I wonder how long that stopdown actually was.

I was surprised to see the big Viacom 'V' instead of the Fremantle script at the end of the Split Second eps this weekend.

edit: and it pronounced 'Vee-a-com' instead of 'Vy-a-com'

Interesting.  This same mistake was made in the "I Predict" pilot that was posted here previously.

"Vee-a-com" is by all accounts how they originally wanted the name pronounced.  Per Wikipedia's "Notes" on the original company:

--- Quote ---The pronunciation /ˈviːəkɒm/ VEE-ə-kom was used by inaugural chairman Ralph Baruch. The pronunciation /ˈvaɪ.əkɒm/ VY-ə-kom was favored by Sumner Redstone and included in its audible identification marks following its purchase by National Amusements in 1986.

Sale goes back to Fall 1985 with episode 118.
