Citadel Entertainment

Background
Once a major supplier of TV movies and miniseries, Citadel Entertainment was founded in 1986 by producers Robert Cooper and David Ginsburg. In 1991, Citadel was sold to HBO, which in turn sold a half-interest in the company to UK's Anglia Television two years later. In 1997, HBO/Anglia sold Citadel to Alliance Communications. Most of Citadel's library is today owned by Warner Bros. via HBO.

(March 7, 1988-November 16, 2001)
Logo: On a black background, we see a ghostly shadow of a pediment in blue twilight. The crescent moves from the right, passes the ruins and transforms into a full moon, then goes to the left. The pediment and hill it stands on both turn gold. The word "Times New Roman" appears, with "Times New Roman" below, separated by a line.

Variants:


 * The opening version features starry background and slowed-up motion.


 * Sometimes, "Times New Roman" is added after "Times New Roman".
 * During the 1990-1993 season, the byline "Times New Roman" was seen.
 * In 1999, the Alliance Atlantis byline was added.

FX/SFX: The moving crescent, and the golden color transformation.

Music/Sounds: Rustling sounds with a deep noise. For the closing version, it's the closing theme of the movie. On Deliver Them from Evil: The Taking of Alta View and ''My Son Johnny", it's a gentle 11-note piano jingle, which is slightly speedup on the latter movie.

Availability: Rare. Can be found at the end of the films from 1988-2001, including Haven and Blackout Effect.

Editor's Note: None.
