*This logo was redone for movies in 1995. The notable differences are: the words are now done in CGI and are in copper, the city and sky look nicer, the hills have been changed to mountains and the sky is more blueish (it was purple on the standard version). The byline "A COX C O M P A N Y" appears beneath the logo. A short version was used on TV around this time.
*When Rysher merged with Television Program Enterprises in 1993, the text read "{{font|Times New Roman|R<u>YSHE</u>R TPE}}", with a line under "{{font|Times New Roman|<u>YSHE</u>}}", and the text shrinks as it sets.

'''Logo:''' Modeled on the last logo, this time with more detail; the lights in the buildings flicker on and off and we see car lights moving, the hills have been changed to mountains, and the sky is more blueish (it was purple on the last logo). The words are now done in CGI and are in copper, with "RYSHER" fading in with a zoom-in and "ENTERTAINMENT" fades in. The byline "A COX C O M P A N Y" appears beneath the logo, and shortly afterwards, a comet streaks through the sky.
'''Variants:'''
*Early versions don't use the Cox byline. The "ENTERTAINMENT" text was also larger.
*A short version was used on TV around this time, which starts before the comet shoots through the sky. The longer version was primarily seen on some feature films produced by Rysher from 1995-1997, as well as a few TV shows.
*Feature films often had the text made smaller, depending on what aspect ratio it was shot in.
'''Music/Sounds:''' None.
*CBS airings of ''Nash Bridges'' and ''Four Corners'' used a generic theme.
*On some shows, the first logo's music can be heard.
'''Availability:'''
*The logo can be seen on the first 3 seasons of ''Nash Bridges'' (except for season 4, which is plastered by the CBS Television Distribution logo, H&I airings use the DVD prints), seasons 4-6 of ''Highlander'', all episodes of ''Highlander: The Raven'', and was used on the first season of ''Judge Mills Lane'' from 1998-99.
*Films that use this logo include ''Destiny Turns on the Radio'', ''Three Wishes'', ''White Man's Burden'', ''Private Parts'', ''Zeus and Roxanne'', ''It Takes Two'', ''Turbulence'', ''House Arrest'', ''The Eighteenth Angel'', and ''Kingpin''.
*Also appears on international prints of [[HBO Films|HBO TV-movies]] from the time period, such as ''Rasputin''.
