OK, this bugs me. The DM logo for the new Dennis Miller show resembles some of the '80s DM logos for Depeche Mode. And I HATE Dennis Miller!! How dare he sully the image of a great band in its prime!

I think it is his satirical self who cares nothing for the initials of any other entity other than "himself". So, it is little wonder that he would do such a thing. I don't watch him as a rule so yea, you have my vote on him being a little annoying, but didn't he get you to look at his ad with the logo that looked simiilar? Someone on his ad campaign was thinking of our/your demographic. And they caught you!

I'd be surprised if Miller was thinking if Depeche Mode, or if he even had a hand in the logo design. Free association for me says DM=Depeche Mode, and the logo does look similar.

Remember when Dennis Miller had his talk show on HBO in the mid-90's? His theme musis for that show was "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" by Tears for Fears. Whenever he's win an Emmy for that show, they'd always play a Muzak version of that song on the Emmy telecast.
