(x) Fonts on House M.D. title sequence - Century Gothic, various similar {Stephen, Skylar, Richard Hards}

I've been wanting to know this for some time now, but haven't the time to post the screenshots. I am trying to identify both the San Serif of the credits as well as the Serif on the medical diagrams in the background.

At first i thought the San Serif was Futura, but realised it was quite diffrent. Maybe its a variation?

Thanks!

Sans - Maybe Nobel. Really need a larger sample. Could be Futura after all.

Never mind. The J and S are wrong on Nobel.

Ahh, I knew there were some odd shapes in there. Century Gothic.

Century Gothic

Skylar

Edit: Oops! A bit too late...

The narrow S looks more like Century Gothic


than Futura

to me.

EDIT: :-)

The serif may be hand written (the numerals are at least), but here are some in that style:

Excelsior
ITC Century
News 706
