Studio shows on which there was no logo
Craig Karlberg:
While we're talking Fox? I don't think I saw The Chamber logo on its set. Also, ABC's disaster You Don't Know Jack didn't have one on set as I remember it.

Anyway, $ale of the Century, Child's Play, Play the Percentages, Battlestars, Break the Bank '76/'85, Where in the World/In Time is Carmen Sandiego, It's Your Chance of a Lifetime, $1 Million COAL, and Greed are a few other shows that didn't have on-set logos.

BtB85 had a logo on top of the bank IIRC. Greed actually did have a small logo, on one of the cameras of all places.

I think calling it a "disaster" is doing it a disservice. In and of itself, it wasn't bad at all. Reubens was even a capable host. The ratings were dismal, yes, but I blame two things for that: 1) it was painfully clear that ABC wasn't gonna give it a chance unless it pulled Millionaire numbers, and NOTHING was gonna do that at that point, and 2) Jellyvision sat on the concept too long. The concept had been in production a LONG time, and was kinda dated by the time it finally made air. If they'd gotten something on TV a year or two sooner, when the YDKJ phenomenon was still flying high, they would have had a better chance.

Didn't the "Freebie" cards have the logo on them?

Well, I think it would have made it if it were a little more true to the game. I personally liked the show and could stand it as a summer replacement for something. The only thing is that the $2,000,000 shouldn't have been used every show.
