Personally I thing the design work itself is OK, and the typeface isn't any worse than the one on the original logo. It will be interesting to see how the logo works in supporting print work and on screen, if proud creative are doing it then the brand is in good hands.

I will wait and see how the new one develops across application though.

But the thinking behind it certainly seems off to me. As I said in the article I’m not judging the design of it at all until I’ve seen the rest. But the thinking behind it certainly seems off to me.

I have seen some of it and it is really very good." Which is a very good point. Hopefully the rest of the stuff is better than the name change and supporting logotype.

And not sure who's entirely responsible, Landor are credited with the naming itself according to Brand New, but no word on who did the actual design itself, they theorised that might have been done internally at Sci Fi/Syfy. Every other article I can find merely says the brand was developed jointly between Sci Fi and Landor. Cripes didn’t think this would end up here, ta all.
