'''Logo:''' On a {{Color|#00FFE9|teal}} marble-like background, a {{color|silver}} disc rotates into place. Then four {{color|lightblue|light blue}} lasers strike it from different directions. Then, the camera pans to an aerial view as the word "{{color|silver|'''HiT'''}}", in a tall {{Color|silver}} font, zooms out from the centre from an angle, then rotates to face the viewers. As it does so, the four lasers rotate clockwise and "'''{{color|blue|COMMUNICATIONS PLC}}'''" types itself in, in {{color|blue}}.

'''Logo:''' On a black background, the {{Color|#8FC5D5|bluish-gray}} letters of "'''HIT'''" fly outwards to the centre to form a result similar to the previous logo, but with thinner letters and no dot. Below it all is "Distributed by HIT Entertainment PLC." in white, sometimes replaced with a black bar and the text changed to match the country's language.

'''Logo:''' On a shady {{color|dimgray|grey}} background, we see the word "'''{{color|blue|HiT}}'''" in the same font as the HIT Communications logo in {{color|blue}}, with "ENTERTAINMENT PLC" written vertically next to the T in white. A hole is cut out in between the letters above the I for a spinning globe. Under that we see the URL "www.hitentertainment.com" and  byline “DISTRIBUTED WORLDWIDE BY HIT ENTERTAINMENT PLC". There is a spotlight from the top left of the screen, casting a shadow of the logo on the floor.

'''Logo:''' On a black background, we see a spinning globe with a {{color|gold|yellowish}} glow, suspended above some {{color|blue}} blocks. We then pan away from the blocks as the globe's glow fades out. The blocks zoom out, revealing to be the HIT logotype as seen in the previous logos, with the globe positioned in the hole of said logotype. The globe continues to rotate.

'''Variant:''' On ''Professor Bubble'', a <u>still version</u> with "ENTERTAINMENT PLC" in {{color|grey}} is used on a white background, and the screen is shared with the GMTV and Look Lively TV logos.

'''Logo:''' On a {{color|deepskyblue|blue}} background with stripes and shines, we see a {{color|gold|yellow}}/{{color|orange}} gradient ribbon flying around from the right edge of the screen. Then the ribbon makes its way to form the spring (or tunnel) and an explosion occurs. After that, we see more colourful ribbons (but smaller) and some fireworks and bubbles come out of the tunnel. Later, the camera moves into the centre of the tunnel, then it disappears and from its place comes the globe which zooms into the hole in the HIT logo from the previous logos in {{color|deepskyblue|light blue}}, which fades in the same time as the globe comes. As it does so, the globe spins. The text "ENTERTAINMENT PLC" is written vertically next to the "T" in white, just like the 2nd and 3rd logos until it fades out.

'''Logo:''' On a {{color|blue}} background, we see the HIT logo (as seen in the 2nd logo), but without "PLC". A moving glow of light surrounds the logo. Sometimes, a copyright notice appears below. Like the 2nd logo, sometimes the URL "www.hitentertainment.com" and byline "DISTRIBUTED WORLDWIDE BY HIT ENTERTAINMENT PLC" are seen below the logo. Sometimes it differently reads "DISTRIBUTED WORLDWIDE BY HIT ENTERTAINMENT".

'''Logo:''' On a white background, we see a CGI block with "'''H'''" (white on {{color|red}}), "{{color|blue|'''i'''}}" ({{color|blue}} on {{color|gold|yellow}}), and "'''T'''" (white on {{color|blue}}), with "'''{{color|red|HiT entertainment}}'''" below it. Then, all of a sudden, two more of the same blocks come out from behind the main block, and they all jump around as the company name fades out. The blocks stack to reveal the "HiT" name before the two blocks (left and right) disappear. As it leaves only one block, the block looks around before becoming still as the company name fades back in below.

'''Trivia:''' If you were to take the audio from the original version, then take the audio from the short variant and/or one of the short versions, you would get a slightly extended version of this theme.
