*On at least one airing of the ''Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!'' episode "A Night of Fright is No Delight" on Cartoon Network CEE (around 2013), the music from the 1968 "Zooming H-B" logo is heard over the "Action" logo. | *On at least one airing of the ''Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!'' episode "A Night of Fright is No Delight" on Cartoon Network CEE (around 2013), the music from the 1968 "Zooming H-B" logo is heard over the "Action" logo. | ||
*On some episodes of ''The Addams Family'' (1992 series) aired on Boomerang Pan-Europe in Polish (such as "Little Big Thing/Little Bad Riding Hood/Metamorphosister"), the music from the short version of the 1987 Turner Entertainment Co. "CGI Globe" logo is heard over the "Comedy" logo. The most likely explanation is that for the respective episodes, the end credits soundtrack was sourced from a different master of the series that only had the Turner logo afterwards (and they forgot to adjust the audio of the logo). | *On some episodes of ''The Addams Family'' (1992 series) aired on Boomerang Pan-Europe in Polish (such as "Little Big Thing/Little Bad Riding Hood/Metamorphosister"), the music from the short version of the 1987 Turner Entertainment Co.

*On Cartoon Network CEE airings of ''The Scooby-Doo Show'' in Romanian, around 2010-2011, that had the credits air with a pushback ECP next bumper, the music from the end credits plays for a few seconds before cutting to the PAL-pitched 1979 "Swirling Star" music. This is because during the split-screen formatting and editing, the video footage of the 1995 European "Turner print" credits was used with the audio from the NTSC unrestored masters of the show, thus making the audio and video out-of-sync. A similar problem also occurred in airings with the Hungarian audiotrack, where the audio from the 1987 Turner "Globe" logo was plastered instead over the logo. | *On Cartoon Network CEE airings of ''The Scooby-Doo Show'' in Romanian, around 2010-2011, that had the credits air with a pushback ECP next bumper, the music from the end credits plays for a few seconds before cutting to the PAL-pitched 1979 "Swirling Star" music.

*On ''The Flintstones'' episode "The Big Move", the 1979 "Swirling Star" sound was used over the "Comedy" version due to editing errors (as likely, the audio track of an 1980s unrestored master was used for that episode).

**The same thing also happened on Boomerang Germany airings of ''The Jetsons'', as the channel used the same intro and credits from the same episode on all showings (a common practice for CN and Boomerang overseas airings, for the matter).
