...will Fremantle retire Mark Goodson's name as well?

I think that's up to Roger, who will be the EP once Bob retires.

I SERIOUSLY doubt Roger's going to get to vote whether or not to pay homage to a company that has not been running TPIR for many years now.

My prediction : It goes.

Your source for this?

The logo is still there because the staff asked Fremantle for permission to continue using it. Unless a lot more people than just Bob leave after this season, I honestly don't see why they'd get rid of it.

Have they stopped using it on Family Feud? It's been so long since I watched, I can't remember.

Yes, but Family Feud didn't request permission to continue using it.

My hunch is that Fremantle is contractually obligated to use the MGP logo and announcement, otherwise why bother? Barker and the remaining staff have no interest in the MGP logo running so why would they care? The only person who might still care is Jonathan Goodson.

Just my hunch, based on 37 years in the bidness.
