Background

This was the production company of game show host Wink Martindale and Bill Hillier.

1st Logo (1992)

Logo: On a blue gradient background, we see the names "Martindale" and "Hillier" (in silvery text) slide in from opposite sides and "Productions" (also in silvery text) flip in below, with the final product looking somewhat like this :

Martindale
Hillier
Productions

Then, the logo shines.

FX/SFX: The text appearing and shining.

Music/Sounds: The closing theme of the show.

Availability: Only seen on the 1992 TV series Why Didn't I Think of That?.

2nd Logo (1993-1994)

Logo: On a black background, we see the text "A PRODUCTION OF". Then the text disappears to make room for the text spinning around "MARTINDALE-HILLIER ENTERTAINMENT" spinning around in a circular motion, along with two letters " M" and "H" in a stretched form, moving around. The logo shines and the circle stops spinning.

Variants:

On the UK version of Trivial Pursuit, the logo is in-credit.
On later episodes, the logo is on a blue gradient background.

FX/SFX: The letters sliding and moving.

Music/Sounds: The end theme of the show.

Availability: Seen on the US and UK versions of Trivial Pursuit.

3rd Logo (1994-1995)

Logo: On a blue gradient background, we see the text "A PRODUCTION OF". The text later disappears as two connected letters "M" and "H" flip in, and the circular text "MARTINDALE-HILLIER ENTERTAINMENT" zooms out. The logo then shines.

Variant: On the UK version of Trivial Pursuit, the logo is in-credit.

FX/SFX: The flipping and zooming.

Music/Sounds: The end theme of the show.

Availability: Seen on the three Family Channel interactive game versions of Boggle, Jumble and Shuffle, as well as later episodes of the UK version of Trivial Pursuit.
