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?!?''. | ||
