Hanna-Barbera Home Video: Difference between revisions

<u>Logo:</u> On a {{Font color|blueviolet|blue-violet}} background wallpapered with the “Hanna-Barbera” script logo, a picture of Huckleberry Hound, Yogi Bear, Fred Flintstone, and Scooby-Doo, all standing together with big, goofy grins, “flips” up and moves towards the screen. When it is in position, there is a large, cheesy-looking flash, then the “{{Font color|red|Hanna-Barbera}}” script logo, in {{Font color|red|red}} and treated pretty badly, is “wiped” in from both sides with a cheesy-looking “sparkly trail” effect. Then, after that forms, the "Swirling Star" (1979-86 version) animates, as per usual, below the script logo. A long, elongated rounded rectangle with the words “HOME VIDEO” on each side, flips up so that the words flank the "Swirling Star".

<u>Music/Sounds:</u> A synth-piano tune that builds up into a rendition of the first few bars of the ''Flintstones'' theme. Actually quite addictive and memorable.

<u>Availability:</u> Rare. H-B Home Video did release a morass of product (almost 200 titles), but most (if not all) are pretty hard to find these days. Most of the titles are in slipcovers released after 1989; the very first titles to use this logo on the packaging (usually orange clamshell cases with a Worldvision byline) do not have this logo, but rather the original "Swirling Star" logo, or in some cases, no logo at all. It turned up strangely on a Christmas Day 2011 airing of ''Yogi's First Christmas'' on Australian television networks, plastering the Operation Prime Time logo. This was due to the fact that said networks used the LaserDisc release of the special as a source. Don't expect this on ''Flintstones Anniversary Collection'' tapes, as they have a special ''Flintstones'' anniversary logo in this logo's place. It also appeared on the Warner Home Video TV Premiere DVD release of ''The Jetsons: Microchip Chump'' due to using the 1990 VHS master.
