I really like the brushed black & white font used during the intro to HBO's 24/7 series. Any guesses as to what it might be?

EDIT:

In response to Phil's answer, 'Impact' isn't quite it. Notice the 'C' and 'S' characters, how the Impact curves are squared off, whereas the 24 7 font curves are more rounded:

    In addition, a dedicated font identification service will probably do better than here: new.myfonts.com/WhatTheFont

Looks like Titling Gothic, black.

  • @Jin- Think you nailed it. (Though the 'R' in 'Road' has a straight leg, unlike the 'R' in Pittsburgh and unlike Titling Gothic, so that tag line might be a diff font). Anyway thanks- great font!

I'd say Impact Bold Narrow or at least something just like it. Their version of it next to the specimens I see looks like it's a little lighter in weight, but still in the Bold range, and definitely Narrow.

  • @Phil- It's close, but see the edit to my question above- not quite it.
