Doozer Productions, Inc. is the production company of Bill Lawrence, best known for making Scrubs. The company's name is taken from a variant of Lawrence's middle name, Van Duzer. Their logo is depicted as a hand writing the company name, along with a boy wearing sunglasses for the double O's. The dialogue in the logo was provided by Lawrence's daughter, Charlotte. They currently are under contract with Warner Bros. Television. Jeff Ingold, former head of comedy at NBC, serves as president. Randall Winston is the final head of the triumvirate, acting as a main producer on all Doozer series. Liza Katzer was promoted by Lawrence to the role of VP of development.
It was originally based at Touchstone Television, then it was shifted to NBC Studios in 2000 in order to develop their own comedy Scrubs, which came from a previous Touchstone pact, and it was reupped in 2003. After six years working at the studio, he moved back to ABC Studios in 2007, for a new overall deal, allowing projects to be developed on the air for the ABC network. After only four years working at ABC, he was moved to Warner Bros. Television, where they are working at the company ever since then, developing their own projects working for the studio.
