Background
MGM Television was established on June 30, 1956 by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer under Loews, Inc. It was initiated to have MGM to distribute 770 of its films, 900 shorts, produce network series, and acquire TV stations after its first program, The M-G-M Parade, was canceled by ABC in the spring. The M-G-M Parade first used the 1953 version of Jackie at the beginning rather than the end of the program. Most of the pre-1986 library is owned by Warner Bros. Entertainment through Turner Entertainment Co., while MGM Holdings Inc. owns the rest of the library.
1st Logo (September 20, 1957-October 2, 1960)
Visuals: On a dark (or gray) background, we see a brown (or drawn) statue of the MGM logo, as seen on movies from 1924-1983, sitting on a pedestal. There is text seen over the statue saying "AN MGM-TV PRODUCTION" (or "AN MGM-TV PRESENTATION"). The name of the executive producer is seen below.
Variants:
- On The Islanders, the text "MGM-TV" zooms in from the center.
- On Northwest Passage, the 1953 version of Jackie in the standard MGM film logo appears at the beginning with a voice-over saying "From the MGM Studios in Hollywood..."
Technique: None.
Audio: The closing theme of the show.
Audio Variant: On The Islanders, a voice-over says "A MGM television production".
Availability: This appeared only on three series: Northwest Passage, The Islanders, and The Thin Man. This logo was retained on recent airings of the latter on GetTV.
2nd Logo (September 18, 1960-1973)
Visuals: We see Leo the Lion (from the 1957 movie logo) inside a black circle border, which reads "METRO-GOLDWYN-MAYER TELEVISION". The lion roars once. The background either has wallpapered images of a lion's face or a live action background.
Trivia: The same image was used as the print logo of MGM Records until 1966. Like the film logo, the original footage of Leo without the border is currently lost due to the vault fire.
Variants: These are the main color/B&W variations of this logo:
- 1960-1962: Live-action backing. On National Velvet, the logo is placed on the background of the credits. Then the logo disappears in an iris-out effect, while the show's title (in quote marks) appears in an iris-in effect.
- September 19, 1961-May 15, 1962: On Cain's Hundred, the logo is placed on the background used from the show's credits. Another version has Leo's face off-center. The same effect is used for the first season of Dr. Kildare, with Blair General Hospital in the background, as well as season 2 of National Velvet.
- 1962-May 16, 1966: Gray wallpaper backing (on black & white shows).
- 1965-1973: Red wallpaper backing.
- 1965?-1973?: Brown wallpaper backing.
- On color variants of the logo, the footage of Leo is zoomed out further than usual, revealing more of his body. His tail is also visible.
- The way Leo roars varies. On the very first versions of the logo, he roars twice like in the movie logo. The standard version is just his first roar, while Dr. Seuss' How The Grinch Stole Christmas uses his second roar.
Technique: Live action.
Audio:
- 1960-1961: A three-note drum sound followed by a dramatic fanfare played by a trumpet, synced to the animation of the lion roaring: the audio of the roar is replaced by a loud vibration of a muted trumpet as part of the fanfare. On National Velvet, this is followed by a three-note loud trumpet theme when the show's title is wiped on-screen.
- 1961-1973: Leo's 1957 roar track.
- The ending music to the show plays throughout on some series; on others, there is silence while Leo is roaring.
Audio Variant: On a re-run of The Asphalt Jungle, a voice-over said: "The Asphalt Jungle, A Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Television Production".
Availability:
- It appeared on Dr. Kildare, The Travels of Jamie McPheeters, The Man from U.N.C.L.E., The Courtship of Eddie's Father, Please Don't Eat the Daisies, and Medical Center, among others.
- It survives on the Dr. Seuss cartoon specials How the Grinch Stole Christmas! (plastered by the Warner Bros. Pictures logo on NBC broadcasts) and Horton Hears a Who!, and was also seen on reruns of The Tom and Jerry Show on Boomerang during the 2000s. It is also preserved on TBS airings and the MGM/UA Home Video release of the former special.
- This was last used on the short-lived series Assignment: Vienna.
- Also seen at the end of some Films Incorporated movies, like Wolves and The Wolf Men, Wildfire!, and Hollywood: The Dream Factory. Also seen on the unsold pilots Dream Wife, Meet Me in St. Louis, and possibly Take Me To Your Leader.
- Most MGM TV series from this era are now owned by Warner Bros. Television (via parent company Warner Bros. Discovery's acquisition of Turner Entertainment Co. in 1996), so many current prints of these shows have the 1987 Turner Entertainment "Globe" and the Warner Bros. Television "Shield" logos, following the MGM Television logo, while series not owned by Warner Bros. Discovery (such as the original Flipper) may have it replaced with the 2001 or MGM Domestic Television Distribution logos.
- This logo was last seen on The Man From U.N.C.L.E. on Heroes & Icons, which the network stopped airing in August 2017.
Legacy: A visually distinct logo from other MGM logos of the time, this is a favorite of many.
3rd Logo (The Pogo Special Birthday Special custom variant) (May 18, 1969)
-
Top of cylinder
Visuals: Over a black background, we see the 1966 MGM stylized lion print logo, which has some shiny marks inside of it. It then flips over, revealing it is on top of a crystallized cylinder, to reveal the large, blocky text "MgM", with "TELEVISION" in smaller writing underneath it, and the stylized lion inside the "g" of "MgM" (which is "cut out" in the middle of the two "M"s).
Technique: Stop-motion model work.
Audio: Tanner's first roar.
Availability:
- It was only seen on original NBC airings and film prints of The Pogo Special Birthday Special.
- However, it was removed from future prints and was not seen on home video releases.
Legacy: This logo was lost media for years and very sought after, enough so that it was written off as a myth by some. However, it finally resurfaced in 2023 when Twitter user Marc Acrylic uncovered the logo. A common nickname for the logo was "The Cold-Cream Jar", due to the cylinder's thickness.
4th Logo (October 9, 1973-1991)
-
1973 variant
-
1979 variant
-
1983 variant
-

