Background
Satin City is a production company founded in 1991 by Linwood Boomer. It is best-known for producing Malcolm in the Middle as well as the failed American adaptation of Red Dwarf.
1st Logo (1992)
Logo: An in-credit logo. Simply the words, "SATIN CITY, INC." in a plain, yellow font on a space background.
FX/SFX: None, it's in-credit.
Music/Sounds: The ending theme of the show.
Availability: Extinct. Only seen on the unaired pilot of Red Dwarf USA.
Editor's Note: None.
2nd Logo (January 9, 2000-May 14, 2006)
Nicknames: "The Tubes", "Satin Skyscrapers"
Logo: On a teal gradient background, the word "Satin", in light blue script, is drawn in, flashing several times and appearing very out-of-focus. "CITY", in white, appears below letter-by-letter, and also flashes and re-draws several times. In the background, some teal "tubes" (intended to be buildings) with purple tips are drawn in.
Trivia: This logo was created 3 months after the original record date of the Malcolm in the Middle pilot.
Variant: A warp-speed version of the logo exists on certain season 1 episodes of Malcolm in the Middle.
FX/SFX: The text appearing and tubes being drawn in.
Music/Sounds: 2 bass notes, then a single electric piano note rising in pitch. On the pilot episode it was completely silent (sans the Netflix prints), although we can hear a bang at the beginning, which came from the end of the show.
Music/Sounds Variant: The warp speed variant has a strange-sounding synth chord playing instead, which actually came from one of the show's music cues.
Availability: Uncommon. Can be seen on every episode of Malcolm in the Middle.
Editor's Note: A popular logo among Malcolm in the Middle fans, though first-time watchers may be confused about the weirdness of this logo (the out-of-focus letters and the tubes).
