Logo: We see four red-bordered screens of clips from old movies playing (one of the movies being the original 1933 version of ''King Kong'' and another one is from the 1937 Laurel and Hardy film, ''Way Out West''). In the center, a red-bordered blue square, consisting of a silhouette of a boy sitting on top of a hill and holding a stick horse (his dog is sitting behind him) against a cloudy sky on a blue background with the Nostalgia Merchant logo at the top (with a light blue rectangle) and "presents" below, begins to zoom in, filling the entire screen. | Logo: We see four red-bordered screens of clips from old movies playing (one of the movies being the original 1933 version of ''King Kong'' and another one is from the 1937 Laurel and Hardy film, ''Way Out West'').

Logo: On a space background with white, red, and orange stars, we see an object zooming towards the center of the screen from the top. It rotates into the middle to reveal that it is the "Nostalgia Merchant" logo, a yellow circle with a large light blue square overlapping it, all of this being covered by a white border. Inside the yellow circle is the black word "ThE", and "NOSTALGIA MERCHANT" in red with a black outline. The byline "A DIVISION OF MEDIA HOME ENTERTAINMENT. A Heron International Company" fades in below. | Logo: On a space background with white, red, and orange stars, we see an object zooming towards the center of the screen from the top.
