*The 1987 version used to be very common, as it was seen on many family programs on ABC, Disney Channel, ABC Family, Disney XD, and other Disney-produced shows on any network, but it has grown strongly uncommon due to a lot of them having never been re-aired or reissued on home video over the years. However, it is still available on shows with this logo on Disney+, as well as certain video releases of them, though not all of them retain this logo and either use the black-screen copyright notice or the 1986 logo instead. Among others, it can be seen on episodes of ''Recess'' on DVD (only the ones as bonus features on the movies, however; the actual movies themselves don't have this logo), and at the end of the ''Aladdin'' sequel ''The Return of Jafar'', even on Blu-ray copies. | * The 1987 version used to be very common, as it was seen on many family programs on ABC, Disney Channel, ABC Family, Disney XD, and other Disney-produced shows on any network, but it has grown strongly uncommon due to a lot of them having never been re-aired or reissued on home video over the years.
