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 flying disc in his mouth, with a male voice saying: "Sit, Ubu, sit! Good dog!" This is followed by a bark. The dog was named after Ubu Roi, an 1896 play by Alfred Jarry that is considered the defining classic of the Dada art movement in theater. Ubu died in 1984.
