'''Logo:''' We see a river scene in a forest at sunset for a second, and then pan up to a space background (a la the 1998 [[Lyrick Studios]] logo), where a {{color|lime|mint}} colored spark draws the words "{{color|lime|''Jim Henson''}}" in the signature font, while a comet creates the dot above "''{{color|lime|i}}''". Then, "HOME ENTERTAINMENT" appears flashing in on below the line.

*** On ''Muppets Party Cruise'', the dark widescreen version is squished to a 4:3 ratio and it fades in at the point where the spark writes the words, leaving the first part of the music to play on a black screen.
* There is a version of this logo where the view of the swamp is longer before panning up to the sky and the spark draws the signature in {{color|red}} instead of {{color|lime|green}}. The dot color created above the "i" by the comet is also changed to {{color|red}}. Another version of it, shown before at the end, has the white balance for the logo re-adjusted.
* On the ''Frances'' home video compilation ''Bedtime for Frances'', the view of the swamp is longer before panning up to the sky and the spark draws the signature in {{color|red}} instead of {{color|lime|green}}. The dot color created above the "i" by the comet is also changed to {{color|red}}, and "HOME ENTERTAINMENT" is in cyan. Another version of it, shown before at the end, has the white balance for the logo re-adjusted.

'''Music/Sounds Variant:''' On ''Muppets Party Cruise'', the tail end of the DVD variation of the 9th [[Columbia TriStar Home Entertainment]] logo theme is heard at the beginning for some reason, which likely means the logo was ripped directly from a DVD release of ''Kermit's Swamp Years''.
* The logo's music is high-pitched on the UK VHS of ''Kermit's Swamp Years''.
