*The Sprout reairings of the tenth season of ''Barney & Friends'' use the very last part of the logo's sequence (ie. the HiT block is already there after the animation). Those aired originally on PBS use the original variant with animation. The ninth season reairings on Sprout plaster the previous logo with this one. However, the 10th season episodes aired on Universal Kids in the US, Canada, Mexico and Columbia use the previous logo (the HD version used in 2006-07). | *The Sprout reairings of the tenth season of ''Barney & Friends'' use the very last part of the logo's sequence (ie. the HiT block is already there after the animation).

<u>Availability</u>: Extremely common. Seen on shows such as ''Fireman Sam'', ''Barney & Friends'' from the 2007-09 seasons, ''Bob the Builder'', and ''Thomas & Friends''. The still logo can be found on games, some DVD releases and sometimes at the end of shows, while the still Worldwide Distribution version appears at the end of some ''Bob the Builder'' and ''The Likeaballs'' episodes, as well as on ''Wobbly Land'' and ''Pic Me''. The long version most commonly appears at the start of UK DVDs, ''Fraggle Rock'' and ''Shaun the Sheep'' DVDs. The HiT DVD of Wallace & Gromit in Three Amazing Adventures also contains it. This version is also present on the ''Frances'' compilation ''Bedtime for Frances DVD & Book collection''. The third variant can be found on several shows such as ''Mike the Knight''. The very short variant can be seen on 2008 episodes of ''Fireman Sam'' and on some airings of ''Wishbone''. Even though the Mattel Creations logo now appears in place of the logo at the start of DVD releases and at end of their shows, the HiT logo still appears on DVD releases when "Play All" is selected and at the end of DVDs. | <u>Availability</u>: Extremely common.
