=== Background === | |||
Playhouse Disney was launched on May 8, 1997 as [[Disney Channel Originals|Disney Channel]]'s answer to [[Nick Jr. Productions|Nick Jr.]] However, this network never used it's own real on-screen logo until 2001; just the normal Disney Channel logo of the time. On February 14, 2011, Playhouse Disney was relaunched as "[[Disney Junior Originals|Disney Junior]]", and gained a 24-hour channel replacing SOAPnet on most providers since March 22, 2012, although SOAPnet still survived on some providers as an "automated" network until its end on January 1, 2014. | |||

However, the second version is kept on older VHS tapes and DVDs of pre-2007 Playhouse Disney shows such as ''Stanley'', ''JoJo's Circus'', ''Higglytown Heroes'', ''Rolie Polie Olie'', ''The Koala Brothers'' and ''Charlie and Lola'' (the latter 3 only used this logo on US prints); although ''Handy Manny'' and ''Mickey Mouse Clubhouse'' used the ending theme played over this logo, and ''My Friends Tigger and Pooh'' used the 2002 Disney Channel logo instead of this one. On Disney Junior (the channel), this was found in split-screen credits of ''Rolie Polie Olie'', most likely due to a processing error. This also made a brief appearance on an episode of ''Little Einsteins'' before the Disney Junior logo was shown, likely due to an editing error. During Playhouse Disney's last few years, this was used in tandem with the next logo. | ||

Don't expect to find this on Disney Junior, because they tend to plaster over old logos with the Disney Junior Originals logo. Surprisingly, this logo is kept intact on Disney+ prints of these shows. Also found on 2007-2010 Playhouse Disney DVDs and 2011-present Disney Junior DVDs of older Playhouse Disney programming such as the 2013 DVD release of ''Little Einsteins: Incredible Shrinking Adventure''. | ||
