FlashForward does still have a studio logo at the end. HBO Entertainment doesn't, but then how many production logos should one show get? The "An ABC Studios Production" thing seems new, but the BBC, for example, has included a BBC logo in all its own productions for several years now. That said, the odd programme made for the BBC by ITV Studios will still see the end production logo include the rival network's logo. And if several production companies were involved, then there's a split screen final logo. This can get quite messy when three or more companies are involved! Although if you really want to see messy, check out the average European TV production (I realise it's very unlikely you can see these unless you actually visit Europe. We see few enough non-English language European productions in the UK. I do recommend Spiral or Engrenages as it's known in French if you get the chance). These have seemingly dozens of partners involved, and consequently get very messy. As for the credit squashing - which I loathe - I note that a lot of new season US comedies have final credit sequences now which reduces the opportunity to squash credits.