Variants:
- 1973-1982: A short version of the movie logo of the era.
- 1979-1983: The word "TELEVISION" appears during this era. It's almost similar to the MGM theatrical cartoon logo.

Technique: Live-action.
Audio: The lion's roar.
Audio Variants:
- On the '70s reruns of Northwest Passage, it used the 1957 first two lion roars. On the 2nd lion roar, there is a male announcer's voice-over that says "From the MGM Studios in Hollywood".
- On the TV movie The Fifth Missile, it used an abridged version of the 1982 lion roar.
- On a few Hungarian TV prints of Daktari, the 1979 logo featured various roars from the 2nd logo, due to sloppy plastering.
- On the short-lived shows Meatballs & Spaghetti and Pandamonium, the closing theme is heard, but there is no roar track.
- On The Tom and Jerry Comedy Show, there is a slightly different roar track heard alongside the closing theme.
Availability:
- The earlier variant was seen intact on Shaft: The Series, Logan's Run, and earlier episodes of CHiPs. This version also plastered over the previous logo on a reissue print of the Dr. Seuss cartoon special Horton Hears a Who!, as featured on home video and Cartoon Network.
- When VH1 did a Fame marathon in 2001, all MGM logos were retained.
- The MGM/UA Entertainment Co. Television version is retained on Hello Kitty's Furry Tale Theater on Amazon Video on Demand, Hulu and VHS releases, The Dirty Dozen: Next Mission on VHS (and on DVD/Blu-ray, as a special feature on the Warner Bros. Home Entertainment DVD/Blu-ray release of the original Dirty Dozen film), and seasons 3 and 5 of Fame last seen on nuvoTV (now Fuse).
- Currently seen on specific DVD releases such as CHiPs and The Man from U.N.C.L.E.

- It was also seen on Encore Drama airings of the 1982 TV movie Cry for the Strangers.
5th Logo (The Montefuscos custom variant) (September 4-October 23, 1975)
Visuals: Just a scrolling in-credit variant with the then-current MGM print logo (the "modernized Leo") in yellow, the name "MGM" in an Optima Medium font below said logo, and "TELEVISION" in Melior italic font directly below that.
Technique: None.
Audio: The closing theme, with the audience applauding (most likely canned) as the theme plays.
Availability:
- It was seen only on the closing credits of the NBC sitcom The Montefuscos, which was one of the first casualties of the 1975-76 TV season.
- Although there is one existing episode on YouTube, posted by former child actor Rob Arbitelle (who appeared in the show as one of the grandchildren), it is currently unknown whether or not the remaining videotapes of The Montefuscos still survive (in which case the show would lie with Warner Bros. Television/Turner Entertainment Co.), or if NBC "wiped" (erased) said tapes of the program to use for other shows.
6th Logo (1982-June 15, 1984)
Visuals: A still picture of MGM/UA's then-corporate logo. Below "Entertainment Co.", which is separated from the MGM/UA text by two lines, is "Television Distribution": it's in the same font and uses the same style as the "Entertainment Co." text, and it's spaced below the aforementioned text.
Variant: Sometimes, "FROM" can be seen above the logo.
Technique: None.
Audio: A re-arranged version of the 1982 United Artists Television theme, followed by the 1957 roar. Otherwise, it has the show's closing music or it's silent.
Availability:
