Dom Casual is an American typeface designed in 1951 by Peter Dom. It is an informal font that emulates brush script.

Dom Casual was often seen in 1960s television programs, such as nearly all Warner Bros. cartoons from 1960-1964 and Hanna-Barbera and Filmways Productions end titles, as well as Bewitched end titles. Dom Casual was also used for the credits and logos of the television shows Full House (1987–1995) and Clarissa Explains It All (1991–1994). It has also been used extensively for signage on The Price Is Right and Gadget Boy. The font has also been used on The Chart Show for the names of the artists and song titles as well for the end credits used from 1991-1996. Other uses for the font included Only Fools And Horses, Bullseye for the scores, names and the end credits. Neighbours was also responsible for their use of Dom Casual for the credits. The Tweenies also used the font for its credits. SCCA Pro Racing uses this font on the number boards in the World Challenge series. In business and commerce, The Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company ("A&P") used it in their instore broadsheet signage and in newspaper ads into the mid-1970s.
