'''Trivia:''' If one looks closely when the text crossfades in the first version of the logo, the words "Produced by Walt Disney" can be seen. A clear image of this does not exist, but it can be seen [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6NDkV33_qyU here].

* There is a variant that completely lacks any animation, leaving the text entirely still with no cross-fading. The ''Winnie the Pooh Learning'' videos had this still logo as well as UK Disney Cinemagic overseas airing of the season 1 ''Timon & Pumbaa'' episode ''Yukon Con'' and some season 1 ''Jungle Cubs'' episodes (plastering the 2nd logo), though other shows (such as VHS releases of ''The Little Mermaid: The Series'' (plastering the previous logo), several shows on Disney+, overseas airings of ''Recess'', ''Dinosaurs'', some episodes of ''Timon & Pumbaa'', the ''Jungle Cubs'' episodes ''Feather Brains''/''Benny & Clyde'', ''Waiting For Baloo''/''Tree for Two'', and ''Nice Tiger''/''Sleepless in the Jungle'', and iTunes releases of ''Darkwing Duck'') may have animation but no text fading.

'''FX/SFX:''' The "sparkles", and the text fading. In other cases (on some UK airings or mainly VHS tapes or Betamax tapes), it's completely still.

'''Music/Sounds:''' A series of ascending pings. There was also a variant where it used different-sounding pings (sounding like a super high-pitched version of the theme), the 1985 synth theme or the 1988 long and warp-speed themes from the previous logo (both likely due to plastering jobs), the closing theme of the show as was the case of most shows (such as ''Raw Toonage'', ''Marsupilami'', and other Disney shows, starting in 1988), or none as was the case with the DVD's and Disney+ prints of ''Disney's Adventures of the Gummi Bears''.

'''Logo:''' On a {{Font color|#FFD900|yellow}} background with {{Font color|pink|pink}} Mickey silhouette patterns, we see Mickey, in a tuxedo, stand on a {{Font color|blue|blue}} filmstrip with ''Steamboat Willie'' in it, over a {{Font color|hotpink|pink}} circle with the words "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''SIXTY YEARS WITH YOU'''}}" in it. A {{Font color|limegreen|green}} banner is behind him reading "'''MICKEY'''". Underneath is the blue text "{{Font color|#2E8CFF|WALT DiSNEY {{Font|Times New Roman|Television}}}}", with "{{Font color|#2E8CFF|WALT DiSNEY}}" in the corporate "Disney" font. Mickey then winks and then blinks his eyes twice.

'''Logo:''' Against a white background, we see Goofy appear upside down from the top-left corner with a quizzical look on his face. As his expression changes from a confused one to an excited one, the logo zooms out to reveal it's on a white filmstrip, superimposed on a {{Font color|#0037DE|shaded blue}} gradient background decorated with black drawings of the typical castle. The text "WALT DiSNEY {{Font|Times New Roman|Television}}" (with "WALT DiSNEY" in its corporate font) can be seen below the white filmstrip, then after a few seconds it changes to the "{{Font|Times New Roman|Distributed By Buena Vista Television}}" text.
