'''Music/Sounds Variant:''' In some cases, the 1987 logo has often been spotted with the 1993 music and vice versa.
'''Music/Sounds Variants:'''  
*In some cases, the 1987 logo has often been spotted with the 1993 music and vice versa.
*A silent version also exists.
*When Ion Television reran ''Who's the Boss?'', the network's generic theme played over it, with the logo's animation being in warp speed as well.  


'''Availability:''' Rare, although it lived for 21 years. During its run, either variant could be spotted on shows such as ''The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show'', ''Underdog and Friends'', ''Bewitched'', ''Where on Earth is Carmen Sandiego?'', and the 1992 syndie print package of the 1986 ''Dennis the Menace'' cartoon, among others; it remains unknown if either version could be seen on late-1980s/early-1990s prints of ''The Abbott and Costello Show''. The 1987 logo appears on seasons 1-4 of ''Coach'' on DVD, as well as [[Universal Studios Home Entertainment|MCA/Universal Home Video]] tapes of the show. The 1993 logo was plastered on pretty much every show the Program Exchange offers to TV stations, but has since became less common. The 1993 logo was also spotted on a 2002 rerun of ''Fantasy Island'' on TV Land, after the [[Sony Pictures Television]] logo. It is also preserved on the [[Mill Creek Entertainment]] DVD of the 1986 ''Dennis the Menace'' cartoon.

It also used to be seen at the end of ''Who's the Boss?'' reruns on Nick@Nite, TV Land and Ion Television. Also seen on a syndicated print of ''What's Happening Now?!?''.  


'''Editor's Note:''' Both variants of the logo are favorites of many for their solid CGI animation and music.

It used to be seen at the end of syndicated reruns of ''NewsRadio'' and ''Beakman's World'' as well. It often shows up at the end of ''Funniest Pets and People'' episodes on Laff and Qubo, whenever reran.  


'''Editor's Note:''' Not a popular logo by fans of the previous logos. The animation and music are very simple, the swoosh is just tacky, and the logo simply doesn't look right without arrows.
