1st Logo
(1987)
Logo: Superimposed on the end credits, the white words "Eddie Murphy Television Enterprises, Inc." quickly eases out to the middle of the screen, then they
shine red.
FX/SFX: The ease-out of the words, the red shining.
Music/Sounds: The closing theme to the program.
Availability: Rare. Seen on Uptown Comedy Express on VHS from HBO Video.
Editor's Note: None.
2nd Logo
(1989?-1992)
Logo: Against a beige background, we see Eddie Murphy as a pink comedy mask at the left of the screen, laughing with his arms akimbo. A salmon-colored rectangle drops down from the top right side, and the text:
kind of looking like what you see above, and with a small television in between, slides up. "TELEVISION" glows brightly.
FX/SFX: The animations of Eddie, the rectangle, the text, and "TELEVISION" glowing.
Music/Sounds: Eddie Murphy's trademark laugh (which he no longer uses), though the logo is silent on some shows.
Availability: Uncommon. It's seen on SNL: The Best of Eddie Murphy, What's Alan Watching? and The Royal Family. The silent version was seen on The Kid Who Loved Christmas. This was also seen on the unsold pilot for a TV adaptation of Coming to America, which aired as part of CBS Summer Playhouse in 1989.
Editor's Note: None.
