
 * On The Wilds, the logo is next to the Dylan Clark Productions logo.
 * On The Mayor, the logo is next to the Fee-Fi-Fo Films logo.
 * A still version appears on Champaign ILL and The Wilds.
 * On the short-lived series Mr. Sunshine, the logo itself doesn't appear, but an in-credit version with Barnow & Firek and Shoe Money Productions is used instead.

FX/SFX: The trumpet and the flag popping out. None on Champaign ILL and The Wilds.

Music/Sounds: The sound of a kid mocking a "Ta-da!" and as he says it, a short "Ta-da!" tune is played at the same time. Sometimes, the closing theme is used instead, or none.

Availability: Common. It was seen on shows that were produced by Tarses in her lifetime, with Hawthorne being the first show to use this logo. It also appears on Mad Love, Happy Endings, Franklin & Bash, Men at Work, Made in Jersey, Marry Me, Your Family or Mine, The Mayor, Champaign ILL, and The Wilds. The in-credit version appears on Mr. Sunshine. Due to Tarses' death in February 2021, this logo is retired.

Editor's Note: None.
