Logo joins MTV Networks' roster of popular and highly targeted brands which include MTV, Comedy Central, VH1 and Spike TV.
Why did you choose the name "Logo"?

We chose to name the channel "Logo" because as the first and only 24/7 channel for the LGBT community, we wanted a name that people could make their own and give it personal meaning. For us, the word "Logo" is about identity, about being comfortable in your own skin. It's about being who you are.
How do I get Logo?

Logo is a digital channel, available nationwide to everyone, as long as your satellite or cable operator chooses to provide it. If providers across the country believe that enough of us want Logo they'll be sure to offer it, so tell them that you want Logo! And get your friends and family to do the same. All you have to do is ask.

Why does Logo edit its programming?

Our first priority is to entertain our viewers. Therefore, we do our best to edit our programming as little as possible while still maintaining an appropriate level of content standards for a sponsor-friendly cable channel. Logo's programming is edited to the same degree as other MTV Networks channels geared towards adult audiences, such as Spike TV or Comedy Central.
Why does Logo rerun programming?

It's common practice for cable channels to offer multiple plays of the same programming in order to provide our viewers with several opportunities to see it. We try to limit the number of times we re-air programming as much possible, but keep in mind that like other channels, we simply don't have the resources to play new programming all day long.

We are increasing our movie inventory daily in order to provide our viewers with the best and biggest collection of LGBT films anywhere. There is much more on the way in the coming weeks so please continue to check our website regularly for up-to-date programming information and news.
How can I pitch a show idea to Logo?

Unfortunately, we have been forced to adopt a policy, which we consistently apply, to return all unsolicited submissions without reading them or considering their merit. This policy, which most other companies in the entertainment industry also follow, is essential to avoid misunderstandings that might otherwise arise because of the nature of the industry. So many ideas and concepts are developed by writers and producers that the only prudent way to avoid conflicts regarding possible similarities is to strictly adhere to a policy of not accepting unsolicited submissions.

Our practice is to review only those materials which are submitted through franchised agents. If you currently have, or in the future, secure such an agent, we will be happy to receive your material through the agent.
How can I be cast on a Logo original production?

We are delighted to hear that you enjoy our original programming and want to participate in our shows. We urge all viewers interested in appearing on "RuPaul's Drag Race" and other Logo originals to regularly check our Casting Call page for current postings.
