‘Morning Joe’ celebrates 10 years of coffee-hour talk on MSNBC

A consistent logo design

Despite its many scenic changes over the years, the one thing that has remained fairly consistent is the show’s logo design.

The logo includes a slightly chunky serif typeface, with the “o” in “Joe” replaced with what looks like a coffee ring. In addition, the tittle on the “j” looks like a splatter of coffee, an obvious reference to the vernacular use of “joe” referring to coffee. 

The logo has, however, undergone a few minor tweaks — in some versions the tittle above the “j” is left untouched and is a plain circle. The logo also lost some of the “drip marks” around the “o” over the years and sometimes varies slightly when it appears in a single color.

The show’s overall color scheme has also gone through a deep brown and light tan one, undoubtedly inspired by the coffee themed name, to a bolder red palette today.
