It works here.

    $ script -f -c 'seq 3' mylogfile.log
    Script started, file is mylogfile.log
    1
    2
    3
    Script done, file is mylogfile.log
    $ od -c mylogfile.log | fgrep '\r'
    0000140       L   I   N   E   S   =   "   4   0   "   ]  \n   1  \r  \n
    0000160   2  \r  \n   3  \r  \n  \n   S   c   r   i   p   t       d   o
    $ sed -i 's/\r$//' mylogfile.log
    $ od -c mylogfile.log | fgrep '\r'
    $

Does that od(1) pipeline show any carriage returns in mylogfile.log for
you after you have run the sed command?  What you call `^M', od shows as
`\r'.
