'''Logo:''' On a white background, we see Kermit the Frog over the words “MUPPET HOME VIDEO”, in the same fonts as in the logo in the PBV clip, except “Muppet” is orange and “Home Video” is black. | '''Logo:''' On a white background, we see Kermit the Frog over the words “MUPPET HOME VIDEO”, in the same fonts as in the logo in the PBV clip, except “Muppet” is orange and “Home Video” is black. | ||

'''Logo:''' On a navy blue space background, a pink line draws along the bottom. Suddenly, an odd white outline blob pops up, and it's filled in to reveal Kermit the Frog, who stares in awe as two comets shoot over his head in opposite directions. Then, large text reading "MUPPET", in a font similar to the logo for The Muppet Show and colored yellow-orange, flies in and settles over Kermit. Pink text reading "HOME VIDEO" then fades in below, with Kermit between both words. He then stares at them and nods his head before fading out. | '''Logo:''' On a navy blue space background, a pink line draws along the bottom.

'''Variant:''' There is an extended version with Kermit also looking down at the line. At the end, all of the logo except for Kermit (still moving his head even after the screen goes black), the "HOME VIDEO" text, and the line disappear, and then the listed items disappear after it. The logo is also darker. | '''Variant:''' There is an extended version with Kermit also looking down at the line.

'''Logo:''' The animation for the Playhouse Video logo animates as normal complete with synth music. However, all of a sudden the white background changes to a blue-red gradient background, then, as the Playhouse logo flies and rolls to the top left, rings and the letters in the word "Muppet", in the same font as the previous logo, but colored green, fly in all over the screen, but then they settle down to the center, and an oblong shape flies in, along with a dark yellow diamond that reads "Jim Henson's". When the logo is complete, the oblong shape has chasing lights on it, like a marquee you see at a theater. | '''Logo:''' The animation for the Playhouse Video logo animates as normal complete with synth music.
