*''The Trials of Rosie O'Neill'': The logo appears in a still shot with gold text against a brown background. On some episodes, the logo is smaller.

*''Texas Wheelers'': A full-screen scene has a black-and-white kitten looking from around a corner where there is a water pipe and meows (though not the same as Mimsie's meow). The company's name appears over the scene in the same font as the closing credits. Several animated variants that have been rumored to exist including:

**In a ''Chicago Tribune'' article in 1985, a series finale variant is described where "In the final episode...an animated version of the kitten staggered from behind a wagon wheel and dropped dead".
**According to Jacob Dennis-Oehling (and several others) on YouTube, there was another version where Mimsie dressed as a cowboy shoots some guns in the circle. He also describes another version of the finale variant, in which Mimsie is instead shot to death. The Paley Center for Media's print of the finale doesn't have a logo however.
*''Friends and Lovers'': At least the final episode is said to involve the MTM circle turning upside down. Awaiting confirmation/denial/description.
*''Just Between Friends'': The logo is zoomed out and is a still image. Mimsie's head is turned away, pre-meowing had the logo animated as usual.

*''MTM Christmas Gag Reel'': Made for the MTM staff, this combo of the popular shows at the time feature two variants on the MTM logo. One near the beginning is the standard logo, only Mimsie says "Wooooooow!" (possibly taken from Julie Kavner's line as Brenda on Rhoda). Later, the wreathed version of the logo appears, except now Mimsie gives a female shriek.

*The variant seen on ''Bailey Kipper's P.O.V.'' is extremely rare, and is only found from original airings of the show, as said show was never released on home video.

'''Legacy:''' This is highly regarded among many for being a cute parody of the MGM logo, as well as featuring good animation for the '70s, a neat design, and multiple custom variations. However, the ''St. Elsewhere'' series finale logo is rather infamous for its depressing nature; the ''Texas Wheelers'' finale variant may be the same way if it exists or is discovered.
