*The ''Texas Wheelers'' finale variation is beyond rare, possibly mythical, and had also fallen into extinction since it was only seen on ABC. Paley has an episode described as "the last aired" but the tape cuts out before a logo can be seen. The credits are typical of the series, putting any further variants to be seen on ''Wheelers'' in doubt. | *The ''Texas Wheelers'' finale variation is beyond rare, possibly mythical, and had also fallen into extinction since it was only seen on ABC.

*There are some examples of plastering still out there; notably, ''Hill Street Blues'' reruns on Heroes and Icons have many episodes ending in only 20th Television. A select number of ''St. Elsewhere'' episodes on Hulu end with 20th Century Fox Television only (one example even features the MTM soundtrack being kept at the end of the theme, despite plastering the logo). Some reruns of ''White Shadow'' are 20th only, though the MTM variant survives too. | *There are some examples of plastering still out there; notably, ''Hill Street Blues'' and ''The Pretender'' reruns on Heroes and Icons have many episodes ending in only 20th Television.

However, the ''St. Elsewhere'' series finale logo is rather infamous for its depressing nature; the ''Texas Wheelers'' variant may be the same way if it exists or is discovered. | ||
