Kayro Productions
Background
Kayro Productions was ran by Joe Connelly and Bob Mosher.
Logo (1961-1964?)
_H.jpg)
Visuals: Essentially, it consists of the text "Kayro" above "Productions". Both are in a typewriter font, but the "K" is massively oversized compared to the rest of the text. The logo is often paired with the Revue Studios logo.
Technique: 2D cel animation or still printed image.
Audio: Either the closing theme of the show or the Revue theme.
Availability: Can be found on most Revue produced shows. A standalone version was seen on Calvin and the Colonel.
Kayro-Vue Productions
Background
Kayro-Vue Productions was formed in 1964 as a joint venture between Kayro Productions and Revue Studios.
Logo (September 24, 1964-May 12, 1966)
Visuals: Over a cloudy gray background, the logo starts with the text:
kayro-Vue
production
in a typewriter-like font. Then it fades to the Universal "Zooming Globe" logo without the MCA byline.
Technique: A cel graphic.
Audio: The 1960 short Revue Studios and 1965 Universal Television fanfares respectively.
Availability: Last seen on all episodes of The Munsters on WGN America and also on the short-lived show Karen.
Final Note: After Revue Studios was reincorporated as Universal Television in 1962, the name "Revue" was kept as an in-name-only unit for the two short-lived series The Munsters and Karen. In 1966, Revue became UTV.
