UBU Productions, Inc.
UBU Productions, Inc., is a production company founded by producer Gary David Goldberg. Its notable productions include Family Ties (1982-1989), Brooklyn Bridge (1991-1993), and Spin City (1996-2002). UBU's "mascot" is Goldberg's dog Ubu Roi, a black labrador retriever. The closing tag for UBU's productions is a photograph of Ubu Roi with a Frisbee in his mouth, with a male voice saying: "Sit, Ubu, sit! Good dog!" This is followed by a bark. Ubu Roi shared a name with Ubu Roi, an 1896 play by Alfred Jarry that is considered the defining classic of the Dada art movement in theater. The dog died in 1984.
