* In 2008, the logo was given a more "enhanced" look with more realistic effects, just like its network television counterpart. If one looks closely, parts of the "T" and "E" are perfectly straight. However, some Adult Swim and TBS airings of ''Family Guy'' S7-10 episodes use the 1992 logo with the byline and the 1995 fanfare. | * In 2008, the logo was given a more "enhanced" look with more realistic effects, just like its network television counterpart.

* On some prints of ''The Simpsons'' episodes between 1992 and 1994, the 1992 logo fades in near the end of the zoom out, and then fades out a few seconds later. It's similar in a way to the 1994/5 variant with the byline, barring the fade in at the start. Channel 4's print of the episode "Homer the Heretic" features this variation. | * On some prints of ''The Simpsons'' episodes between 1992 and 1994, the 1992 logo fades in near the end of the zoom out, and then fades out a few seconds later.
