Some NCircle DVDs of ''Heathcliff'' retain this logo. Also seen when Boomerang and Atlanta's WATC 18 reran ''Dennis The Menace''. | ||
*The variant with the closing theme appeared on some shows, such as ''The Real Ghostbusters'' (1st season and syndicated episodes), ''Kissyfur'', ''The Get Along Gang'', and the ''Liberty and the Littles'' movie, among others.

This variant is also intact on uploads of ''The Adventures of Teddy Ruxpin'' to the official [[The Jim Henson Company]] YouTube channel. | *The variant with the closing theme appeared on some shows, such as ''The Real Ghostbusters'' (1st season and syndicated episodes), ''Kissyfur'', ''The Get Along Gang'', and the ''Liberty and the Littles'' movie, among others.
